You still have an enchanting guitar and voice.

This is a very romantic and heartfelt song. I know it’s unique piece. Playable

This song started out many years ago as a novelty party spoof on blues. I would ad lib the lyrics and improvise an accompaniment on acoustic guitar which meant no two performances were ever the same. See Retrospection’s Facebook page for a sample.

Recently I decided to do a serious blues rock version and this current track has been inspired by the blues rock style of Eric Clapton and the licks by other blues artists. The lyrics still do contain just a little hint of the mischievous fun from the old party days.

Hoy te canto, papá  

Cuando cantaba Mamá
en tu mirar tristeza leía.
No sé si sería verdad
o es que a mis ojos les parecía.

Piensas que puedo querer
más a mamá y no estás en lo cierto.
Los dos para mí sois un ser
pues desde entonces estoy existiendo.

ESTRIBILLO

Y de niño yo recuerdo…
que me sentabas junto a ti,
y me contabas unos cuentos
que solías “discurrir”.
Yo te miraba boquiabierto
y tú sonreías feliz.

---------------------------

Siempre me siento feliz
cuando a mamá le haces caricias.
Jamás se os vio discutir
ni enfadaos ni aun por tonterías.

Gracias por todo papá
por tu bondad, por tu cariño.
También por saberme educar
y dirigirme hacia el buen camino.

ESTRIBILLO

Today I sing to you, dad

When Mom sang
I read sadness in your eyes.
I don't know if it would be true
or it seemed to my eyes.

Do you think that I can love
more to mom and you are not right.
The two of you are a being for me
since then I have been existing.

CHORUS

And as a child I remember...
that you sat me next to you,
and you told me some stories
that you used to “discuss”.
I looked at you open-mouthed
and you smiled happily.

---------------------------

I always feel happy
when you caress mom.
You were never seen arguing
Don't get angry even over trivial things.

Thanks for everything dad
for your kindness, for your affection.
Also for knowing how to educate me
and direct me towards the right path.

CHORUS

HOY TE CANTO, PAPA (Feat. Manuel Palomino)

Morning Breeze - Robert Grigg & Combstead

Trapped

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Tell me straight, don’t twist the truth
Is it me, or just my youth?

You shine me back, a crooked grin
Lines of time upon my skin
Eyes still bright but filled with doubt
What’s this thing they call "burnout"?

Oh, mirror, mirror, talk to me
Are they right, or can’t they see?
Am I fraud or something real?
Tell me what I’m supposed to feel

Mirror sighs, says, "Here we go
Same old dance, same old show
A mind so sharp, yet full of fear
Why won’t you trust what’s written here?"

Mirror, mirror, tell me true
Who to trust and what to do?
Voices pull from left and right
One says "stay," one says "fight."

Mirror laughs, its surface clear
"You trust your doubt but not what’s near
Your hands have built, your mind is true
Why’s that so hard to trust in you?"

Oh, mirror, mirror, I hear you now
A little late, but tell me how?
To trust the voice, to own my name
To stand up tall inside the frame

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
I ain't perfect, but I stand tall
Not the fairest, not the best
But I am me-and that’s my test
Not the fairest, not the best
But I know me-that’s my rest

Mirror, Mirror

En la otra orilla

En la orilla del dolor
sólo tienen frustración
y el anhelo de un mundo mejor.

En la orilla del placer
todo es poco hasta ser
el más fuerte y el que tenga el poder.

Estribillo

Desde la orilla se ve el fulgor
de la riqueza aupada en neón
que nutre la fe y la ilusión.
Todos se echan a la mar
porque piensan que tendrán
por fin un lugar para soñar.

----------------------

No se entiende que huir
del infierno es seguir
el instinto de sobrevivir.

Estribillo

Y se tienen que aguantar
si los quieren explotar
los mismos que los quieren echar.

On the other shore

On the shore of pain
they only have frustration
and the longing for a better world.

On the shore of pleasure
everything is too little until you are
the strongest and the one who has the power.

Chorus

From the shore you can see the glow
of wealth boosted in neon
that nourishes faith and illusion.
Everyone sets out to sea
because they think they will
finally have a place to dream.

----------------------

It is not understood that fleeing
from hell is following
the instinct to survive.

Chorus

And they have to put up with
if they want to exploit them
the same people who want to throw them out.

En la otra orilla (Feat. Hugo Iglesias Olmos)

Mountain of Stars

Esta canción habla de un amor ideal, de ese amor que mucha gente anhela pero muy pocos consiguen, y esos pocos que lo consiguen tienen que luchar para mantenerlo

Se que nuestro Amor

Weren’t we a pair, we two.
So full of life, confident, confused.
Making it up as we go.

Were there still questions? Of course.
Falling off, getting back on that horse.
Making it up as we go.

I can remember that day, long ago, you said you’d always be mine.
We had big plans, still did not know what our tomorrow would bring.
Thirty-five years ago we gave each other rings.

INSTRUMENTAL

I can remember that day, long ago, you said you’d always be mine.
We had big plans, still did not know what our tomorrow would bring.
Thirty-five years ago we gave each other rings.

Sure, we expected the best.
All the while not certain we’d pass that test.
Making it up as we go.
