Say something

Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'll be the one if you want me to
Anywhere I would have followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you

And I am feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all

And I will stumble and fall
I'm still learning love
Just starting to crawl

Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would have followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you

And I will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love

And I'm saying goodbye

Era uma vez

Era uma vez um pensamento meu
Quase podia ser segredo teu
E meu

Era quem sabe um tempo de inventar

Subires o meu corpo
Caíres do meu sonho
E ficares em nós

Era uma vez um sonho que não sei
Que se fez asa, sopro, ar
Quase lhe toquei

E a pressentir porquê fui atrás

E ainda o vi
A esconder-se em mim
Era talvez um tempo pra te dar

Era talvez um tempo de te amar

O tempo que não foi tempo não passou

O sonho que se fez pele e se guardou

aqui ficou

Como se fosse sopro, asa, ar, escondeu-se em nós

E no teu olhar

Fica pra sempre um tempo de te amar

Fica pra sempre tanto do que sou

Abraça-me onde a solidão termina

O meu amor tem lábios de silêncio
E mão de bailarina
E voa como o vento
E abraça-me onde a solidão termina

O meu amor tem trinta mil cavalos
A galopar no peito
E um sorriso só dela
Que nasce quando a seu lado eu me deito

O meu amor ensinou-me a chegar
Sedento de ternura
Separou as minhas feridas
E pôs-me a salvo para além da loucura

O meu amor ensinou-me a partir
Nalguma noite triste
Mas antes, ensinou-me
A não esquecer que o meu amor existe

Ice cream castles in the air

Ontem fui ver um fantástico concerto tributo a Joni Mitchell.
Aline Frazão, Amélia Muge, Ana Bacalhau, Cati Freitas, Fábia Rebordão, Luísa Sobral, Mafalda Veiga, Manuela Azevedo (que foi brilhante), Márcia e Sara Tavares, cantaram maravilhosamente, enquanto o António Jorge Gonçalves ilustrava digitalmente, e em tempo real, as melodias.
Foi mágico. Pena não ser todos os dias.

Gosto de muitas, mas nenhuma me acende as luzes da alma com maior vigor do que esta linda canção.
Tudo o que é pele de pessoa se transforma em pele de galinha.
Querida Joni, cante lá para os senhores.
Senhores, é aumentar o volume, fechar os olhos e ouvir esta maravilha.

Bom fim-de-semana!

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

As every fairy tale comes real

I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now

From give and take, and still somehow

It's love's illusions I recall

I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way

Once I'm done with you

Yeah, I got a fistful of your hair
But you don't look like you're scared
You just smile and tell me, "Daddy, it's yours."
'Cause you know how I like it
Use a dirty little lover

If the neighbors call the cops
Call the sheriff, call the SWAT, we don't stop
We keep rocking while they're knocking on our door
And you're screaming,"give it to me baby
Give it to me, motherfucker"

Oh, look what you're doing, look what you've done
But in this jungle you can't run
'Cause what I got for you
I promise it's a killer
You'll be banging on my chest
Bang bang, gorilla

Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas
Ooh, yeah
You and me baby making love like gorillas

I bet you never ever felt so good, so good
I got your body trembling like it should, it should
You'll never be the same, baby, once I'm done with you
You, you

Tudo a fazer bebés, vá!

How long will I want you
As long as you want me too
And longer by far
How long will I hold you
As long as your father told you
As long as you can

How long will I give to you
As long as I live through you
However long you say

Take me there

One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue

'Cause if you want love
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while

Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)

Your body is a wonderland

Stillness

Sunrise like a nosebleed

Your head hurts and you can't breathe

You been tryin' to throw you arms around the world

How far you gonna go

Before you lose your way back home

You've been trying to throw your arms

Around the world

I'm gonna run to you

Woman be still

Yeah, I dreamed that I saw Dali

With a supermarket trolley

He was trying to throw his arms around a girl

He took an open top beetle

Through the eye of a needle

He was tryin' to throw his arms around the world

I'm gonna run to you

Woman be still

Queen Bee

Let me be your ruler
Ruler
You can call me Queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy

We're better than we've every dreamed
And I'm in love with being
Queen

From the couch to the counters in my kitchen

She's so much more than you're used to

Know's just how to move to seduce you

She's gone do the right thing and touch the right spot

Dance in your lap till you're ready to pop

She's always ready, when you want it she want it

Like a nympho, the info

I'll show you where to meet her

On the late night, till daylight the club jumpin'

If you want a good time, she gone give you what you want

Baby It's a new age,

You like my new craze

Let's get together

Maybe we can start a new phase

The smokes got the club all hazy,

Spotlights don't do you justice baby

Why don't you come over here,

You got me saying

I'm tired of using technology,

Why don't you sit down on top of me

I'm tired of using technology

I need you right in front

of me

Aquarela descolorida?

E o futuro é uma astronave

Que tentamos pilotar

Não tem tempo nem piedade

Nem tem hora de chegar

Sem pedir licença muda nossa vida

E depois convida a rir ou chorar

Nessa estrada não nos cabe

Conhecer ou ver o que virá

O fim dela ninguém sabe

Bem ao certo onde vai dar

Vamos todos numa linda passarela

De uma aquarela que um dia enfim

Descolorirá
