Think About Me
by Simmy-Lu

Ecco una breve songfic esperimento… ovvero una songfic tutta in inglese come la canzone!
Niente paura!
Bastano le nozioni elementari della lingua per riuscire a leggere!
E’ molto semplice!
Quindi abbiate la pazienza di arrivare fino alla fine! Sono appena due paginette scarse!
La song Think About Me è tratta dall’album “Gutter Flower” dei Goo Goo Dolls (x capirci sono quelli di “Iris”, colonna sonora del film “City of Angels”) Buona lettura!


It was raining. More than yesterday. More than the day before. More than ever probably.
He was half-watching, half-amusing...looking out of the window. He was sat in his classroom, at his desk, with his elbows on the table, his two hands supporting his chin; looking at...something outside.

You take a lot of chances with your feelings
No one really knows what you fell
And fiction is the only way you’re dealing
You turn your pretty head if it gets real

He was thinking about something in his head...he was away from there. From all the people around him. From all the noise. His look was vague and distant. His eyes were half-opened, like if he was dozing. He was in an abstracted state.
He was lost in his mind at the moment.

You take it so slowly
And your eyes look so lonely
And it’s only when you think about me
when you think about me
think about me

He was thinking about...
‹‹What are you thinking about?›› asked a voice.
He awoke immediately. It was a beautiful happy voice. Her voice.
He turned his head immediately looking up at her. A large smile was in his face, turned red.
‹‹What?›› he asked.
‹‹What are you thinking about?›› she asked another time smiling.
‹‹Oh…›› he said ‹‹…nothing particular.››
‹‹Really?››
‹‹Really.›› he replied.
She smiled ironically and she sat in front of him.
‹‹Come on!›› she said ‹‹Tell me!››
‹‹Oh, I just tell you, it’s nothing!››
‹‹Please!››
‹‹Why?›› he asked.
She smiled again…And what a wonderful thing when she smiled! His face turned red again looking the girl.
‹‹Because I want to know what were you thinking about!›› she replied.
‹‹Oh…››
‹‹Came on!››
‹‹It’s nothing particular.››
It was indeed so. He was only thinking, that’s all.

I got head don’t let me sleep
You got a secret I can’t keep
You see a little stranger in your mirror
The girl you never know is what you fear

‹‹Please… what were you thinking about?››
‹‹Oh well…I was thinking about you.››
Silence.
The girl looked him seriously.

You take it so slowly
And your eyes look so lonely
But it’s only when you think about me
when you think about me

‹‹Foolishness!!›› she said then.
‹‹Why?›› he asked ‹‹Why you disbelieve me?››
‹‹Ryota... you know... you are artful and sly... but not enough for me!›› she said looking into his eyes.
He smiled.

All you want is something I can’t be
All you want from me is what you need
And I’m saying…

‹‹And you know too, Aya-chan!››
Both laughed. The school-bell rang and lessons began.

You take it so slowly
And your eyes look so lonely
But it’s only when you think about me…

The End
