Tempo para tudo

Em 1965, os Byrds já faziam música divina, com o jingle-jangle das Rickenbackers e a electrificação (avant la lettre) do Dylan. Ainda assim, um dia resolveram juntar-lhe o capítulo III do Livro de Eclesiastes.

Mais uma para a tua lista, Pedro.

3. The Byrds, «Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is a Season)», Turn! Turn! Turn! (1965)

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

A time to build up,a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time for peace, I swear it’s not too late
