Bajo los lazos de inspiración de Marvin Gaye, Al green o Smokey Robinson, surgió Eric Benet mostrando unas condiciones idoneas para seguir el sendero de esos grandes de la música soul. Ahora -casi quince años de ese inicio de la andadura- podemos percibir el talento en sus composiciones e interpretaciones, rebosantes de feeling y buen gusto.
"Sometimes I Cry" es el video presentación de su álbum Lost In Time apunto de salir al mercado. Elegante y con una sensual voz en falsete que me ha recordado por un momento a Prince. Él es una de las bazas más importantes para el futuro cercano del rnb, algo turbio y confuso últimamente desde el punto de vista más ortodoxo, por ello confio en que cuando tengamos el resto del trabajo, éste se encuentre a la altura de su potencial.

Verse 1-
Two years since you walked away from me
Since all of our scattered dreams
Were just thrown away
I'm finally gettin back to what I used to be
Share my pain with my family
Think I'm on my way
I can sleep at night,
I don't reach for you when I wake up
But it's taken some time
I can live my life
Without praying that we could make up
I'm movin on, I'm feeling strong inside
-Chorus 1-
But sometimes I cry, babe
When I'm all alone
With this heart of mine
Sometimes I cry, babe
Although you've been gone
For a long, long time
-Verse 2-
Heard you're moving in with someone new
I hope all your dreams come true
And you'll both be happy, yeah
Been long enough for me to take a look around
I've met a girl, we've been hangin out
She's been good for me
But when we're makin love
She don't take me there like you used to
And it hurts when I lie (when I lie baby)
Help me understand how to push you out,
Forget you and let you go,
Cuz Lord knows I've tried, yeah
-Chorus 2-
But sometimes I cry, babe
Been at all that hurtin
For a long, long time (yes, I have babe)
Sometimes I cry, babe
Ain't nothin workin
For this pain of mine
-Bridge-
I'll just have to fake it
Until I can make it
There's a smile on my face, yeah
But I'm broken inside
Two years since you walked away from me
Since all of our scattered dreams
Were just thrown away
I'm finally gettin back to what I used to be
Share my pain with my family
Think I'm on my way
I can sleep at night,
I don't reach for you when I wake up
But it's taken some time
I can live my life
Without praying that we could make up
I'm movin on, I'm feeling strong inside
-Chorus 1-
But sometimes I cry, babe
When I'm all alone
With this heart of mine
Sometimes I cry, babe
Although you've been gone

And you'll both be happy, yeah
