The Temptations

The Temptations

The Temptations (Detroit, 1961), grupo de música soul, rhythm and blues y pop, aunque se han acercado igualmente a distintas fusiones de estilos musicales y al funk con cierta carga política. Fue el más importante grupo vocal masculino de los años sesenta. Estuvo inicialmente formado por cinco cantantes a partir de la fusión de dos grupos de Detroit, The Primes y The Distants. Otis Williams, Elbridge (conocido como El, o Al) Bryant y Melvin Franklin eran ya unos veteranos de la escena musical de Detroit cuando formaron the Distants, que en 1959 grabarían el sencillo "Come On" para el sello local Northern. Por las mismas fechas, the Primes, trío formado por Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams y Kell Osborne, se trasladaron a Detroit desde su originaria Alabama. Rápidamente, obtuvieron éxito (el mánager crearía una versión en femenino, The Primettes, del que más tarde surgirían The Supremes, con Diana Ross, Mary Wilson y Florence Ballard).

Letra de Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)
Each day through my window
I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself
"You're such a lucky guy"

To have a girl like her
Is truly a dream come true
Out of all of the fellas in the world
She belongs to you

But it was just my imagination
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me

(Soon) Soon we'll be married
And raise a family, whoa yeah
A cozy, little home out in the country
With two children, maybe three

I tell you I can visualize it all
This couldn't be a dream
For too real it all seems

But it was just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
I tell you it was just my imagination
Running away with me

Every night, on my knees I pray
"Dear Lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die"

Ooh, her love is heavenly
When her arms enfold me
I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me

Just my imagination, once again
Running away with me
I tell you it was just my imagination
Running away with me
I never met her, but I can't forget her

Just my imagination
(Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
