Patsy Cline - Why can´t he be you

En 1962 Patsy Cline grabó esta canción, mi favorita de entre las suyas. Una canción de amor desesperado y muy, muy cruel.


He takes me to the places you and I used to go
He tells me over and over that he loves me so
He gives me love that I never got from you
He loves me too, his love is true
Why can't he be you

He never fails to call and tell me I'm on his mind
And I'm lucky to have such a guy; I hear it all the time
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me, too, his love is true
Why can't he be you

He's not the one who dominates my mind and soul
And I should love him so, 'cause he loves me, I know
But his kisses leave me cold

He sends me flowers, calls on the hour, just to prove his love
And my friends say when he's around, I'm all he speaks of
And he does all the things that you would never do
He loves me too, his love is true
Why can't he be you

Patsy never fails to bring the goosebumps.

great song but it sounds like she's singing to an asshole

@ElectricMethod I know what you mean --- have you heard her song "When You Need A Laugh" ? Again, the most PERFECT singing, but such masochistic lyrics! Still, Patsy could do no wrong.......

Terrific song, Patsy was awesome.

Check out a great version of this song by young Keri Hemingway from Nashville, via Indiana.

Timeless voice and flawless singing, but some of the most appalling lyrics of all time.
