You've been so quiet lately
Sometimes I wonder has the cat got your tongue
You seem to be a thousand miles away
Don't look me in the eyes and say it's O.K.
Don't lie
I got this funny feelin' baby
That it's going to be that time again
When you have the need for someone else
I know you better than you know yourself
(*) Sometimes it takes the strength of a woman
To understand the weakness of her man
It's gonna take the strength of this woman
To keep fightin' for the lovin' of her man
And darlin' when you've been satisfied
And it isn't new to you no more
Think of me, I'll be here alone
Waitin' for you to find your way back home
Repeat (*)
Oh I know how hard you tried
To hide this all from me
But if you keep a silent heart
I can't give you what you need
So hold me close and hold me tight
Let's say goodnight, and never say goodbye
Repeat (*)
The lyrics STRENGTH OF A WOMAN of THE CARPENTERS is also present in the album Made in america (1981)
The Carpenters furono una celebre coppia di musicisti statunitensi attiva dal 1960 al 1980, composta dai fratelli Richard e Karen Carpenter. Richard, compositore e pianista, forniva le melodie e gli arrangiamenti per le canzoni interpretate dalla sorella Karen, una cantante con un timbro vocale distintivo e potente. Il loro stile musicale si caratterizzava per la fusione di pop, soft rock e musica orchestrale, creando un sound romantico e malinconico che conquistò il pubblico mondiale. Tra i loro successi più famosi ricordiamo "Close to You", "We've Only Just Begun" e "Rainy Days and Mondays". Karen Carpenter, purtroppo, lottò contro la bulimia nervosa e morì nel 1983 all'età di soli 32 anni, segnando la fine del duo. The Carpenters lasciarono un'eredità musicale significativa, vendendo oltre 100 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo e continuano ad essere amati da generazioni di fan.
