"Verita"

"Verita"


Perchè evitiamo quella verità
Che niente dura per sempre
Ci nascondiamo e poi
Neghiamo noi
Perciò non siamo insieme

Amo la verità
Che mi rimargina
Che mi pulisce l'anima come la pioggia lava via
Amo la verità
Anche s e fa male lasciarsi
Andare voglio solo un po' di verità

Che ci sarà in questo amore che
Fa paura se si perde
Che amore è se poi
Ci intrappoliamo
Questo non lo voglio piú

Amo la verità
Che mi rimargina
Che mi pulisce l'anima come la pioggia lava via
Amo la verità
Anche s e fa male lasciarsi
Andare voglio solo un po' di verità

Non dire addio
Non dire addio
Ilcuore ti guiderià

Amo la verità
Che mi rimargina
Che mi pulisce l'anima come la pioggia lava via
Amo la verità
Anche s e fa male lasciarsi
Andare voglio solo un po' di verità

"Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)"

"Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)"


Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colours on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds and violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colours changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artists' loving hand

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They're not listening still
Perhaps they never will...

"Voce Existe Em Mim"

"Voce Existe Em Mim"


Vim amar você ate o final
Da chuva que navega nosso corpo tropical
Espero amar você ate durar
A lua que esclarece esse sol sem descansar jamais
Amar o quanto precisar que ame
E então recuse a escuridão te amo
Pra que chorar
Chorar é fim
Você existe em mim
Vim servi amor e aterrissar
Os anjos dos meus versos
Pra você nao me deixar de amar
Serra que em deus os versos nascem assim
Como em toda primavera nascem flores
Pra mimar jardim
Amar o quanto precisar que ame
E então recuse a escuridão te amo
Pra que chorar
Chorar é fim
Você existe em mim
A areia lambe o sal
Ja passou o temporal e a solução so você e eu
A alma bebe o mar que vazou do coração
E você me faz me fazer feliz
Amar o quanto precisar que ame
E então recuse a escuridão te amo
Pra que chorar
Chorar é fim
Você existe em mim

"War At Home"

"War At Home"


A fallen brother,
He's a
A fallen husband,
He's about to be woken in his hospital bed
Doesn't want to rest
Just wants to run
And he's tired of being told that he's the lucky one
A caped crusader,
She's a
Newborn leader, but
You should see her when her daughter's on the phone
And she wipes the tears away
And she laces up because there's still hell to pay
And it sure feels like hell today
Today
And she says,
You see these hands?
They're bruised and brown
They're yours alone
Hold on love
We're still going down
Hold on love
We're still fighting at home
The war at home
Innocence behind his broken expression
He's a child of mercy
He's an unlearned lesson
And he's trying to wake up
From this wilderness his world has now become
He's reaching out to those he's running from
And he says
You see these hands?
They're bruised and brown
They're yours alone
Hold on now
We're still going down
Hold on now
We're still fighting
And it's
One step forward, two steps back
This is all who are marching
One step forward, two steps back
This is young at home
One step forward, two steps back
Through the void of the silence
You are not alone
You see these hands?
They're millions strong
They are yours now
Hold on now
We're all going down
Hold on now

"Weeping"
(feat. Ladysmith Black Mambazo)

"Weeping"
(feat. Ladysmith Black Mambazo)



I knew a man who lived in fear
It was huge, it was angry,
It was drawing near.
Behind his house a secret place
Was the shadow of the demon
He could never face.

He built a wall of steel and flame
And men with guns to keep it tame
Then standing back he made it plain
That the nightmare would never ever rise again
But the fear and the fire and the guns remain.

[Chorus:]
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
He tells the world that it's sleeping
But as the night came round
I heard its lonely sound
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping
It wasn't roaring, it was weeping.

And then one day the neighbours came
They were curious to know about the smoke and flame
They stood around outside the wall
But of course there was nothing to be heard at all
"My friends," he said, "We've reached our goal
The threat is under firm control
As long as peace and order reign
I'll be damned if I can see a reason to explain
Why the fear and the fire and the guns remain."

[Chorus]

Say ah, say ah, say ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah

[Ladysmith's solo]

It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow
It doesn't matter now it's over anyhow

[Chorus]

Say ah, say ah, say ah
Say ah, say ah, say ah [to end]

"What Child Is This?"

"What Child Is This?"


What child is this
Who lay to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to own him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary

O raise, raise a song on high
His mother sings a lullaby
Joy, oh joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary

What child is this who lay to rest
On Mary's lap, on Mary's lap he is sleeping

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Son of Mary

(from "A Chorus Line" musical)

"What I Did For Love"
(from "A Chorus Line" musical)



Kiss today goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
Wish me luck, the same to you
But I can't regret
What I did for love, what I did for love

Look, my eyes are dry
The gift was ours to borrow
It's as if we always knew
And I won't forget what I did for love
What I did for love

Gone
Love is never gone
As we travel on
Love's what we'll remember

Kiss today goodbye
And point me toward tomorrow
We did what we had to do
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for love

What I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love

"When You Say You Love Me"

"When You Say You Love Me"


Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream.
Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breathe.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

[bridge:]
And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment,I know why I'm alive

When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?

"With You"

"With You"


Sometimes I remember reasons I let you go
Inside them I see your face and all I really know
I was scared to share the love I have inside of me
Through all the heartache I know that I was meant to be...

With you
I have everything I've ever wanted
Simple and true
With you
Crying eyes so beautiful
It's you who always thought our love would see us through

If I could follow my heart again it would be yours
with every breath I would find a way to love you more
I can't imagine life without your silent bravery
And I'm grateful for every moment that I get to be...

With you
I have everything I've ever wanted
Simple and true
With you
Loving eyes so beautiful
It's you who always finds a way

And if the stars should disappear
In the dark I'll still be here
Forever in your arms where I belong

With you
I have everything I've ever wanted
Simple and true
With you
Loving eyes so beautiful
It's you who always knew our love would see us through

With you

"You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)"

"You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)"


Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When your heart's heavy
I...I will lift it for you

Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you
I...I will break it for you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

Don't give up
It's just the hurt that you hide
When you're lost inside
I...I will be there to find you

Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you
I...I will shine to guide you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

You are loved
Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
Don't give up
Every one needs to be heard
You are loved
