Suzanne ((Adapted from: Suzanne (by Judy Collins) - 1966)) Composer(s): Leonard Cohen - Fabrizio De André Performer(s): Fabrizio De André - 1972

Nel suo posto in riva al fiume Suzanne ti ha voluto accanto e ora ascolti andar le barche ora puoi dormirle al fianco sì lo sai che lei è pazza ma per questo sei con lei E ti offre il tè e le arance che ha portato dalla Cina e proprio mentre stai per dirle che non hai amore da offrirle lei è già sulla tua onda e fa che il fiume ti risponda che da sempre siete amanti E tu vuoi viaggiarle insieme vuoi viaggiarle insieme ciecamente perché sai che le hai toccato il corpo il suo corpo perfetto con la mente
E Gesù fu un marinaio finché camminò sull'acqua e restò per molto tempo a guardare solitario dalla sua torre di legno e poi quando fu sicuro che soltanto agli annegati fosse dato di vederlo disse :"Siate marinai finché il mare vi libererà" E lui stesso fu spezzato ma più umano, abbandonato nella nostra mente lui non naufragò E tu vuoi viaggiargli insieme vuoi viaggiargli insieme ciecamente forse avrai fiducia in lui perché ti ha toccato il corpo con la mente
E Suzanne ti dà la mano ti accompagna lungo il fiume porta addosso stracci e piume presi in qualche dormitorio il sole scende come miele su di lei donna del porto che ti indica i colori tra la spazzatura e i fiori scopri eroi tra le alghe marce e bambini nel mattino che si sporgono all'amore e così faranno sempre e Suzanne regge lo specchio E tu vuoi viaggiarle insieme vuoi viaggiarle insieme ciecamente perché sai che ti ha toccato il corpo il tuo corpo perfetto con la mente

Suzanne tar dig med Hem till sig nära floden Du kan höra båtar ljuda Sent på natten bredvid henne När du vet att hon är tokig Är det därför du är där Och hon bjuder te och frukter Komma ändå ifrån Kina Och just när du ska säga Jag har ingen kärlek till dig Får hon in dig på sin våglängd Och hon låter floden svara Att du alltid älskat henne Och visst vill du gå med henne När du följer är allt väl Och hon vet att det är sanning Att du har snuddat hennes kropp med din själ Jesus var en sjöman Den gång han gick på vattnet och hans ögon sökte länge Från ett ödsligt torn av trä Och när han visste säkert Bara drunknade har kunskap Sa han alla ska bli sjömän Tills dess havet ger dem frihet Men själv så var han bruten Långt innan himlen syntes försakad Nästan mänsklig för sjunken för Din visdom Som en sten Och visst vill du följa honom När du följer är allt väl Och kanhända är det sanning Att han har snuddat vid din kropp Med sin själ Nu tar Suzanne din hand Och hon leder dig till floden Hon är klädd i lump och fjädrar Som nå'n annan burit förut Solen flödar lugnt som honung Ner på din och flodens drottning Och hon visar för ditt öga Där bland sopor och bland blommor Finns det hjältar mitt bland sj8öräs Det finns barn i någons morgon Som är svaga för nå'ns kärlek Där finns svagheten för evigt Och Suzanne häller spegeln och visst vill du gå med henne När ni följs åt är allt väl Och du vet att det är sanning Att hon har snuddat vid din kropp Med sin själ

Susan ta'r dig ned sig til sit hus nær ved havet du ka' høre fjerne skibe du ka' lægge dig hos hende og du ved at hun er småskør det er derfor du er her og hun gi'r dig te og frugter som er fløjet ind fra Kina og da du vil sige at du ingenting ka gi' hende så hun får dig til at lytte og du hører havet svare du har elsket hende altid
Og du ved at I skal følges du vil følge hende blindt og du ved hun stoler på dig du har rørt en krop så fuldendt med dit sind
Og Jesus selv var sømand da han vandrede på havet og han spejdede langt og længe fra et ensomt tårn af tømmer og da han endelig indså at kun druknede ku' se ham sa'e han: "nu er alle sømænd indtil havet vil befri dem" men selv brød han sammen før at himlens dør ku' åbnes forladt ligesom et menneske sank han gennem din bevidsthed som en sten
Og du ved at I skal følges du vil følges med ham blindt og du tror du stoler på ham han har rørt din krop så fuldendt med dit sind
Susan ta'r din hånd og hun fører dig til havet hun er klædt i fjer og pjalter som hun har fra frelsens hære og nu spreder solen honning over havnen sin veninde og hun lærer dig at søge og hun lærer dig at søge mellem affald mellem blomster der er helte skjult i søgræs der er børn i hvert et daggry og de griber efter ømhed og de griber dig for altid imens hun holder spejlet
og du ved at i skal følges du vil følge hende blindt og du stoler kun på hende du har rørt en krop så fuldendt med dit sind

Titles In Other Languages: 1964 - Obsession (by Bob Asklöf) 1965 - Sospetto (by Terry Stafford)
Everytime you kiss me I'm still not certain that you love me Every time you hold me I'm still not certain that you care Though you keep on saying you really, really, really love me Do you speak the same words to someone else when I'm not there?
Suspicion torments my heart Suspicion keeps us apart Suspicion why torture me?
Everytime you call me and tell me we should meet tomorrow I can't help but think that you're meeting someone else tonight Why should our romance just keep on causing me such sorrow Why am I so doubtful whenever you are out of sight?
Suspicion torments my heart Suspicion keeps us apart Suspicion why torture me?
Darling, if you love me, I beg you wait a little longer Wait until I drive all these foolish fears out of my mind How I hope and pray that our love will keep on growing stronger Maybe I'm suspicious 'cause true love is so hard to find
Suspicion torments my heart Suspicion keeps us apart Suspicion why torture me?

Susan When She Tried Composer(s): Don Reid First release by: The Statler Brothers - 1974 and multiple other artists
I got over Charlotte Thompson, Goldie Johnson Lord they done me wrong I took it hard with Peggy Harper She hurt me bad, but not for long There's just one I remember Makes me feel funny down inside I'd trade 'em all for just one hour Of Susan when she tried
No, there's never been a woman Who could make me weak inside And give me what I needed Like Susan when she tried
It gets worse in the summer When the nights are hot and long And it's bad in December When they play those Christmas songs So if you ask me and I don't tell you Bet your sweet bottom dollar I lied 'Cause there's never been one better Than Susan when she tried
Sus Ojos Se Cerraron Composer(s): Carlos Gardel - Alfredo Le Pera Performer(s): Carlos Gardel
Sus ojos se cerraron y el mundo sigue andando su boca que era mía ya no me besa más Se apagaron los ecos de su reír sonoro y es cruel este silencio que me hace tanto mal Fue mía la piadosa dulzura de sus manos que dieron a mis penas caricias de bondad y ahora que la evoco hundido en mi quebranto las lágrimas trenzadas se niegan a brotar y no tengo el consuelo de poder llorar
¿Por qué tus alas tan cruel quemó la vida? ¿Por qué esta mueca siniestra de la suerte? Quise abrigarla, y más pudo la muerte ¡Cómo me duele y se ahonda mi herida! Yo sé que ahora vendrán caras extrañas con su limosna de alivio a mi tormento Todo es mentira, mentira ese lamento ¡hoy está solo mi corazón!
Como perros de presa las penas traicioneras celando su cariño galopaban detrás y escondida en las aguas de su mirada buena la muerte agazapada marcaba su compás En vano yo alentaba febril una esperanza clavó en mi carne viva sus garras el dolor y mientras en las calles en loca algarabía ¡el carnaval del mundo gozaba y se reía! ¡Burlándose el destino me robó su amor!
Surrender To Me Composer(s): Richard Marx - Ross Vannelli Performer(s): Ann Wilson & Robin Zander and multiple other artists
Is it that we've been together much too long?
The answer may not be in black and white We're always trying to prove who's right or wrong Yet now we're giving up without a fight But I know when you're gone I'll wish I held on
So, baby, surrender to me There'll be no holding back now So, baby, surrender to me tonight
I don't want our love to cause you so much pain If this is how it's going to be, I'll walk away Oh, neither one of us should ever say goodbye Let's forget about the past and who's to blame 'Cause when this is all gone We'll wish we'd held on
So, baby, surrender to me There'll be no holding back now So, baby, surrender to me tonight
How could this love be in danger That used to be so good, so right? To think that fate could make us strangers Has thrown me in your arms tonight!
So, baby, surrender to me There'll be no holding back now So, baby, surrender to me tonight So, baby, surrender ...
À Ma Femme ((Italian Version: A Mia Moglie (by Charles Aznavour) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand le soc de roc de saisons Sue nos visages et sur nos fronts Aura creusé de lourds sillons De rides Quand nos enfants ayant grandi Auront abandonné le nid Laissant nos curs affaiblis Le vide Quand nos gestes seront plus lents Que nous verrons passé le temps Avec un air étrangement Lucide Quand nous n'aurons plus d'avenir Nous remuerons des souvenirs Terre qui ne peut devenir Aride
Quand à pas lents et incertains Nous visiterons des jardins Qui comme nos fronts seront peints De givre Quand au prix de milliers d'effort Nous chercherons sans doute encore À tuer le temps déjà mort De vivre Quand nous ne serons désormais Que deux vies liées sans projet Nous ouvrirons avec regret Le livre Que nous aurons au fil des ans Écrit sur les pages du temps Ou deux mots manqueront pourtant À suivre
Quand enfin la vie parcourue Prêt a entrer dans l'inconnu Je te regarderai perdue Et blême Quand dans ton regard je verrai Que sans notre amour désormais Tes jours ne seront plus jamais Les mêmes Quand mes yeux ne verront plus rien Que ma main cherchera ta main À l'heure où parler sera un Problème Après avoir accepté Dieu Juste avant de fermer les yeux Encore une fois si je peux Je te dirai comme un adieu
Surrender ((aka I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) (by MxPx) - 2009)) Composer(s): Rick Nielsen First release by: Cheap Trick - 1978 Covered by multiple other artists
Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you She also told me, stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that's going round
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay
Father says, your mother's right, she's really up on things Before we married, mommy served in the wacs in the Philippines Now, I had heard the wacs recruited old maids for the war But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year? Ev'ry time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear? When I woke up, mom and dad are rolling on the couch Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my kiss records out
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay

Guarda il mare com´e bello!
