George Harrison tem letra inédita gravada e de qualquer maneira é mesmo para sempre

Escrita por George Harrison há uns quarenta anos, a letra de Silence (Is Its Own Reply), foi musicada por Dean Johnson, um músico inglês da banda Wirral e praticamente desconhecido do grande público.

Spencer Leigh, um apresentador da rádio BBC, soube por Hunter Davies, biógrafo dos Beatles, que ele guardava a letra escrita por George, morto há oito anos.

Spencer contatou Dean Johnson que, com a recomendação de “seguir o estilo de George”, musicou Silence (Is Its Own Reply),” que seria uma alusão de Harrison à por vezes conturbada relação dele com John Lennon.

Então, som na caixa.

Silence (Is Its Own Reply)
I'm happy to say that it's only a dream/When I come across people like you/It's only a dream and you make it obscene/With the things that you think and you do.

You're so unaware of the pain that I bear/ And jealous for what you can't do/There's times when I feel that you haven't a hope/But I also know that isn't true.

Every time I ask you why/Silence is its own reply/It's so hard to prove what I can do/Compared to someone like you/You make it look easy but you still tease me/When you have got nothing better to do.

When the tears are falling and its dawning/The truth will ring out so clear/That no-one's above you and nobody can love you/Until all that pain disappears.

Every time I ask you why/Silence is its own reply/By the time we have talked it over/It's time to say goodbye/Silence is its own reply.
