A Silent Night With You (Midwinter Graces) - Tori Amos

Y finalmente [me] llegaron las Gracias de mediados de invierno... ¡y con 33º de calor!

Me volví a las campanas y a la nieve, al azul y al frío. Y me callé para pasar la noche más silenciosa de mi vida: una tarde rellena de eyaculaciones varias -entre torpes, educadas y aplaudibles- y luego el descanso infinito y maduro de la contemplación callada, pero acompañada.

Me volví fanático del Midwinter Graces, y sobre todo de A Silent Night With You.

Acá la letra:
The radio plays my holiday faves
It takes me back to when our love was new
Young lovers pass me by with their glow
that used to be us not so long ago
You said then, “I just want to spend a silent night with you,
with you, a silent night with you”


Joy to the world your arms kept me warm
night after night in such a cold world
Hear the bells strike
Old pictures instead tell me the past is filling my head
You said then, “I just want to spend a silent night with you,
with you, a silent night with you”


The radio plays my holiday faves
It takes me back to when our love was new
Lost in my daze, you slip past and say,
“Girl, take my hand, see nothing has changed.
Now or Then, I just want to spend a silent night with you
with you, a silent night with you”


All is calm
All is bright
