Letra y Significado de ROXANNE, Patrick Stump


anonimo opina:

Puesto #1 Fue en otoño de 1977, cuando un grupo poco conocido en aquel momento , "The Police", llegó a un pequeño hotel de París para dar un concierto en la ciudad.

Los miembros del grupo no estaban sobrados de dinero, por lo que el hotel se encontraba en un callejón en el que varias prostitutas esperaban fuera, en la calle, a que algún coche las recogiera.
Fue Sting, al ver a las prostitutas quien tuvo esta idea de componer "Roxanne" inspirándose en la historia de un hombre que se enamoraba de una prostituta, al ver el poster de una obra de teatro llamado "Cyrano de Bergerac": «tuvo esta idea de una canción que tocaba como una bossanova en una guitarra con cuerdas de nylon», recuerda Summers. Roxanne era la mujer que Cyrano tenía que conquistar, sin éxito, nombre que acabaría siendo el título de este emblemático tema.


Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night.

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right.

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light.

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy.

I know my mind is made up (oh)
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way.

You don't have to put on the red light.
