Your Answer

Yesterday your name accidentally slipped under my door
Which your memory half-opened when passing by
They gathered to listen to the old dreams
As if trying to decipher an answer
Just finding a padlocked love
With the padlock of indifference
 
I need an offer from you1
Because it's time to try and give a closure2
Piling up empty words it's useless for me
I only expect concrete actions from this love
Words are gone with the wind
And the wind is always spinnng
 
I want to know if I can count on you
In case I decide to double down
I want to know if it was only a delusion
A mistake of our oblivion
Because if I'm going all in
I only need your answer
 
There is still hope for this love
And there's no way to shut it out
When in half-dark, I lose my mind over your name
And this heartless silence answers me
But your memory lightens up at night
Since missing you by my side became a habit3
 
Sometimes I think love is a bonfire
That dazzles us and blinds us in its glow
The instinct of survival condemn us
To this pain of feeling fire through our veins
And even if the dagger of betrayal hurts us
We keep tripping over the same stone
 

• 1. Literally 'I need an offer out of your lips'.
• 2. Literally 'Because it's time to try and pay off sums'.
• 3. Literally 'Since missing you in my skin became a habit'.

The Tabby Cat and the Sinha Swallow

The world will only be good
To live in
On the day we see
a Maltese cat marry
A happy swallow
Both leaving to fly
The groom and his bride
Sir Gato and Madame Swallow

Mmm-Bah Dah

Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
 
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
 
They inherited from the night the colour that is the colour of mystery
But they had white hair and a white soul
They had in their eyes the certainty that exists in seriousness
And in their smile a sweetness and a calmness
 
Their arms were my favourite cradle
Their song was the desired spell
That lulled me and I, a sleeping boy
Listened dreaming
 
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
 
Their black hands came together asking:
Lord Jesus, look after the boy, my Lord
Make it so that the demon does not come to pursue him
Lord Jesus, show him peace and love
 
It is me now that asks no in my prayer
For God to show you my gratitude
I did not forget you nor did I forget your song
That I sing for you
 
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
 
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah
Ay mmm-bah dah, mmm-bah day oh mmm-bah dah

In the Heart of Autumn

This golden workshop, madame,
if you loosen your tresses,
your corset, your ample breasts,
will go up in flames.
 
Death is dressed up,
a skull with an old hat,
with duck feathers on the back of the neck

Rascal

Versions: #1
Rascal,
I’ve been willing to talk to you
Do you know that Zeca has died?
Due to fights that he has had with the law
 
Rascal,
I know that you don’t care about the fact
Of being a mulatto, capoeira kid
Lost im the world dying of love
 
Rascal,
I’m the one who speaks on behalf of that one
Who bears a standard in the catwalk
And is named after a flower in the slum
 
Rascal,
I just beg you to take care
Things aren’t good for you
This way you will kill Rosinha with pain
 

The Instant

Where will the centuries be, where will the dream
of swords that the Tartars dreamed of,
where the strong walls they leveled,
where the Adam Tree and the other Log?
 
The present is alone. The memory
erects time. Succession and deception
it is the routine of the clock. Year
it is no less vain than vain history.
 
Between dawn and night there is an abyss
of agonies, of lights, of cares

Trace

A tiny ray enters through my window
when the morning is asleep
and it takes me up into infinity
even if my will is shy.
 
It dries the dew up with its hand.
It dries all the dawn's crying up.
It sombrely searches amidst the shadows
and it illuminates my soul with its storm.
 
It's a small love, it doesn't have an owner.
It plays with me, it comes and goes.
It knows that sometimes it takes my sleep away
but that I'm inspired by what it gives me.
 
A trace... a trace of love.
A song from the heart.
A trace... a trace of love.
A song from the heart.

No Longer Anything with You

I knew it was going to hurt me since I let you pass by
but I must confess, it actually didn't hurt that much.
Go deceive someone who doesn't know you.
In short, my experience is that all that money got lost.
 
Such nonsense!
The way things are!
Nothing personal
but I'm not coming back.
 
I no longer suffer nor despair.
I no longer cry nor fall in distress.
Let me be clear for you, my friend,
I no longer want anything with you.
 
I no longer shiver when I see you.
I no longer feel even the slightest desire.
Hey, look kid, I'm telling you.
I no longer want anything with you.
I no longer want anything with you.
I no longer want anything with you.
 
You're sweet and likeable, and even romantic at times.
You've got something that's good for eating and for takeaway.
You showed me all your tricks in your spiderweb
and it's my turn to admit I liked more than one.

You were my misfortune
but we both lost.
There's no doubt about it,
you're losing more than me.
You're not feeling anything.
(You're not feeling anything...)
That's the worst.
(That's the worst...)
That's the worst.

Because the rose is a flower
Rose1 is a color
Rose is a woman's name

Since the first man
Wonderfully stepped on the moon
I felt I had the rights, the principles
And the dignity
To set myself free
 
Then, without prejudices I sing
I sing the fantasy
I sing the love, I sing the joy
I sing the faith, I sing the peace
I sing in the night
Take it easy my brother Charlie
Because I sing even to my beloved
Who is longed for, desired, adored
 
Take it easy, my brother Charlie
Take it easy, my brother of color
 
Take it easy, my brother Charlie
Take it easy, my brother of color
 
Charlie, take it easy my boy
Take it easy my friend
See how blue is the sky
See how green is the sea
See what a beautiful sun, Charlie
 
Take it easy my boy
Take it easy my friend

Dream of love

It's only for your love
that I keep moving forward,
when my hearts pains me.
 
You will always be a velvet dream,
a glimmer of sunshine that enveloped me in its light,
a light that gave a soft flow to my love.
 
Night and day my heart
asks for you, I swear it

I’m Neither From Here… Nor From There

I like the sun, Alicia and the doves,
A good cigar and the ladies of easy virtue,
Jumping over walls, opening windows
And, when I’m crying, a woman…
 
I like wine, as well as flowers,
And rabbits, but not tractors,
The homemade bread, Dolores’ voice
And the sea wetting my feet.
 
I’m neither from here nor from there,
I have no age, no future
And being happy is my identity colour.
 
I like always lying down on the sand,
Going after Manuela with my nag,
And all the time watching the stars
With Maria, in the wheat fields.
 
I’m neither from here nor from there,
I have no age, no future
And being happy is my identity colour.
 

Being with You

Being with you
is like touching the sky with my hands,
like the sun on the first day of summer,
like in a tale, being with you.
 
Being with you,
keeping your secrets awake one by one,
figuring out everything you carry inside.
I leave everything for being with you for one moment.
 
I feel like your company
is the best gift that life gave me.
The strength that pushes me to keep going.
Of everything I have, it is the most important thing.
 
Being with you is like a dream
from which I don't want to wake up
if I open my eyes and you're not there.
Living with you is my wish.
It is everything I want to do
because by your side I can be
only myself.
(Only myself...)
Only myself.
(Only and just myself...)
 
Being with you
is making every day different.
There is always something that manages to surprise me.
It is like a game that amuses me, being with you.
 
I feel like your company

Forever.
Girl, forever, to be with you.

Just Around the Corner

If I tell you that not everything looks
the way you're looking at it, the way you're looking at it.
Sadness goes with solitude.
Don't give it the air you breathe.
The colours of life
remind you that this tale isn't over.
 
And just around the corner,
you forget your sorrows
and you find a flower
on the road you're walking on.
And there are stars and there are songs,
new dreams and hopes.
Don't give up 'cause your hands
will receive what you imagine.
Just around the corner
we still have some steps to go up left.
Your smile is there, let it come.
Your smile is just around the corner.
 
It was your turn to suffer, it was your turn to cry.
I know that hurts, I know that hurts.
We're going to get out of the darkness.
You know nobody dies out of love.
I already swam through that river
and even though I miss what I lost, I'm telling you
 
That just around the corner,
you forget your sorrows
and you find a flower
on the road you're walking on.
And there are stars and there are songs,
new dreams and hopes.
Don't give up 'cause your hands
will receive what you imagine.
Just around the corner
we still have some steps to go up left.
Your smile is there, let it come.
Your smile is just around the corner.
 
Just around the corner,
the new colours of a new life.
Just around the corner,
you can find whatever you imagine.
Just around the corner,
a new life, new joys.
Just around the corner,
you can find whatever you imagine.
 

On the Wet Floor

If I were to be born again, I would fall again
in the same mistakes, I would learn again.
If I lived again and started over again,
I would again know where my place is.
 
If I discovered again
the abyss inside you,
I would let myself fall again.
 
If I could play with time and make
this night last forever.
If I could find a way to make
your life change colours.
 
If I wanted to forget your way of being,
I wouldn't be able, it's been engraved on my skin.
If I wanted to find better company,
I wouldn't be able to find it not even up in Heaven with God.
 
Because Heaven is your eyes.
I only want to look at them
now that I'm able to see them.
 
If I could play with time and make
this night last forever.
If I could find a way to make
your life change colours.
 
And to be born again, and to laugh again.
And to feel vertigo and let myself fall.
Now you're the sky that projects the light
that illuminates my steps on the wet floor.
 
And to be born again, and to laugh again.
And to feel vertigo and let myself fall.
Now you're the sky that projects the light
that illuminates my steps on the wet floor.
 

If I Don't Have Your Heart Anymore

I woke up
and what a disappointment
I stumbled upon.
I learned
that falsity is not an art,
it is a necessity.
 
But if I see him again downtown,
at the gym or on the train, I'll let him know.
'Cause there's no point in throwing away all we lived because,
my boy, listen well!
 
And what do I want the newest Ferrari for?
And what do I want to be fifteen again for?
And what do I want to stick myself to the radio for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
And what do I want this silver moon for?
And what do I want to win this battle for?
And what do I want to dream with my Havana for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, no no no, I don't have, oh no.
 
Swear to me
that it is not only mere fascination,
that which can't be seen.
I discovered
stubbornness by chance,
by curiosity.
 
But if I see him again downtown,
at the market or on the train, I'll let him know.
'Cause there's no point in throwing away all we lived because,
my boy, listen well!
 
And what do I want the newest Ferrari for?
And what do I want to be fifteen again for?
And what do I want to stick myself to the radio for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
And what do I want this silver moon for?
And what do I want to win this battle for?
And what do I want to dream with my Havana for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, no no no, I don't have, oh no.
 
And what do I want the newest Ferrari for?
And what do I want to be fifteen again for?
And what's the use of my first million bucks
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
And what do I want this silver moon for?
And what do I want to win this battle for?
And what do I want to dream with my Havana for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, no no no, I don't have, oh no.
 
And what do I want Venice for, my love,
if I don't have your heart anymore?
And what do I want to lose myself in your laughter for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
And what do I want millions of pesos for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
And what do I want to die over that for
if I don't have your heart anymore?
 
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, I don't have.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
I don't have, no no no, I don't have, oh no.
If I don't have your heart anymore.
