Reelin´in the years

Talvez eu esteja abusando dos posts com link de Youtube?
Mas a ocasião é especial.
Hoje começa mais um mês de abril, afinal de contas....
Espero não estar "reelin´ in the years", seja lá o que significa.
E essa é uma música que eu lembrava que era legal
mas agora vejo que é absolutamente legal!
Steely Dan é essa banda de pop sofisticado dos anos 70.
já tive esse cd do Steely Dan, Can´t Buy a Thrill.
Mas troquei pelo Yellow Submarine dos Beatles



STEELY DAN
Reelin´ in the years






Your everlasting summer, and you can see it fadin' fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last
But you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in yourhand
The things you think are precious I can't understand

REFRÃO:
Are you reelin' in the years
Stowin' away the time
Are you gatherin' up the tears
Have you had enough of mine

You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seveteen
In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean
The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned
The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand

Refrão

I've spent a lot of money and I've spent a lot of time
The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind
After all the things we've done and seen you find another man
The things you think are useless I can't understand

Refrão
Are you reelin' in the years
Stowin' away the time
Are you gatherin' up the tears
Have you had enough of mine
