Taylor Swift: Ronan, ascolta la nuova commovente canzone su Soundsblog e leggi il testo

Ok, preparate i fazzoletti prima di cliccare Play, io ho singhiozzato al primo ascolto. Vi ho avvertiti.

Come segnalatoci da Vale9001, Taylor Swift ha presentato una nuova canzone durante l’evento benefico Stand Up to Cancer 2012. Si tratta di “Ronan”, un pezzo dedicato a un bambino- appunto Ronan- malato di cancro e scomparso a soli quattro anni.

Un brano da pelle d’oca, ovviamente interpretato magistralmente anche live dalla stessa Taylor, con un testo commovente e straziante. E’ stato scritto dopo aver letto il blog di una giovane madre, Maya Thompson, la madre di Ronan, e che è autrice del testo insieme alla Swift. Ancora non è chiaro se sarà inserito nel nuovo album, Red, dal momento che la tracklist non è stata ancora ufficialmente decisa.

Dopo il salto, la versione video con la traduzione in italiano:

I remember your bare feet,
Down the hallway,
I remember your little laugh,
Racecars on the kitchen floor,
Plastic dinosaurs
I love you to the moon and back,

I remember your blue eyes,
Lookin’ into mine,
Like we had our own secret club,
I remember you dancin’,
Before bed time,
Then jumpin’ on me wakin’ me up,
I can still feel you hold my hand,
Little man,
And even the moment I knew,
You fought it hard like an army guy,

Rememeber I, leaned in and whispered to you,
Come on baby with me,
We’re gonna fly away,
From here,
You were, my best, friend,
For years,

I remember the drive home,
When the blind hope,
Turned to cryin’ and screamin’,
And why, flowers fell up in the worst way,
Don’t know what to say,
To a beautiful, your dyin’,
And it’s about to be Halloween,
You could be anything,
You wanted if you were still here,
I remember the last day,
When I kissed your face,
And whispered in your ear,

Come on baby with me, we’re gonna fly away,
From here,
Out of this curtain, this room, oh this house of grey,
We’ll just disappear,

Come on baby with me, we’re gonna fly away,
From here,
You were my best, friend,
For years,

And what if I’m standin’ in your closet,
Tryin’ to talk to you,
And what if I can’t the hand-me-downs you don’t fit into,
And what if I really thought, some miracle would see us through,
But maybe the miracle, wasn’t even getting one moment, with you,

Come on baby, with me, we’re gonna fly away,
From here,
Come on baby, with me, we’re gonna fly away,
From here,

You were my best, for years,

I remember your barefeet, down the hallway,
I love you to the moon and back,
