Als ik een top-10 liefdesleednummers zou samenstellen, een idee dat mij nu te binnen schiet, zou deze er denk ik wel in voorkomen. Al is de concurrentie zwaar, en ik vermoed dat Jacques Brel onverslaanbaar op 1 zou staan. Enfin, Bad Company, met zoals beloofd de andere kippenvel-uuropener.
In the beginning, I believed every word that you said
Now that you’re gone my world is in shreds
Oh you loved me and left me
You took all the things that I needed so bad
I’m standing here wondering where is the love that I had oh
Give me silver, blue and gold
The colour of the sky I’m told
My rainbow is overdue
In the beginning, there was something of love that was mine
Now that it’s gone, whoa I’m crying
Oh the time that it takes for a love to grow cold
is a wonder to me
I’m walking around with my head hanging down
tell me where is she
Don’t forsake me cause I love you
Don’t forsake me cause I love you
Now give me silver, blue and gold
The colour of the sky I’m told
My rainbow is overdue
Oh don’t forsake me cause I love you
Don’t forsake me cause I love you
1976
