Bono ha escrito una canción para el cantante italiano Zucchero, es al menos la tercera vez que sabemos de una colaboración como esta de Bono con su amigo de antaño. La nueva canción titulada "Someone Else's Tears", forma parte del último disco del cantante, "Chocabeck", que saliera a la venta el 3 de noviembre.
Las otras colaboraciones de Bono con Zucchero fueron en las canciones "Miserere" y "Blue". También actuaron juntos en el concierto NetAid de 1999, y en el concierto Pavarotti and Friends de 2003.
Someone Else's Tears
(Letra: Bono / Música: Zucchero)
You feel familiar But I’m not sure I know your name I don’t know why I’m telling you this story today A whisper on the breeze I heard a rustle in the trees I need to know and maybe you’ll explain Why I can’t stop crying And nothing is as it appears I can’t stop crying But I’m crying someone else’s tears Someone else’s tears The grapes are gathered The wine is pressed And despite the rain it’s been a good year To walk these fields again In the chapel of our youth we bowed down to beauty and truth I see no reason but maybe you’ll explain Why I can’t stop crying and nothing is as it appears I can’t stop crying but I’m crying someone else’s tears Someone else’s tears |
The red house that we built... It’s still standing... proud The glasses that we filled... Let’s raise them now It might be raining But the sun is gonna burst through the clouds The storm it can be stilled... Let’s go out... But I can’t stop crying As I’m crashing through the gears I can’t stop crying But I’m crying someone else’s tears Someone else’s tears I can’t stop lying Have I been lying all these years? I can’t stop trying To chase away her fears I can’t stop crying, crying, Someone else’s tears |
