Letra It was a very good year
Album: Swing when you are winning
Artista: Robbie Williams

When I was seventeen,
it was a very good year
it was a very good year for small.
Town girls and soft summer nights
we´d hide from the light on the village green
when I was seventeen.
When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year
it was a very good year for city
girls who lived up the stairs
with perfume hair that came undone.
When I was twenty-one.
When I was thirty-five, it was a very good year
it was a very good year for blue-blooded.
Girls of independent means
we´d ride in limousines. Their chauffeurs
would drive when I was thirty-five.
But now the days are short, I´m in the
autumn of the year.
And now I think of my life as vintage
wine from fine old kegs.
From the brim to the dregs. It poured
sweet and clear. It was a very good year. |
