Una canzone, un libro

Oppure il caso opposto...quando un libro cita una canzone...come questo che la cita continuamente:


UNA QUESTIONE PRIVATA - BEPPE FENOGLIO
Ora il cuore gli batteva, le labbra gli si erano di colpo inaridite. Sentiva filtrare attraverso la porta la musica di Over the Rainbow. Quel disco era stato il suo primo regalo a Fulvia.(...)
Il giorno che portò il disco, lo suonarono per ventotto volte.
"Ti piace?-le domando,contratto abbuiato dall'ansia perchè la giusta domanda sarebbe stata :-Lo ami?"
"Mi piace da svenire.Quando finisce senti che qualcosa è veramente finito".

OVER THE RAINBOW

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh why can't I?
Well I see trees of green and Red roses too,
I'll watch then bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark and I think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, I...I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than
We'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Someday I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops is where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dare to, ... why, oh why can't I
