Tra le varie canzoni dedicate a Bobby Fischer merita di essere ricordata<br />
“The Way We Were” (1973) di Barbra Streisand. Barbra e Robert<br />
frequentarono la stessa scuola, insieme al cantautore Neil Diamond, la<br />
Erasmus Hall High School di Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn. La Streisand ha<br />
ricordato che Fischer lo attraeva molto (“Bobby was always alone and<br />
very peculiar. But I found him very sexy”).<br />
Con The Way We were, colonna sonora del film omonimo, Barbra<br />
Streisand ottenne l’Oscar per la miglior canzone.<br />
“The Way We Were”<br />
di: Barbra Streisand (1973)<br />
Memories, light the corners of my mind<br />
Misty watercolor memories<br />
of the way we were.<br />
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind<br />
smiles we gave to one another<br />
for the way we were.<br />
Can it be that it was all so simple then<br />
or has time rewritten every line?<br />
If we had the chance to do it all again<br />
tell me, Bobby... Would we? Could we?<br />
Memories, may be beautiful and yet<br />
what’s too painful to remember<br />
We simply chose to forget.<br />
So it’s the laughter we will remember<br />
whenever we remember<br />
the way we were... the way we were...<br />
Come eravamo<br />
Memorie illuminano gli angoli della mia mente.<br />
Sbiaditi ricordi di tenui colori<br />
su come eravamo.<br />
Immagini sparse dei sorrisi lasciati alle spalle<br />
sorrisi che ci siamo scambiati<br />
per come eravamo.<br />
