71 Better Days

(Jackson)
Vom Ian Gillan Album One Eye To Morocco

Der rastlose MLJ (Michael Lee Jackson) spielte dies für mich in den ganz frühen Morgenstunden drunten in Darzet (Dorset) während einer seiner irrsinnigen Touren über einen Planeten, der ein wenig wie sein bestes Hemd ist - nicht annähernd groß genug für ihn.

Das hartnäckige Gitarrenthema ist eine stimmungsvolle Schattierung von indigo. Der reife Text erzählt von Angst und Hoffnung.

Better Days

(Jackson)

And we don't have much
But these four walls
And it's just enough
To keep us warm
On those cold winter nights

Let's think about better days
Not what we did
But what we'll do

And we work so hard
Each and every day
We're growing old
We get afraid
You can count on me

Let's think about better days
Not what we did
But what we'll do

And if I had
Only one more day
I'd spend it right here with you

Under a million stars
Our two hearts pound
And that's the only thing
That matters now

We know a few things
About life and death
Pretty soon
We'll learn the rest
I'm in no rush at all

Let's think about better days
Not what we did
But what we'll do

And if I had
Only one more day
I'd spend it right here with you
