My Song



EU FUI! EU FUI! EU FUI! EU FUI! EU FUI!

Ah, moleque! E ouvi e cantei as minhas músicas favoritas. O engraçado é que elas fazem parte da trilha sonora da minha vida [tocavam no rádio e na vizinha sem parar], mas eu nunca cantei prestando atenção nas letras. Era no módulo play e "vambora"!

Na hora de cantar "serinho", você percebe que as letras são de uma profundidade incrível, trabalhadas na delicadeza e na inpiração de primeira qualidade. Não é a toa que um cara no piano comove e arrebata gerações há tanto tempo [tudo bem, a tia velha é excêntrica e cheia de salamaleques. Mas fez e faz história com tudo a que tem direito].

Pois bem. Separei uns trechos das minhas preferidas para dividir com vocês:

Don't let the sun go down on me / Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see / I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free / But losing everything is like the sun going down on me - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

And I guess that's why / They call it the blues / Time on my hands / Could be time spent with you / Laughing like children / Living like lovers / Rolling like thunder under the covers / And I guess that's why / They call it the blues - I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues

Cold cold heart / Hard done by you / Some things look better baby / Just passin' through / And it's no sacrifice / Just a simple word / It's two hearts living / In two separate worlds / But it's no sacrifice / No sacrifice / It's no sacrifice at all - Sacrifice

What have I got to do to make you love me? / What have I got to do to make you care? / What do I do when lightening strikes me? And I wake to find that you are not there - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no / Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show / I know it's not much but it's the best I can do / My gift is my song and this one's for you / And you can tell everybody this is your song / It may be quite simple but now that it's done / I hope you don't mind / I hope you don't mind that I put down in words / How wonderful life is now you're in the world - Your Song

E uma das preferidas em letra e ritmo (dancei pakas!):

Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain / And ironing out the rough spots / Is the hardest part when memories remain / And it's times like these when we all need to hear the radio / Cause from the lips of some old singer / We can share the troubles we already know / Turn them on, turn them on / Turn on those sad songs / When all hope is gone / Why don't you tune in and turn them on / They reach into your room / Just feel their gentle touch / When all hope is gone / Sad songs say so much - Sad Songs
