You're Shaken

Your dress was floating ‘round you
Like flowers do
When the soft wind blows
Like a pretty girl’s dream
Sweet and naïve
A beauty unknown
You wanted to burn with love
Give your everything
Share your body and your soul
For dawn always remembers
To bring you light
And warm you up inside
So may the days be sweet
And the moon shine
May your heart beat
And make you feel alive
You’re shaken
And you will be shaken again
‘Cause you know
How this will end
He drank water from your lips
Salt from your eyes
Wrapped his hands around your mind
He wrote you poems
For you to keep
In the secret of your garden
You saved his promises
In your heart sealed
Like water in cement
But passion and love
May disappear
Like morning dew in the wind
As days go by
And cool nights fall
In your saddest dream
Where the moon is dark
You’re shaken
And you will be shaken again
‘Cause you know
How this will end
You’re shaken
And you will be shaken again
Now you know
That you’ve lost your man
Without you realizing
Years are gone
Nothing will be the same
Like a tree waiting
For spring to come
Naked you will remain

Ask Me
03:19
|

|
I still had the key
But I knocked anonymously
For years, I ran away
From our abysses
I see through the window
I remember chaos
How did we end this way?
Despite the pieces we lost
The torn photos of us
I think of you always
I just want to talk
But I stay still
Like a scared bird
Like a fragile kid
I face my remorses,
Sorrows and wrongs
Sadness invades me
I stood guard so long
It weakened my heart
It broke my body
Oh, ask me
If I want to stay
Ask me
I promise that I changed
I know you see
The tears in my eyes
And I'll let you take care of me
New lines on your face
Like a measure of time
Traces of shivers and joy
Try to cover the pain
Wisdom in your bones
It guided you down the road
You kept changing
Me in a watchtower
Waiting for hours
I was so lonely
Oh, ask me
If I want to stay
Ask me
I promise that I changed
I know you see
The tears in my eyes
And I'll let you take care of me
Oh, look at me
I’m so tired now
Forgive me
I want no more wars
I know you see
That I dropped the gun
And I'll let you take care of me
I'll let you take care of me
And I'll let you take care of me

Laura said
Take me with you
It’s not easy to blur
The colours painted on my heart
They could be good for you
When your world is falling down
The old days are gone
Emptiness is making you feel blue
I'll take some for you
As the morning breaks for the two of us
May the sun rise and the birds sing low
We can grow old and it won’t be sad
Just because we loved our lives
She softly pulled
The arrow from his arm
And she set him free
Blood flowed
Delicately weaving lines
As pain disappeared
He gave his answer with a smile
He wanted her near
There’s room
Waiting for her in his heart
All is possible
He finds himself in the green of her eyes
Shining without gold, feeling rich inside
Forgetting the things he lost to the past
All the lies that made him cry

You Will Not Die
03:21
|
|||
|
As we lie down on the sand
Quiet shore, silver sky
Somewhere in the lines of our hands
Our faces, our smiles
In the embers of volcanoes on fire
Even in the never ending winter
I would love you to stay
And feel you here with me
A million more years and days
You will not die
And my dreams shall be our only saviors
A delay that makes you live forever
So I will remember
The sweetness in your voice
Here with me
Whenever I’m sad
Oh, when twilight falls
On the wildflower fields
Soft rain echoes on the land,
Resonates in my ear
And the waters, they’ll carry us wherever
In the hope of reaching a new goal
I would love you to stay
And feel you here with me
A million more years and days
You will not die
In my blood, in my joy
You’ll be alive

In the River
03:10
|
|||
|
A thousand times
You were there for me
I can't count them
There’s too many
When I was worried
When I was cold
Your arms around me
Like a warm coat
I see my eyes
In the mirror of the river
Let my tears
Find shelter in the water
Lying in this
Sweet bed of waves
I let my sorrow
Flow away
When changes turned me
Upside down
Upside down
You by my side
Through rain and storm
Remember when
I hurt myself
You hurt yourself
You made me laugh
Healed me with kisses
I healed you with kisses
I see my eyes
In the mirror of the river
Mirror of the river
Let my tears
Find shelter in the water
Shelter in the water
Lying in this
Sweet bed of waves
Sweet bed of waves
I let my sorrow
Flow away
You are gone
But I have to be brave
Early in the morning
I thought of you
You thought of me
I saw a rainbow
Shine through the window
Now you’re gone
I’m on my own
You’re on your own
But memories of you
Still keep me warm
Keep you warm
I see my eyes
In the mirror of the river
Mirror of the river
Burning tears
Find shelter in the water
Shelter in the water
I miss you
And everything is wrong
Everything is wrong
But I have to go
And live on my own
You are gone
Still I am not alone
You’re not alone
You remain with me until infinity
I remain with you until infinity
You remain with me until infinity
I remain with you until infinity

On Gallaway Road
03:27
|
|||
|
Summer was going away
A heavy sun blinded the eyes of jaded bodies
In a hurry
And there, I saw you
Bloodstains on your little shoulders
Walking slow
On Gallaway Road
La la la…
Under your blue-colored hair
Your broken eyes
So tired of crying
Salty tears
Thorns of a rose
I heard your dog barking
Hidden behind your legs
He wallowed
In your ghosts
On Gallaway Road
La la la...
And there, I saw them
These people who
Stepped over you
But I didn’t stay
I was in a hurry
I should have taken the time
And in your hands
Put a couple of cents
You stayed alone
On Gallaway Road
La la la…
Sun’s so heavy
On Gallaway Road

Leo Leo
We’re all on fire
But your words
Still calm me down
The luminous boats
Want you on board
The scent of those flowers
Is so sad
Leo Leo
I’d like to do better
But you see
I’m not brave enough
Cause we lose our heroes
One after another
And the raptors
All rush in their yards
La la la...
Leo your echoes
Slow down the crowds
And haunt their minds
As they walk
You said broken bodies
Know how to hold love
And their beauty
Can also end wars
But I still lose
The glow of my youth
I hold on to it so tight
Leo you knew
Time unties promises
And people fade
Taking their turn
Leo Oh Leo
I couldn’t do better
Than to hope
Their games are over
La la la…

Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain u
s
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial, a denial
