Testo If - Joni Mitchell
Testo della canzone If (Joni Mitchell), tratta dall'album Shine
If you can keep your head while all about you
People are losing theirs and blaming you
If you can trust yourself when everybody doubts you
And make allowance for their doubting too
If you can wait and not get tired of waiting
And when lied about, stand tall, don't deal in lies
And when hated, don't give in to hating back
Don't need to look so good, don't need to talk too wise
If
If you can dream and not make dreams your master
If you can think and not make intellect your game
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same
If
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve you after all of them are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Nothing but the will that's telling you to hold on, hold on
If
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted and misconstrued by some smug fool
Or watch your life's work torn apart and broken down
And still stoop to build again with worn-out tools
If you can draw a crowd and keep your virtue
Or walk with kings and keep the common touch
If neither enemies nor loving friends can hurt you
If everybody counts with you, but none too much
If
If you can fill the journey of a minute
With 60 seconds' worth of wonder and delight
Then the earth is yours and everything that's in it
But more than that, I know you'll be alright, you'll be alright
You'll be alright
'Cause you've got the fight, you've got the insight
(You've got the fight, you've got the insight)
You've got the fight, you've got the insight
(You've got the fight, you've got the insight)
You've got the fight, you've got the insight
