Som: Ben Harper - "Walk Away"

Ben Harper é um dos maiores letristas vivos da atualidade... suas músicas são poesias que, de tão simples e singelas, são geniais e tocantes. Abaixo vai um exemplo, a letra de "Walk Away"... me faz lembrar o rosto de todos os amigos que deixei pelas cidades onde já morei... Deus abençoe vocês, meus amigos, onde quer que estejam.

"oh no here comes that sun again
that means another day without you my friend
and it hurts me to look into the mirror at myself
and it hurts even more to have to be with somebody else

and it's so hard to do and so easy to say
but sometimes sometimes you just have to walk away

with so many people to love in my life
why do i worry about one
but you put the happy in my ness
you put the good times into my fun

and it's so hard to do and so easy to say
but sometimes sometimes you just have to walk away

we've tried the goodbye so many days
we walk in the same direction so that we could never stray
they say if you love somebody then you have got to set them free
but i would rather be locked to you than live in this pain and misery

they say time will make all this go away
but it is time that has taken my tomorrows and turned them into yesterdays
and once again that rising sun is droppin' on down
once again you my friend are nowhere to be found"

and it's so hard to do and so easy to say
but sometimes sometimes you just have to walk away
