Letra de
Waterloo Sunset

Waterloo Sunset é uma música do grupo britânico The Kinks, composta pelo líder da banda Ray Davies. Foi lançada em 1967 como um single e pertence ao álbum Something Else by The Kinks. A inspiração para a música veio da vista da janela do apartamento de Davies em Londres, com vista para o Rio Tâmisa, perto da Ponte de Waterloo, evocando sentimentos de nostalgia, paz e solitude diante da agitada Londres. A letra narra a história de dois amantes, Te ... rry e Julie, que se encontram na estação de Waterloo, servindo como metáfora para a saída dos problemas e tumultos da vida urbana. Ver mais [+]

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling, flowing into the night
People so busy make me feel dizzy, taxi lights shine so bright
But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on Waterloo Sunset, I am in paradise
Every day I look at the world from my window
Chilly-chilly is the evening time, Waterloo sunset's fine

Terry meets Julie, Waterloo Station, every Friday night
But I am so lazy, don't want to wander, I stay at home at night
But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze on Waterloo Sunset, I am in paradise
Every day I look at the world from my window
Chilly-chilly is the evening time, Waterloo sunset's fine

Millions of people swarming like flies round Waterloo underground
But Terry and Julie cross over the river where they feel safe and sound
And they don't need no friends
As long as they gaze on Waterloo Sunset, they are in paradise

Waterloo sunset's fine
Waterloo sunset's fine
Waterloo sunset's fine
