Better days

"I feel part of the universe open up to meet me

My emotion so submerged broken down to kneeling

What's listening?

Voices they care

Had to somehow greet myself

Greet myself

Heard vibrations within my cells

In my cells

Singin' laaa

My love is saved for the universe

See me now I'm bursting

On one planet so many turns

Different worlds

Singin' laaa

Fill my heart with discipline

Put there for the teaching

In my head see clouds of stairs

Help me as I'm reaching

The future's paved

With better days

Night runnin'

From something

I'm running towards the day

Wide awake

All whispered

Once quiet

Now rising to a scream

Right in me

I'm fallin'

Free fallin'

World's calling me

Up off my knees

Oh, I'm soaring

Yeah, and darling

You'll be the one that I can need

And still be free

Our future's paved with better days"

Eddie Vedder

Frutos da terra

"O fruto bom dá no tempo
No pé pra gente tirar
Quem colhe fora do tempo
Não sabe o que o tempo dá"

Composição: Jurandy da Feira
Na voz de Renato Braz

Canção pra Jade (ou pro Pedrinho)

"Desde quando eu te vi
Tudo ficou mais lindo:
A rua, a lua, o sol no céu luzindo.

Olhando teu olhar,
Ouvindo a tua voz
Chego a não crer,
A me surpreender, feliz, sorrindo.

Estrela singular
Da luz do amor nascida.
Antieclipse lunar da minha vida.

A cada passo teu
Segue meu coração,
Por entre os móveis,
Calçadas, parques e avenidas.

Viva cada instante, viva cada momento,
Proteja da razão teu sentimento.
Tente ser feliz enquanto
A tristeza estiver distraída.
Conte comigo
A cada segundo dessa vida.

E o tempo vai passar
Ao longo dessa estrada.
Novas estórias lhe serão então contadas.
E você vai crescer,
Sonhar, sorrir, sofrer
Entre vilões, moinhos, dragões e poucas fadas."

Composição: Toquinho / Mutinho

Pedrinho, filho da minha querida amiga-irmã Palloma, no dia do seu nascimento.

How to save a life

"Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you...

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed

He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life..."

The Fray
Composição: Isaac Slade / Joe King

Então vá se perder

"Então vá se perder

Tudo que eu te disse

Eu nem tinha pra dizer

Os lugares parecem

Te prender ao chão

Teus pés aonde irão

Sem mim?

Então vá se trocar

Lavar o seu passado

Mudar pra não mudar

Os passos

Sapatos, pés

E tornar-te quem tu és

O mistério da sua fé

Em si

Crescer, sumir, partir, chegar

Revirar e se descobrir

Se elaborar, se transformar...

Me diz como fugir do que levamos por dentro

Me diz como fugir do que levamos por dentro

Quando

Você irá cair

Em si?

Então vá se perder

Tudo que eu te disse

Eu nem tinha pra dizer

Os lugares parecem

Te prender ao chão

Teus pés aonde irão

Sem mim?"

Broken

"The broken clock is a comfort
it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow
from stealing all my time

And I am here still waiting
though I still have my doubts
I am damaged at best,
like you've already figured out

I'm falling apart,
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to you

The broken locks were a warning
you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded,
I'm an open book instead

I still see your reflection
inside of my eyes
They are looking for a purpose,
they're still looking for life

I'm falling apart,
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm hangin' on another day
Just to see what you will throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words you say
You said that I will be OK

The broken lights on the freeway
left me here alone
I may have lost my way now
haven't forgotten my way home

I'm falling apart,
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
that's still beating
In the pain there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm barely holdin' on to you"

Acima do sol

""Assim ela já vai
Achar o cara que lhe queira
Como você não quis fazer
Sim, eu sei que ela só vai
Achar alguém pra vida inteira
Como você não quis...

Tão fácil perceber
Que a sorte escolheu você
E você cego, nem nota
Quando tudo ainda é nada
Quando o dia é madrugada
Você gastou sua cota...

Eu não posso te ajudar
Esse caminho não há outro
Que por você faça
Eu queria insistir
Mas o caminho só existe
Quando você passa...

Quando muito ainda é pouco
Você quer infantil e louco
Um sol acima do sol
Mas quando sempre
É sempre nunca
Quando ao lado ainda
É muito mais longe
Que qualquer lugar...

Um dia ela já vai
Achar o cara que lhe queira
Como você não quis fazer
Sim, eu sei que ela só vai
Achar alguém prá vida inteira
Como você não quis...

Se a sorte lhe sorriu
Porque não sorrir de volta
Você nunca olha a sua volta
Não quero estar sendo mau
Moralista ou banal
Aqui está o que me afligia...

Um dia ela já vai
Achar o cara que lhe queira
Como você não quis fazer
Sim, eu sei que ela só vai
Achar alguém pra vida inteira
Como você não quis..."

Na primeira manhã

"Na primeira manhã que te perdi
Acordei mais cansado que sozinho
Como um conde falando aos passarinhos
Como uma bumba-meu-boi sem capitão
E gemi como geme o arvoredo
Como a brisa descendo das colinas
Como quem perde o prumo e desatina
Como um boi no meio da multidão

Na segunda manhã que te perdi
Era tarde demais pra ser sozinho
Cruzei ruas, estradas e caminhos
Como um carro correndo em contramão
Pelo canto da boca num sussurro
Fiz um canto demente, absurdo
O lamento noturno dos viúvos
Como um gato gemendo no porão
Solidão."

Composição: Alceu Valença

Lucky

"JASON: Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying

COLBIE: Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

BOTH: I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

BOTH: They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

BOTH: I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

JASON: And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair

COLBIE: Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

BOTH: I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday"

Jason Mraz feat. Colbie Caillat

Both sides now

"Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I've looked at clouds that way

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud's illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

Moons and junes and ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way

But now it's just another show
You leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away

I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

But now old friends are acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well somethings lost, but somethings gained
In living every day

I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all

I've looked at life from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all"

Joni Mitchell

That particular time

"my foundation was rocked
my tried and true way to deal was to vanish
my departures were old
I stood in the room shaking in my boots

at that particular time
love had challenged me to stay
at that particular moment
I knew not run away again
that particular month
I was ready to investigate with you
at that particular time

we thought a break would be good
for four months we sat and vacillated
we thought a small time apart
would clear up the doubts that were abounding

at that particular time
love encouraged me to wait
at that particular moment
it helped me to be patient
that particular month
we needed time to marinate in what "us" meant
at that particular time

I've always wanted for you
what you've wanted for yourself
and yet I wanted to save us high water or hell
and I kept on ignoring the ambivalence you felt
and in the meantime I lost myself
in the meantime I lost myself
I'm sorry I lost myself
i am

you knew you needed more time
time spent alone with no distraction
you felt you needed to fly
solo and high
to define what you wanted

at that particular time
love encouraged me to leave
at that particular moment
I knew staying with you meant deserting me
that particular month
was harder than you'd believe
but I still left
at that particular time"

Alanis Morissette

Who knew

"If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew

My darling
Who knew"

Long Way To Happy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3G4zIr3MiM

"One night to you
Lasted six weeks for me
Just a bitter little pill now
Just to try to go to sleep

No more waking up to innocence
Say hello to hesitance
To everyone I meet
Thanks to you years ago
I guess I'll never know
What love means to me but oh

I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling

It's gonna take a long time to loveI
t's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy

Left my childhood behind
In a roll away bed
Everything was so damn simple
Now I'm losing my head

Trying to cover up the damage
And pad out all the bruises
Do you know I had it
So it didn't hurt to lose it
Didn't hurt to lose it
No but oh

I'll keep on rolling down this road
But I've got a bad, bad feeling

It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way

Now I'm numb as hell and I can't feel a thing
But don't worry about regret or guilt
cause I never knew your name
I just want to thank you
Thank you
From the bottom of my heart
For all the sleepless nights
And for tearing me apart yeah yeah

It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way

It's gonna take a long time to love
It's gonna take a lot to hold on
It's gonna be a long, long, long, long way to happy, yeah
Left in the pieces that you broke me into
Torn apart but now I've got to
Keep on rolling like a stone
Cause it's gonna be a long long way to happy"
