Mis canciones favoritas - XX

Canción: "Boys Don't Cry"
Artista: The Cure
Álbum: Boys Don't Cry
Año: 1979

Podría decirse que si algo es la especialidad de The Cure, es su capacidad de componer canciones que son hermosas y a la vez son hits atemporales. Ejemplos hay muchísimos a lo largo de su carrera, y este fue el primero de todos.

No hay mucho que decir sobre esta joya pop de desamor, Robert Smith ya lo dice todo en la letra. De todos modos, los chicos sí lloran.

Letra y tema, right here:



Lyrics:

I would say I'm sorry
if I thought that it would change your mind,
but I know that this time
I have said too much, been too unkind.

I try to laugh about it,
cover it all up with lies,
I try to laugh about it,
hiding the tears in my eyes,
'cause boys don't cry...
Boys don't cry...

I would break down at your feet
and beg forgiveness, plead with you,
but I know that it's too late,
and now there's nothing I can do.

So I try to laugh about it,
cover it all up with lies,
I try to laugh about it,
hiding the tears in my eyes,
'cause boys don't cry...
Boys don't cry...

I would tell you that I love you
if I thought that you would stay,
but I know that it's no use,
that you've already gone away.

Misjudged your limit,
pushed you too far,
took you for granted,
I thought that you needed me more.

Now I would do most anything
to get you back by my side,
but I just keep on laughing,
hiding the tears in my eyes,
'cause boys don't cry...
Boys don't cry...
Boys don't cry...
