Sunday Bites #2: Pearl Jam - Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town

Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town é uma música dos Pearl Jam lançada em 1993 no álbum Vs., onde figuravam outras músicas ainda hoje muito requisitadas como por exemplo Animal, Daughter e Dissident.

Os Pearl Jam fizeram enorme furor nos anos 90 mas ainda continuam a ser uma banda de referência para muitas pessoas. Se alguém os quiser ouvir ao vivo, terá oportunidade de o fazer no dia 10 de Julho no passeio marítimo de Algés, no festival Optimus Alive!10.

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar yet, I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place, I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)

I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
me, you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream...hello...
My god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are, and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)
Hearts and thoughts they fade...fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (3x)
Hearts and thoughts they fade...
