Empezaré esta entrada explicando porque me he tardado tanto en volver a publicar acá. No es que le haya perdido el gusto a esto de escribir ni nada de eso, mis clases me absorben y hoy estoy abandonando mis estudios porque no puedo contener mis dedos y su adicción bloggera.
Escuchando la radio de internet escuche el coro "Oh It's what you did to me" y no pude evitar ganarle interés a "Hey There Delilah", canción del recientemente conocido grupo "Plain White T's", en la que con una voz... como llamarla? Cautivante... casi lírica. La historia es que me intereso esta canción y me recordó un tema del que siempre quise discutir.
"Hey There Delilah"
Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

Buen lector, espero que hayas escuchado la canción que subí, espero porque compensaría el esfuerzo que hice en subirla y, además, para que entiendas que esta es una romántica canción de amor que "elogia" el amor aún cuando es separado por la distancia.
Aunque yo no creo del todo en eso, (es decir, que la distancia no sea capaz de separar a dos personas) es interesante cuando le toca despedirse... Separarte de quien preferirías no hacerlo es un sentimiento que todos esperimentamos; Probablemente empezó como cuando nos quitaron el chupón de niños. Es en cierta forma traumático, no tanto por ella sino por tí mismo, todos los planes que tenías arruinados y derrotados por el temible espacio geografico.
A la hora de la despedida ambos se prometen no olvidarse, escribirse, llamarse, pero saben dentro de ellos que no será lo mismo, la distancia es una despiadada asesina,...
Finalmente pasará lo mismo que le hiciste al chupón, lo mas probable será que lo extrañes pero una vez que te acostumbres a su ausencia, te darás cuenta de que en realidad no era tan bueno como pensabas, disfrutarás la nueva libertad que tienes en la boca, lo fácil que te resulta ahora hablar, comer, etc... El chupón pasará al olvido y será dejado en un pequeño rincón de tus recuerdos, ese rincón que núnca visitarás.
No es que sea voluble pero es que creo que el hombre vive de experiencias, y si tu no participas en las experiencias de alquien... este te olvidará.
No obstante, dejó el beneficio de la duda porque la distancia ya no se mide por kilometros y la tecnología nos consuela y no promete un futuro en donde las distancias geograficas no importen... hasta entonces... sólo nos queda escuchar estas canciones para imaginarnos que la distancia no nos vencerá....
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side
