"Where Are You Going" de Dave Matthews Band

 
Where are you going with the long face pulling down?
Don't hide away like an ocean
But you can't see, but you can smell
And the sound of waves crash down

I am no Superman
I have no reasons for you
I am no hero, that's for sure
But I do know one thing
Is where you are is where I belong
I do know where you go is where I wanna be

Where are you going?
Where do you go?
Are you looking for answers to questions under the stars?
Well, if along the way you are growing weary
You can rest with me until a brighter day, you're okay

I am no Superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that´s for sure
But I do know one thing
Is where you are is where I belong
I do know where you go is where I wanna be

Where are you going?
Where do you go?

Where do you go?
Where are you going?
Where do you go?
I am no Superman
I have no answers for you
I am no hero, oh that´s for sure
But I do know one thing
Is where you are is where I belong
I do know where you go is where I wanna be

Where are you going?
Where do you go?
Tell me where are you going?
Where?
Well, let's go

"Rome Wasn't Built In A Day" de Morcheeba


You and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

In this day and age it's so easy to stress
'Cause people are strange and you can never second guess

In order to love child we got to be strong
I'm caught in the crossfire why can't we get along

'Cause you and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

I'm having a daydream, we're getting somewhere
I'm kissing your lips and running fingers through your hair
I'm as nervous as you 'bout making it right
Though we know we were wrong, we can't give up the fight
Oh no

'Cause you and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll run away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

You and me we're meant to be
Walking free in harmony
One fine day we'll fly away
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

You and me (you and me) we're meant to be (meant to be)
Walking free (walking free) in harmony (in harmony)
One fine day (one fine day) we'll run away (we gonna run away,we gonna run away)
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

You and me (you and me) we're meant to be (meant to be)
Walking free (walking free) in harmony (in harmony)
One fine day (one fine day) we'll fly away (we gonna run away,we gonna run away)
Don't you know that Rome wasn't built in a day

"The Blower's Daughter" de Damien Rice


And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it's
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky


I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...


And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it's
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial


I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...


Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?


I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind... my mind...
'til I find somebody new

"Baby, Now That I've Found You" de Tony Macaulay & John MacLeod (para Londres)


Baby, now that I've found you
I won't let you go
I build my world around you
I need you so, baby even though
You don't need me now


Baby, now that I've found you
I won't let you go
I build my world around you
I need you so, baby even though
You don't need me
You don't need me no no


Baby, baby, when first we met
I knew in this heart of mine
That you were someone I couldn't forget
I said right and abide my time


I spent my life looking for that somebody
To make me feel like you
Now you tell me that you wanna leave me
But darling, I just can't let you


Baby, baby, when first we met
I knew in this heart of mine
That you were someone I couldn't forget
I said right and abide my time


I spent my life looking for that somebody
To make me feel like you
Now you tell me that you wanna leave me
But darling, I just can't let you


Now that I found you
I build my world around you
I need you so, baby even though
You don't need me now


Baby, now that I've found you
I won't let you go
I build my world around you
I need you so, baby even though
You don't need me,

You don't need me no no

"I Believe" de Phil Johnstone & Robert Plant


Tears, tears at the water's edge
Hey little sister, there is laughter instead
Tears for the teacher, from the eyes, from the soul
This restless spirit takes a long way back home
Like the wind, you are free
Just a whisper - I hear you, so talk to me


Oh, I believe, eye to eye
Say brothers, sisters, see your brothers in the sky
Neighbour, neighbour, don't be so cold
It's only glory from the story I'm told


I believe, eye to eye
Say brothers, sisters, see your brothers in the sky
Neighbour, neighbour, don't be so cold
It's so much glory from the story untold


Big fire, on top of the hill
A hopeless gesture, and last farewell
Tears from your mother, from the pits of her soul
Look at your father, see his blood run cold
Like the wind, you are free
Just a whisper - I hear you, so talk to me


I believe, eye to eye
Say brothers, sisters, see your brothers in the sky
Neighbour, neighbour, don't be so cold
With so much glory from the story untold


I believe, eye to eye
Say brothers, sisters, see your brothers in the sky
Neighbour, neighbour, don't be so cold
It's so much glory from the story untold

"(There's) Always Something There To Remind Me" de Burt Bacharach & Hal David (para Blog do Fog*)


I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me
And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be
Oh, how can I forget you?


When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you,
And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa


When shadows fall
I passed a small cafe where we would dance at night
And I can't help recalling how it felt to kiss and hold you tight
Oh, how can I forget you?


When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you

And I will never be free
You'll always be a part of me, whoa oh whoa


If you should find you miss the sweet and tender love we used to share
Just come back to the places where we used to go

And I'll be there
Oh, how can I forget you?


When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
I was born to love you
And I will never be free
When there is
When there is always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me
Always something there to remind me


 
* Apesar de ser virtual, meu primeiro blog(www.thaiscuria.blogspot.com) merece ser homenageado
com uma música pelo fato de representar pessoas e lugares extremamente especiais na minha vida.

"Eu Te Amo" de Tom Jobim & Chico Buarque (para Londres)


Ah! Se já perdemos a noção da hora
Se juntos já jogamos tudo fora
Me conta agora como hei de partir

Ah! Se ao te conhecer
Dei pra sonhar, fiz tantos desvarios
Rompi com o mundo, queimei meus navios
Me diz pra onde ainda posso ir

Se nós, nas travessuras das noites eternas
Já confundimos tanto as nossas pernas
Diz com que pernas eu devo seguir

Se entornastes nossa sorte pelo chão
Se na bagunça do teu coração
Meu sangue errou de veia e se perdeu

Como, se na desordem do armário embutido
Teu paletó enlaça o meu vestido
E o teu sapato ainda pisa no meu

Como, se nos amamos feito dois pagãos
Meus seios ainda estão em tuas mãos
Me explica com que cara eu vou sair

Não, acho que estás te fazendo de tonta
Te dei meus olhos pra tomares conta
Agora conta como hei de partir

"Wall of Silence" de October Project


I've seen that life
Touches us with pain
And we change
Becoming strangers to our friends
Tell me what happens along the way


I thought of us
Hard to talk these days
Did we change
Or were we strangers all along
Tell me what caused us to turn away


CHORUS
There's a wall of silence
Miles across
A wall between us
Holding back
Holding back our loss


I moved ahead
Thinking you'd be there
But it changed
And now we're strangers to our past
How did I lose you along the way


CHORUS

I've seen that life
Touches us with pain
And we change
Becoming strangers to ourselves
Tell me what happens along the way
How did I lose you along the way

"Carta Ao Tom 74" de Toquinho & Vinicius de Moraes


Rua Nascimento Silva 107
Você ensinando pra Elizeth
As canções de "Canção do Amor Demais"
Lembra que tempo feliz, ai que saudade
Ipanema era só felicidade
Era como se o amor doesse em paz

Nossa famosa garota nem sabia
A que ponto a cidade turvaria
Este Rio de amor que se perdeu
Mesmo a tristeza da gente era mais bela
E além disso se via da janela
Um cantinho de céu e o Redentor

É, meu amigo, só resta uma certeza
É preciso acabar com essa tristeza
É preciso inventar de novo o amor

"Beatriz" de Chico Buarque & Edu Lobo


Olha
Será que ela é moça
Será que ela é triste
Será que é o contrário
Será que é pintura
O rosto da atriz
Se ela dança no sétimo céu
Se ela acredita que é outro país
E se ela só decora o seu papel
E se eu pudesse entrar na sua vida

Olha
Será que é de louça
Será que é de éter
Será que é loucura
Será que é cenário
A casa da atriz
Se ela mora num arranha-céu
E se as paredes são feitas de giz
E se ela chora num quarto de hotel
E se eu pudesse entrar na sua vida

Sim, me leva para sempre, Beatriz
Me ensina a não andar com os pés no chão
Para sempre é sempre por um triz
Ai, diz quantos desastres têm na minha mão
Diz se é perigoso a gente ser feliz

Olha
Será que é uma estrela
Será que é mentira
Será que é comédia
Será que é divina
A vida da atriz
Se ela um dia despencar do céu
E se os pagantes exigirem bis
E se um arcanjo passar o chapéu
E se eu pudesse entrar na sua vida

"Dance With Life (The Brilliant Light)" de Bryan Ferry


I was thinking out loud
One life's such a short time for love
When a match made in heaven arrives
Eternity is never enough


It's all been so simple 'til now
There's no brilliance like beauty out there
No knowledge as wise as the heart
We all need reason to care


I need to dance with life
Sweep you away into the night
When there is no one else around
I will make every day count


We need to dance with life
Swim in the soul of your eyes
'til we melt into the night
We need to dance with life

And we leave a brilliant light behind

We could lay on the ground
We could look at that light in the sky
Show the moon and the million stars
The stars that we become when we die


I need to dance with life
Sweep you away into the night
When there is no one else around
I will make every day count


We need to dance with life
Swim in the soul of your eyes
'til we melt into the night
We need to dance with life
And we leave a brilliant light behind


It's no secret how I feel
This flesh and bone I love you is sealed
To cover me up and hide the deal
And the deal with me
To dance with life


Breathe the sweet fresh air
And make every second your last
And I'll touch you from the world I wake in
Make the most of the present and the past


I need to dance with life
Sweep you away into the night
When there is no one else around
I will make every day count


We need to dance with life
Swim in the soul of your eyes
'til we melt into the night
We need to dance with life
And we leave a brilliant light behind

"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" de George Harrison (para minha casa)


I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor
And I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world
And I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake
We must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

"The Creator Has A Master Plan" de Brooklin Funk Essentials (para Centro Espírita Caminho da Paz)


There was a time, when peace was on the Earth
And joy and happiness did reign and each man knew his worth
In my heart how I yearn for that spirit's return
And I cry, as time flies,
Om, om

There is a place where love forever shines
And rainbows are the shadows of a presence so divine
And the glow of that love lights the heavens above
And it's free, can't you see, come with me

The creator has a master plan,
Peace and happiness for every man
The creator has a working plan,
Peace and happiness for every man
The creator makes but one demand,
Hapiness through all the land

"Gimme Shelter" de The Rolling Stones (para Universidade Paulista)


Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away


(2x)
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away


Oh, see the fire is sweepin'
Our very street today
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way


(2x)
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away


Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away


(2x)
Rape, murder!
It's just a shot away


The floods is threat'ning
My very life today
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I'm gonna fade away


War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away (4x)


I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away (4x)
Kiss away (2x)

"Viva La Vida" de Coldplay (para Colégio Santa Maria)


I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listened as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs is singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone there was never
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Oh, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh(5x)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

"Warwick Avenue" de Duffy, Jimmy Hogarth & Eg White


When I get to Warwick Avenue
Meet me by the entrance of the tube
We can talk things over a little time
Promise me you won't stand by the light

When I get to Warwick Avenue
Please drop the past and be true
Don't think we're okay
Just because I'm here
You hurt me bad but I won't shed a tear

I'm leaving you for the last time baby
You think you're loving,
But you don't love me

And I've been confused
Outta my mind lately
You think you're loving,
But I want to be free, baby
You've hurt me.

When I get to Warwick Avenue
We'll spend an hour but no more than two
Our only chance to speak once more
I showed you the answers, now here's the door

When I get to Warwick Avenue
I'll tell ya baby there we're through

I'm leaving you for the last time baby
You think you're loving,
But you don't love me

I've been confused
Outta my mind lately
You think you're loving,
But you don't love me
I want to be free, baby
You've hurt me.

All the days spent together
I wish for better,
But I didn't want the train to come
Now it's departed, I'm broken hearted
Seems like we never started

All those days spent together
When I wished for better
And I didn't want the train to come.

No, no.
You think you're loving
But you don't love me
I want to be free, baby
You've hurt me

You don't love me
I want to be free
Baby you've hurt me

"Blackbird" de Paul McCartney


Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise


Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free


Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night


Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night


Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

"Mutante" de Rita Lee & Roberto de Carvalho


Juro que não vai doer se um dia eu roubar
O seu anel de brilhantes
Afinal de contas dei meu coração
E você pôs na estante

Como um troféu
No meio da bugiganga
Você me deixou de tanga
Ai de mim que sou romântica!

Kiss baby, kiss me baby, kiss me
Pena que você não me kiss
Não me suicidei por um triz
Ai de mim que sou assim!

Quando eu me sinto um pouco rejeitada
Me dá um nó na garganta
Choro até secar a alma de toda a mágoa
Depois eu passo pra outra

Como mutante
No fundo sempre sozinho
Seguindo o meu caminho
Ai de mim que sou romântica!

Kiss baby, kiss me baby, kiss me
Pena que você não me kiss
Não me suicidei por um triz
Ai de mim que sou assim!

"My Funny Valentine" de Bobby Darin, Richard Rodgers & Lorenz Hart (para a think-tank, incubadora e consultoria Volans)


My funny valentine...
Sweet, comic valentine...
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable, unphotographable
yet your my favorite work of art


Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
are you smart?


But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine
Stay
Each day is valentine's day.


Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
Are you smart?


But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine
Stay
Each day is Valentine's Day

"You Can't Always Get What You Want" de Mick Jagger & Keith Richards (para a ONG Doutores da Alegria)


I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand.
I knew she was gonna meet her connection,
At her feet was a footloose man.

And you can't always get what you want,
Honey, you can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need!


I went down to the demonstration
To get our fair share of abuse,
Singing, "We gonna vent our frustration."
If we don't we're gonna blow a fifty amp fuse.


And you can't always get what you want,
Honey, you can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, yeah
You just might find you get what you need!

So, I went to the Chelsea Drugstore
To get your prescription filled.
I was standing in line with my friend, Mr. Jimmy.
And man, did he look pretty ill.
We decided that we would have a soda,
My favorite flavour was cherry red.
I sing this song to my friend, Jimmy,
And he said one word to me and that was "dead."
And I said to him


And you can't always get what you want, honey.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want.
But if you try sometimes, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need!


I saw her today at the reception.
In her glass was a bleeding man.
She was practiced at the art of deception;
I could tell by her blood-stained hands.


And you can't always get what you want, honey.
You can't always get what you want.
You can't always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need!


And you can't always get what you want, honey,
You can't always get what you want,
You cant always get what you want,
But if you try sometimes, yeah,
You just might find you get what you need

"The Carpet Crawlers" de Genesis (para São Paulo)


There is lambswool under my naked feet
The wool is soft and warm
- Gives off some kind of heat
A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed
Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid

The fleas cling to the golden fleece
Hoping they'll find peace
Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid
There's no hiding in memory
There's no room to avoid

The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor
For my second sight of people, they've more life blood than before
They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door
Where the needle's eye is winking, closing on the poor

The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out"

There's only one direction in the faces that I see
It's upward to the ceiling, where the chamber's said to be
Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree
They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free

The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out"

Mild-mannered supermen are held in kryptonite
And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright
Through the door a harvest feast is lit by candle light
It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight

The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out"

The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack
And the eager pack lift up their pitchers - they carry all they lack
The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack
And the tickler takes his stickleback

The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out ..."

"God Only Knows" de The Beach Boys (para o Instituto de Bem Estar Levitas)


I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
