Wanneer je ook maar eenzaam en bedroefd bent…

Een van de uitvallers van de Zwarte Top-100, en het stemt mij droevig.
En bij het vaststellen van de tekst (globaal) merk ik dat de zanger niet zingt wat ik bijna vijftig jaar gedacht heb: I’m feeling bad any old time you’re lonely and sad. De laagst genoteerde van The Foundations valt bij mij het best…

Anybody can see
That loving him, is all your heart’s set on
Far be it from me
To try to end a love that’s started on

If there’s ever a day (there’s no hurry love)
You’re feeling love slip away (Don’t worry love)

Any old time baby that your love goes wrong
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be along
I will dry your tears
And when each one, disappears

I’ll be there
I’ll come from anywhere

You know that

Any old time baby that you’re feeling down
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be around
I won’t break your heart
Or even try to take your heart
You’re feeling bad
Any old time you’re lonely and sad

You’re better off loving him
He can give, you more, than I ever can
I’m not stepping in
Just to break the heart of a better man

If there’s ever a day (there’s no hurry love)
You’re feeling love slip away (don’t worry love)

Any old time baby that your love goes wrong
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be along
I will dry your tears
And when each one, disappears

I’ll be there
I’ll come from anywhere

You know that

Any old time baby that you’re feeling down
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be around
I won’t break your heart
Or even try to take your heart
You’re feeling bad
Any old time you’re lonely and sad

(Any old time baby that you’re feeling down
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be around)
I won’t break your heart
Or even try to take your heart
You’re feeling bad
Any old time you’re lonely and sad

(Any old time baby that you’re feeling down
Just you hold tight baby and I’ll be around)
I won’t break your heart
Or even try to take your heart
You’re feeling bad
Any old time you’re lonely and sad


Any old time you’re lonely and sad
