The one you chose


Give a man a yeller and he’ll be your friend forever
Give a man a speckled bird and he’ll never leave your side
And darling, truly making love will take you higher than the mountains
And you take you what it takes you boy to make your spirit rise

Me and you are moving to a truly new dimension
Full of new surprises on this river that we’re riding
Darling, up ahead is crazy with the freedom and it’s wilder
Welcome to the one you chose to run there by your side

Maybe what you see is what you got and what you wanted
Take me at my word that it’s the best that I can be
I will go down trying hard to teach you how to trust me
And I’ll love you ‘til it happens darling or eternity

Holding on to something that keeps holding us together
Stronger than the circumstances tearing us apart
I’ve just got a feeling, if I’m wrong you can correct me
I believe I just sang my way back in your heart

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics THE ONE YOU CHOSE of KRIS KRISTOFFERSON is also present in the album Feeling mortal (2013)

Biografia

Kris Kristofferson (nato Christopher Kristofferson il 22 giugno 1936) è un cantautore, musicista e attore statunitense di origine svedese. Considerato uno dei pilastri della musica country americana, ha influenzato generazioni di artisti con le sue canzoni introspettive e poetiche che esplorano temi come la vita rurale, l'amore, la perdita e la lotta sociale. Dopo una carriera militare e un breve periodo di studio alla Oxford University, Kristofferson si trasferì a Nashville nel 1966 per dedicarsi alla musica. Inizialmente lavorò come scrittore per altri artisti prima di emergere con il suo album d'esordio "Kristofferson" (1970). Il suo successo arrivò con brani come "Me and Bobby McGee", interpretato da Janis Joplin, e "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", diventato un classico del country. Kristofferson ha collaborato con artisti di fama mondiale come Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings e Willie Nelson, contribuendo a definire il movimento outlaw country degli anni '70. Oltre alla musica, ha recitato in numerosi film, tra cui "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" (1973) e "Blade Runner" (1982). Nel corso della sua carriera, Kristofferson ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Award per la migliore canzone country nel 1970. Le sue canzoni continuano ad essere amate e interpretate da artisti di diverse generazioni.
