Far away

"This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming
you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing
if I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming
you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing
if I don't see you anymore

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathin
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go"

... things I'd love to hear...

"O amor é o ridículo da vida. A gente procura nele uma pureza impossível, uma pureza que está sempre se pondo, indo embora. A vida veio e me levou com ela. Sorte é se abandonar e aceitar essa vaga idéia de paraíso que nos persegue, bonita e breve, como as borboletas que só vivem 24 horas. Morrer não dói."

Cazuza

A dois passos

"Longe de casa
Há mais de uma semana
Milhas e milhas distante
Do meu amor
Será que ela está me esperando
Eu fico aqui sonhando
Eu vôo alto
Chego perto do céu

Saio de noite
Andando sozinho
Mas eu não entro em qualquer bar
Eu faço meu caminho
No rádio toca uma canção
Ela me faz lembrar você
Eu fico louco de emoção
E já não sei o que vou fazer

Estou a dois passos do paraíso
Não sei se vou voltar
Estou a dois passos do paraíso
Talvez eu fique por lá
Estou a dois passos do paraíso
Não sei por que eu fui dizer bye bye
Bye bye
Baby bye bye
Bye bye

Meu amor vou te buscar
Baby bye bye
Nunca mais vou te deixar
Talvez eu fique, fique por lá
Bye bye
Nunca mais vou te deixar
Baby bye bye"

Power of two

"...You know the things I'm afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that we loved each other well

Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people
Trying on the treasures of youth
But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth

Cause we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two

All the shiny little trinkets of temptation
Something new instead of something old
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
And it's fool's gold
Fool's gold

Now we're talking bout a difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
I took us for better and I took us for worse
Now don't you ever forget

Now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
And the closer I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free

Cause we're okay, we're fine
Baby I'm here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that's true
Multiply life by the power of two"

Canção do dia de sempre

"Tão bom viver dia a dia...
A vida assim, jamais cansa...
Viver tão só de momentos
Como estas nuvens no céu...

E só ganhar, toda a vida,
Inexperiência... esperança...
E a rosa louca dos ventos
Presa à copa do chapéu.

Nunca dês um nome a um rio:
Sempre é outro rio a passar.
Nada jamais continua,
Tudo vai recomeçar!

E sem nenhuma lembrança
Das outras vezes perdidas,
Atiro a rosa do sonho
Nas tuas mãos distraídas..."

All your strength

A mother and a son are walking on the road, and they see a big rock.
The son says to the mother,
"Do you think I can pick up that big rock over there?"

And she says,
"Yes, I'm certain you can lift it, if you use all your strength."

So, he goes over and he tries to lift the rock. He tries a bunch of times, until finally he says,
"I couldn't do it."

So she goes over there and together they lift the rock.
And she explains to him, that sometimes using all your strength means asking for help.
