about
Tommaso Cuneo has written and produced the song, Marcello Daga mixed it. Cordelia (a fancy name, loaned from a Shakespeare opera) it's a girl described by the lyrics, but the song is also a reflection about how the encounters that we make in our life can lead us to change something of ourselves or in the opposite, can lead us to stay how we are; in summary the meeting with the other helps us to get to know each other better.
lyrics
CORDELIA
Cordelia, it’s an unusual name
i got a slight surprise
really thinking of it
when Cordelia, talks to you
she’s got a french R,
among coffee and smoke
between thoughts that come to you staring at her
suddenly disappear, the ones you already had
between Almodovar lipstick and a flat
you hear a train a comin’
brings you back in your own deck
that’s the way we change in life, that’s the way
that’s the way we stay in life, that’s the way
that’s the way for us that one look is enough
to start again from there
that’s the way we stay in life, that’s the way
shortcut or long way,
who knows what will be
playing heads or tails I’ll discover
will be none of the two
I’m recognizable and fuzzy
as a country accent
she said her name is proper Cordelia
I’m sure she said it to me
that’s the way we change in life, that’s the way
that’s the way we stay in life, that’s the way
that’s the way for us that one look is enough
to start again from there
that’s the way we change in life, that’s the way.
