Roger Whittaker - Why

WILL THE LAST WORD EVER SPOKEN BE WHY?

Desde 1962, el folk-singer británico Roger Whittaker (Nairobi, Kenya, 22-3-1936) ha vendido cerca de 50 millones de discos en todo el mundo, principalmente en Alemania, Austria, Holanda, Bélgica, Francia, Escandinavia, Estados Unidos, Canadá, Australia y Nueva Zelanda, siendo recompensado con un total de 250 discos de platino, oro y plata. He aquí un destacado éxito suyo de 1971.

Why (lyrics)

Something's going wrong
With the singer and the song
And the music isn't gentle anymore
There's a mist across the moon
And the sun's too hot at noon
And the house is dark behind the broken door
Where the flowers used to grow
With their leaves are hanging low
And the constant shadow lies across the floor
There's a strange and empty sky
Where the wild birds used to fly
And I never tasted bitter rain before
And will the grass be gone from underneath the sky
Will the golden flower wither soon and die
Will the fire burn out the land
And the sea fill-up with sand
Will the last word ever spoken be why?
Will the last word ever spoken be why?
Someone's lost the plan
For the brotherhood of man
And no one's trying to find it anymore
And the winds become a sigh
For those who hate and those who die
And the waves are black and slow along the shore
And will the grass be gone from underneath the sky
Will the golden flower wither soon and die
Will the fire burn out the land
Will the sea fill-up with sand
Will the last word ever spoken be why?
Will the last word ever spoken be why, why, why?
Will the last word ever spoken be... Why?

Roger Whittaker - I don't believe in if anymore

IF IS FOR CHILDREN BUILDING DAYDREAMS

Roger Whittaker (22-3-1936) es un cantantautor británico nacido en Nairobi (Kenya), de sugestiva voz de barítono, que ha vendido más de 55 millones de discos, generalmente con baladas y canciones folk. En 1970 tuvo un éxito notable con esta canción.

I don't believe in "if" anymore
(Roger Whittaker)

Now if you load your rifle right
And if you fix your bayonet so
And if you kill that man my friend
The one they call the foe
And if you do it often lad
And if you do it right
You'll be a hero overnight
You'll save your country from her plight
Remember God is always right
If you survive to see the sight
A friend now greeting foe

No, you won't believe in If anymore
It's an illusion
It's an illusion
No, you won't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams

If I knew then what I know now
(I thought I did you know somehow)
If I could have the time again
I'd take the sunshine leave the rain
If only time would trickle slow
Like rain that melts the fallen snow
If only Lord if only
If only Lord if only

Oh, I don' believe in if anymore
It's an illusion
It's an illusion
No, I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams

No, I don't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
