Ho pensato a lui riascoltando questo brano: la musica della versione inglese è d'una semplicità disarmante, molto più di quella originale... scritta da Toto Cutugno.
Solo che a cantare c'era una delle prove dell'esistenza di Dio: Ray Charles.
It's happening so suddenly it's hurtin'
runnin' through our fingers now desertin'
we built it all on solid ground
but now it's not so certain
don't want to look into your eyes
and see our good love dyin'.
And all the pain and bitterness today
in every single promise we betrayed
the hurt we never noticed till it wouldn't go away
and if you look into my eyes
you're gonna end up cryin'
Good love gone bad
now all our dreams are broken
closing doors that once were open
knowing in our hearts that it's all over
still deep inside you know you wanna stay
but you can't bring back yesterday
when all the good we had is goin' so bad.
Good love gone bad
we stopped believin'
stopped the wanting, stop the needin'
singin' to ourselves that it was over
still deep inside I know I wanna stay
but it's so hard to go out separate ways
when all the good we had is hurtin' so bad
No good guys or no bad guys
Wrong or right
Sometimes things are not so black and white
You hold on till it kills you
or you finally see the light
And if you look into her eyes
nobody is tryin'.
Good love gone bad
now all our dreams are broken
closing doors that once were open
knowing in our hearts that it's all over
still deep inside you know you wanna stay
but you can't bring back yesterday
when all the good we had is goin' so bad.
Good love gone bad
we stopped believin'
stopped the wanting, stop the needin'
singin' to ourselves that it was over
still deep inside I know I wanna stay
but it's so hard to go out separate ways
when all the good we had is hurtin' so bad
No good guys and no bad guys after all
and all I really know
is I still love you.
Good love gone bad
now all our dreams are broken
closing doors that once were open
knowing in our hearts that it's all over
still deep inside you know you wanna stay
but you can't bring back yesterday
when all the good we had is goin' so bad.
Good love gone bad
we stopped believin'
stopped the wanting, stop the needin'
singin' to ourselves that it was over
still deep inside I know I wanna stay
but it's so hard to go out separate ways
when all the good we had is hurtin' so bad
