Always on my mind

Ha sonado en la radio al entrar al parking. Radio sucia y sin antena. Que me descoloca cada día varias veces al perder la señal.

Este Always on my mind de Elvis Presley (1972). Versión de la canción de Brenda Lee del mismo año.

Y me ha recordado la versión de lo Pet Shop Boys de 1987. De cuando conocí la canción. Con el tiempo, nada que ver con la "original" de Elvis. Aunque ya un tanto pasado, Elvis es mucho Elvis. Y que conste que la versión de los Pet Shop Boys me gusta mucho...

Y me ha recordado muchas cosas. Y me ha recordado buenos momentos, de esos que siempre mantienes en la mente, en la memoria más immediata. Eso de los que siempre te llevas la lengua a lo labios y con regocijo piensas "ayyyyy". Buenos recuerdos.

Lo intento. Lo reconozco. No lo evito. Me conmueve.

You were always on my mind.

Maybe I didnt treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didnt love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Maybe I didnt hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
Im so happy that youre mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, Im sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
