Hold on...

Didn't they always say we were the lucky ones.
I guess that we were once, babe, we were once,
but luck will leave you cursed, it is a faithless friend,
and in the end, when life has got you down,
you've got someone here that you can wrap your arms around.

So hold on to me tight,
hold on to me tonight.
We are stronger here together,
than we could ever be alone.
So hold on to me,
don't you ever let me go.

There's a thousand ways for things to fall apart,
but it's no ones fault, no it's not my fault.
Maybe all the plans we made might not work out,
but I have no doubt, even though it's hard to see.
I've got faith in us, and I believe in you and me.

So hold on to me tight.
Hold on, I promise it will be alright.
Cuz it's you and me together,
and baby all we've got is time.
So hold on to me,
hold on to me tonight.

There's so many dreams that we have given up.
Take a look at all we've got,
and with this kind of love,
and what we've got here is enough.

So hold on to me tight.
Hold on, I promise it will be alright.
Cuz we are stronger here together,
than we could ever be alone.
Just hold on to me,
don't you ever let me go.
Hold on to me, it's gonna be alright.
Hold on to me tonight.

They always say, we were the lucky ones.

Michael Bublé - Hold on

Don't worry...

Porque a vida deve de ser encarada com um sorriso...

Chuva...

Já a tinha ouvido, mas agora que lhe conheço a letra, mais gosto dela...

As coisas vulgares que há na vida
Não deixam saudades
Só as lembranças que doem
Ou fazem sorrir

Há gente que fica na história
da história da gente
e outras de quem nem o nome
lembramos ouvir

São emoções que dão vida
à saudade que trago
Aquelas que tive contigo
e acabei por perder

Há dias que marcam a alma
e a vida da gente
e aquele em que tu me deixaste
não posso esquecer

A chuva molhava-me o rosto
Gelado e cansado
As ruas que a cidade tinha
Já eu percorrera

Ai... meu choro de moça perdida
gritava à cidade
que o fogo do amor sob chuva
há instantes morrera

A chuva ouviu e calou
meu segredo à cidade
E eis que ela bate no vidro
Trazendo a saudade

Letra de Jorge Fernando... na voz de Mariza...

Encosta-te a mim...

(depois de me terem convencido a ouvir o seu novo álbum... cá estou eu a "dar a mão à palmatória"... vidrei nesta música... absolutamente linda...)

Jorge Palma - Encosta-te a mim
Encosta-te a mim,
nós já vivemos cem mil anos
encosta-te a mim,
talvez eu esteja a exagerar
encosta-te a mim,
dá cabo dos teus desenganos
não queiras ver quem eu não sou,
deixa-me chegar.
Chegado da guerra,
fiz tudo p'ra sobreviver em nome da terra,
no fundo p'ra te merecer
recebe-me bem,
não desencantes os meus passos
faz de mim o teu herói,
não quero adormecer.

Tudo o que eu vi,
estou a partilhar contigo
o que não vivi, hei-de inventar contigo
sei que não sei, às vezes entender o teu olhar
mas quero-te bem, encosta-te a mim.

Encosta-te a mim,
desatinamos tantas vezes
vizinha de mim, deixa ser meu o teu quintal
recebe esta pomba que não está armadilhada
foi comprada, foi roubada, seja como for.
Eu venho do nada porque arrasei o que não quis
em nome da estrada onde só quero ser feliz
enrosca-te a mim, vai desarmar a flor queimada
vai beijar o homem-bomba, quero adormecer.

Tudo o que eu vi,
estou a partilhar contigo o que não vivi,
um dia hei-de inventar contigo
sei que não sei, às vezes entender o teu olhar
mas quero-te bem, encosta-te a mim

Encosta-te a mim
Encosta-te a mim

Quero-te bem.

Encosta-te a mim.

I love you...

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

For the morning sun and all it's glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort, too
You fill my heart with laughter
Somehow, you make it better
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

Take away my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

Take away my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

You and me...

You and me, me and you
There’s so much that we’ve been through,
through it all I’ve come to understand Gods love.
And if tomorrow never comes
know this twice, just know this once.
Knowing you has made me able to go on.

You and me, me and you
There couldn’t be a better two,
to be blessed and know the meaning of true love.
And if you leave me I feel scared,
fall apart so unprepared.
But I dare to make it trough all on my own.
Yes I dare to make it trough on my own.

Rosie Thomas - You and me

You're My Goal...

You know where I've come from,
You know my story,
You know why I'm standing here...
Tonight, Please don't go,
Don't be in a hurry,
I'm here to make it clear,
Make it right,

Well I know I've acted foolish,
But I promise you no more,
I've finally found that something
Worth reaching for,

I'm not here to say I'm sorry,
I'm not here to lie to you,
I'm here to say I'm ready,
That I've finally thought it through,
I'm not here to let you're love go,
I'm not giving up oh no,
I'm here to win your heart and soul,
That's my goal.

Please don't go,
You know that I need you,
And can't breath without you,
Live without you,
Be without you,
Well I know I've acted foolish,
But i promise you no more,

I'm not here to say I'm sorry,
I'm not here to lie to you,
I'm here to say I'm ready,
That I've finally thought it through,
I'm not here to let you're love go,
I'm not giving up oh no,
I'm here to win your heart and soul,
That's my goal.

Well i won't stop believing,
That we will be leaving together,
So when I say i love you,
I mean it forever and ever, ever and ever....

I'm not here to say I'm sorry,
I'm not here to say I'm sorry,
I'm not here to lie to you,
I'm here to say I'm ready,
That I've finally thought it through,
I'm not here to let you're love go,
I'm not giving up oh no,
I'm here to win your heart and soul,
Yes I'm here to win your heart and soul,
Thats my goal....

Shayne Ward - That's My Goal

When You Love Someone

(Enquanto termino o meu novo texto, deixo-vos uma música do Bryan Adams que eu ouvi há pouco tempo e que adorei...)

Bryan Adams - When You Love Someone

when you love someone
you'll do anything
you'll do all the crazy things
that you can't explain
you'll shoot the moon
put out the sun
when you love someone

you'll deny the truth
believe a lie
there'll be times that you'll believe
you could really fly
but your lonely nights
have just begun
when you love someone

when you love someone
you'll feel it deep inside
and nothin else
can ever change your mind
when you want someone
when you need someone
when you love someone...

when you love someone
you'll sacrifice
you'd give it everything you got
and you won't think twice
you'd risk it all
no matter what may come
when you love someone
you'll shoot the moon
put out the sun
when you love someone...

(Redescobri esta música há pouco tempo e com ela voltaram (boas) recordações...)

Bryan Adams - Flying

If you ever feel like you're gonna fall - oh I’ll be there
And if you ever feel down or feel small - oh don't despair
And if you ever feel lost or feel alone - babe come on home

Let’s just make love - all night
Let’s just hold on - so tight
Let’s make it last - for life
I won't let you go

Yeah we're flying - feels just like flying
We’re such a long way up - from the ground
Just you and me flying - so high and I’m never gonna come down

Every time you turn around I wanna run - oh come to me
When every little dream comes undone - oh don't worry

Let’s just make love - all night
Let’s just hold on - so tight
Let’s make it last - for life
I won't let you go

Yeah we're flying - feels just like flying
It’s such so long way up - from the ground (yeah)
Just you and me flying - so high and I never gonna come down (Nooo)

Just you and me (oo)
Lets just make love - al night
Lets just hold on - so thigh
Let’s make it last – for life

I won’t let you go
Yeah we're flying - feels just like flying (oo)
It’s such a long way up - (oo) from the ground (yeah we’re flying)
Feels just like flying (Feels just like flying)
It’s such so long way up - from the ground
Yeah we’re flying – so high and…

We’re never gonna come down…you and me

Para nunca mais tentar mentir.

Para ver, para dar
para estar, para ter
para ir, p'ra ouvir
p'ra sorrir e entrar
para rir, p'ra voltar
a tentar, p'ra sentir
e mudar, p'ra voltar
a cair, para me levantar
para nunca mais tentar mentir.

P'ra crescer, para amar
para ser o lugar
p'ra viver e gostar
de gostar de viver
p'ra fugir, p'ra mostrar
p'ra dizer, p'ra ter paz p'ra dormir,
p'ra fingir, acordar
para ser, derramar
para nunca mais tentar mentir.

Happy Valentine's Day

(uma linda música dedicada a todos aqueles que estão apaixonados e são correspondidos, aos que sofrem por não o serem e àqueles que desejam apaixonar-se acima de tudo...)

Michael Bublé- Home

Another summer day
Is come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people
I Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know

And I’ve been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aerorplane
Another sunny place
I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I’ve got to go home

Let me go home
I’m just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life
It’s like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
But this was not your dream
But you always believe in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I’m surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel alone
Oh, let go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I’ve had my run
Baby, I’m done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
I’ll be home tonight
I’m coming back home

Whole Again...

If you see me walking down the street
Staring at the sky
And dragging my two feet
You just pass me by
It still makes me cry
But you can make me whole again

And If you see me with another man
I'm Laughin and I'm jokin'
Tryin to get by
I Won't put you down
'Cuz i want you around
You can make me whole again

Looking back on when we first met
I can not escape and i can not forget
Baby you're the one, you still turn me on
You can make me whole again

Time is layin' heavy on my heart
Seems I've got too much of it
Since we've been apart
My friends make me smile
If only for while
You can make me whole again

Lookin' back on when we first met
I can not escape and I can not forget
Baby you're the one, you still turn me on
You can make me whole again

For now I'll have to wait
But baby if you change your mind
Don't be too late
Cause I just can't go on
It's already been too long
But you could make me whole again

Lookin' back on when we first met
I can not escape and I can not forget
Baby you're the one, you still turn me on
You can make me whole again

Enfeitiçada...

Foi Feitiço- André Sardet

Eu gostava de olhar para ti
E dizer-te que és uma luz
Que me acende a noite
me guia de dia e seduz

Eu gostava de ser como tu
Não ter asas e poder voar
ter o céu como fundo
ir ao fim do mundo e voltar

Eu não sei o que me aconteceu
Foi feitiço!
O que é que me deu?
para gostar tanto assim
de alguém como tu

Eu gostava que olhasses
para mim
E sentisses que sou o teu mar
Mergulhasses sem medo
Um olhar, um segredo
Só para eu te abraçar

O primeiro impulso é sempre + justo
É + verdadeiro
E o primeiro susto
Dá voltas e voltas
Na volta redonda de um beijo profundo

Um dia...

Close your eyes so you don't feel them
They don't need to see you cry
I can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
To sing this summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed
It's true
Someone said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt
In you
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity, for eternity
Yesterday when we were walking
You talked about your ma and dad
What they did that made you happy
What they did that made you sad
We sat and watched the sun go down
Then picked a star before we lost
The moon
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone
Too soon
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity, for eternity
For eternity
To sing this summer serenade
The past is done we've been betrayed
It's true
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone
Too soon
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I hope you'll find your freedom
For eternity
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I know you'll find your freedom
Eventually
For eternity, for eternity


(A ti... a vocês... ao Mundo... até breve...)

Até Sempre

Hoje venho só dedicar esta música do Robbie Williams a uma pessoa que me foi muito especial.

"Nan's Song"

You said when you'd die that you'd walk
with me every day
And I'd start to cry and say please don't talk that way
With the blink of an eye the Lord came
and asked you to leave
You went to a better place but He stole you
away from me

And now she lives in heaven
But I know they let her out
To take care of me

There's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear she is near
Bringing heaven down here

I miss your love I miss your touch
But I'm feeling you every day
And I can almost hear you say
"You've come a long way baby"

And now you live in heaven
But I know they let you out
To take care of me

There's a strange kind of light
In my bedroom tonight
Pray silence my fear she is near
Bring your heaven down here

You taught me kings and queens
While stroking my hair
In my darkest hour I know you are there
Kneeling down beside me
Whispering my prayer

Yes there's a strange kind of light
Caressing me tonight
Pray silence my fear
She is near
Bringing heaven down here

The next time that we meet
I will bow at her feet
And say wasn't life sweet
Then we'll prepare
To take heaven down there

(Avó, neste momento em que as palavras custam a sair, apenas te posso dizer que nunca te esquecerei. Até sempre.)

Angel

Hoje, por falta de inspiração, deixo-vos a letra de uma música da Sarah McLachlan que eu gosto de ouvir sempre que preciso de relaxar. Espero que também gostem, até porque é uma letra magnífica.



"Angel"

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it ok
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty and weightless
And maybe I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Far away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness
Oh this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
Far away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
