"Sou outro quando te dou tempo de olhares para mim"

Come over here

Something tells you you should go
Deep down you have always known
Something sweet is on the other side
Mama’s gonna cry for you
Papa might disown you
You are getting ready for the ride
So won’t you
Come over here
Wear the shirt you think you like
There’s all kinds of shades of white
Embrace the color in your life
You can’t see beyond the wall
Paradise for those who fall
Out of grace or simply out of sight
Why don’t you
Come over here
Someone out there will hate you now
But what you take is what you allow
So won’t you
Come over here
Why don’t you come over here
Come over here

The sun touched the center of the breach and flooded the clouds with light from below....
the sea altered color with the new reflection;
the violet darkened, the green around the island and on the sand turned a steady, pale emerald green...

Hoje de manhã saí muito cedo

Hoje de manhã saí muito cedo,
Por ter acordado ainda mais cedo
E não ter nada que quisesse fazer...

Não sabia que caminho tomar
Mas o vento soprava forte, varria para um lado,
E segui o caminho para onde o vento me soprava nas costas.

Assim tem sido sempre a minha vida, e
Assim quero que possa ser sempre -
- Vou onde o vento me leva e não me
Sinto pensar.

Addiction

...and so I bought another book
despite all I had to do:
Letters to write,
music to learn,
problems to solve,
along with all
I must recall.
So much to do,
while birds go on singing
to cats sleeping
cooled by the sun's
afternoon shades...
So much to do,
while the dead sleep
as we go on, not knowing
what for,
or why...
And so I bought another book -
where first I looked
at the last page,
Trying to find the answer.

Onde estás?
Não me deixes aqui...
Vim à tua procura
E não te encontrei
A vista é pura
Mas não te vi
E agora não sei

Preciso de ti
Respiro-te
Fazes-me falta...


Nem sei bem quem procuro...
