and again... caught in the middle with your alibi...





Hey love, your face is full of lies
Be careful what you ask
Be cautious how you act
You're tired, tired of the dark
Oh you're covered in dust, yeah
You're covered in dust

(You don't believe)
How can you fall from a
Wound like that dear?
Don't mind, it's a common reaction
And you tell me everything is alright,
You don't mind
How can you feel when
You're wounded like that dear?
Don't mind, it's a common reaction
And you tell me everything is alright
And you don't mind
Waste my time


Do you realize, you're caught in the middle with your alibi
You've been living in a dream
And you think "will I likely fall?"
still you lie, based on the fact
That you will always hide
you're covered in dust,
You're covered in dust

(You don't feel right)
How can you fall from a would like that dear?
(Don't feel right)
Don't mind, it's a common reaction
(You get higher)
And you tell me everything is alright
(And you don't mind) But you don't mind
(You don't feel right)
How can you feel when
You're wounded like that dear?
(Don't feel right)
Don't mind, it's a common reaction
(You get higher)
And you tell me everything is alright
(And you don't mind) But you don't mind
Waste my time

I don't like quiet in the rain with you
I don't like quiet, you wait for fire against the wall
I don't like quiet in the rain with you
I don't like quiet, you wait for fire against the wall

(You don't feel right)
How can you feel when
You're wounded like that dear?
(Don't feel right)
Don't mind, it's a common reaction
(You get higher)
And you tell me everything is alright
(And you don't mind) But you don't mind

uh huh...




The city's dead by morning
Slipping past the great divide
It chases over bridges
Spins me out of my own mind

How much are you likin'
What you see is what you get
Oh, say you love me again
But you never do

I am not singing a love
Singing a love song
'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long

Oh I want to fall away
And waste another day
'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long

I still disappoint you
Why don't you find another threat
It seems that you fall now
If you fall would you tell anybody

You may waste no time dear
But you can't waste mine

Oh, say you love me again
But you never do

I am not singing a love
Singing a love song
'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long

Oh I want to fall away
And waste another day
'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long

But if you can't say love anyway
You love again

'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long
Oh I want to fall away
And waste another day

'Cause love is a game to you now
Watch just to see how long

what's a girl to do...



We walked arm in arm
But I didn't feel his touch
A desire I'd first tried to hide,
That tingling inside was gone
And when he asked me:
'do you still love me?'
I had to look away
I didn't want to tell him
That my heart grows colder with each day

When you love someone
But the thrill is gone
And your kisses at night
Are replaced with tears
And when your dreams are on
A train to train wreck town
Then I ask you now, what's a girl to do?

He said he'd take me away
That we'd work things out
And I didn't want to tell him
But it was then I had to say
Over the times we've shared
It's all blackened out
And my bat lightning heart
Wants to fly away

When you love someone
But the thrill is gone
And your kisses at night
Are replaced with tears
And when your dreams are on
A train to train wreck town
Then I ask you now, what's a girl to do?

What's a girl to do?
What's a girl to do?
What's a girl to do?

it's just it...

Quanto, quanto me queres?



Quanto, quanto me queres?

- perguntaste

Olhando para mim mas distrahida;

E quando nos meus olhos te encontraste,

Eu vi nos teus a luz da minha vida.

Nas tuas mãos, as minhas, apertaste.

Olhando para mim como vencida,

«...quanto, quanto...» - de novo murmuraste

E a tua boca deu-se-me rendida!

Os nossos beijos longos e anciosos,

Trocavam-se frementes!

- Ah! ninguem Sabe beijar melhor

que os amorosos!

Quanto te quero?!

- Eu posso lá dizer!...

- Um grande amôr só se avalia bem

Depois de se perder.

It's time...




One night to be confused
one night to speed up truth
we had a promise made four hands
and then away
both under influense we had devine scent
to know what to say mind is a razorblade
to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn't be good enough for me, no
one night of magic
rush the start
a simple touch
one night to push
and scream and then releaf
ten days of perfect tunes
the colors red and blue
we had a promise made
we were in love
to call for hands of above to lean on
wouldn't be good enough for me, no
to call for hands of above to lean on
wouldn't be good enough
and you, you knew the hands of the devil and you,
kept us awake with wolf teeths
sharing different heartbeats in one night
to call for hands of above to lean on
wouldn't be good enough for me, no
to call for hands of above to lean on
wouldn't be good enough for me, no...

Wait another day...



I look at the starlight,
I am shattered by the night
Always run where I can and
I hide where I wanna hide
But it feels so right,
I want it tonight

It feels so right
Oh, I went out of my mind
I am caught here
one more time
I know how it feels tonight
I can do nothing about it
But it feels so right,
I want it tonight
You feel so right
I will wait to love you
I will wait another day
For you I'd leave
all this behind
I will wait for you tonight
I will waste
another dream on you
Always run to you, runI will take the long road
But it leads rightback to you
Follow you into the sun
I will steal thist ime for you
But it feels so right

I want it tonight
You feel so right,
I will wait to love you
I will wait another day
For you I'd leave all this behind
I will waste
another dream on you
Always run to...you, run....

f'ridas...



Quando os anos passarem
Sobre esse teu desgosto
Vais ver que te curaste
Não de vez mas um pouco

Pois o que a gente busca
Nas dobras do amor
é a cura para a morte
que não tem consolo

e por falar em f’ridas
até as que mais doem
acabam por fechar
só ela vence o corpo

tudo se despedaçou. o sonho, e o amor que é sempre tão breve.

o mundo dorme sob o vento. só eu continuo acordado, em vigília.

se houvesse agora uma catástrofe eu daria por ela.

levantar-me-ia daqui para encarar a morte,

dizer-lhe que são inutilidades o que arrasta consigo.

estou gasto. dei-me sempre mais do que podia.

não há nada que me possam roubar,

sou um homem espoliado de todos os bens,

de todas as doenças, de todas as emoções.

sou um corpo pronto para a viagem sem regresso,

para o crime e para a morte.

sou um corpo que se evita,

um homem cujo nome se perdeu

e cuja biografia possível está no pouco que escreveu.

sou um corpo sem nacionalidade,

pertenço às profundidades dos oceanos,

ao voo da ave migrante.

sou um alfabeto e não sei se terei tempo para me decifrar.

lá fora anoiteceu.



( Al Berto )
