Calling You – Jevetta Steele




Bagdad Café (Percy Adlon, 1987, Alemania)
Tras una fuerte discusión, una mujer alemana se baja del coche en mitad de una carretera y llega a un sucio bar regentado por una mujer negra. Se instala allí y poco a poco entabla amistad con los clientes habituales a la vez que consigue ir cambando el aspecto del bar.

Jevetta Steele, cantante afroamericana de música góspel. Forma parte del grupo de góspel The Steeles.
Nomidada a mejor canción Oscars 1988.

A desert road from vegas to nowhere
some place better tham where you're been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
I am calling you
Can't you hear me
I am calling you
A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
Can't you hear me
I am calling you
I am calling you
Can't you hear me
I am calling you
A desert road from vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
A hot dry winblows right through me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
can't you hear me
I am calling you
