Dentro le canzoni: quella frase che sento mia adesso

Don't Know How To Love Him

I don't know how to love him.
What to do, how to move him.
I've been changed, yes really changed.
In these past few days, when I've seen myself,
I seem like someone else.
I don't know how to take this.
I don't see why he moves me.
He's a man. He's just a man.
And I've had so many men before,
In very many ways,
He's just one more.
Should I bring him down?
Should I scream and shout?
Should I speak of love,
Let my feelings out?
I never thought I'd come to this.
What's it all about?
Don't you think it's rather funny,
I should be in this position.
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool,
Running every show.
He scares me so.
I never thought I'd come to this.
What's it all about?
Yet, if he said he loved me,
I'd be lost. I'd be frightened.
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope.
I'd turn my head. I'd back away.
I wouldn't want to know.
He scares me so.
I want him so.
I love him so.

Seven nation army - White stripes

"I'm gonna fight 'em all
A nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back

And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone

Don't want to hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell

And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that aint what you want to hear
But thats what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home

PRAY -TAKE THAT

When the time gets near for me to show my love
The longer I stayed away for hiding from a word
I need to hear now don't think I'll hear it again
But the nights were always warm with you
holding you right by my side,
But the morning always comes too soon
Before I even close my eyes

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday
All I do each night is think of all the times
I close the door to keep my love within

If you can't forgive the past I'll understand that
Can't understand why I did this to you
And all of the days and the nights ok I'll regret it
I never showed you my love
But the nights were always warm with you
Holding you right by my side
But the morning always cmes too soon
Before I even close my eyes

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday
All I do each night is think of all the times
I close the door to keep my love within

Surey we must be in sight of the dream we long to live
If you stop and close your eyes you'll picture me inside
I'm so cold and all alone, straight on back to me

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday
All I do each night is think of all the times
I close the door to keep my love within

U2 - October

October
And the trees are stripped bare
Of all they wear
What do I care
October
And kingdoms rise
And kingdoms fall
But you go on

Marillion - The Party

anche se preferisco Fish...

She bought a bottle of cider
From the shop on the corner
They didn't stop her
Thought she was older

She took a bus ride
To a name and a number
A house full of music
And a hatful of wonder

And some of the people
That she thought that she knew
Were never like this
When she saw them at school
She's never been anywhere like this before
Everybody's so out of control

She was in a back room
Full of strange aromas
And noises and candles
That was where he found her

He took her to a garden
Full of rain and silence
And she could smell the soil and the trees
And see the succulent light from the little fires in his eyes
Pulling shapes out of the night
She was enchanted

Then it's twelve o'clock
And the last bus is gone
They're gonna go crazy
When they hear what she's done
And higher is lower
And less is like more
She's never felt anything like this before,

And then it was yesterday
He said, "Oh, by the way"
"Welcome to your first party..."

The Smiths - LAST NIGHT I DREAMT THAT SOMEBODY LOVED ME

Last night I dreamt
that somebody loved me
no hope - but no harm
just another false alarm
Last night I felt
real arms around me
no hope - no harm
just another false alarm
so, tell me how long
before the last one?
and tell me how long
before the right one?
this story is old - I KNOW
but it goes on
this story is old - I KNOW
but it goes on

don't think twice it's all right - Bob Dylan (cantata da Nick Drake)

Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter anyhow
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travelling on
Don't think twice it's all right

Well it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe
Light I've never known
Ain't no use in turning on the light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Wish there was something you could do or say
Something to make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
Don't think twice, it's all right

And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you've never done before
It ain't no use in calling out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
I'm thinking and a wondering, walking down that road
I once loved a woman - A child I'm told
Gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
Don't think twice, it's all right

So long, honey-babe
Where I`m bound, I can`t tell
Goodbye is too good a word babe
I'll just say, "Fare thee well"
I ain't saying you treated me unkind
You could've done better, but I don't mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
Don't think twice, it's all right

Mr Self Destruct - Nine Inch Nails

I am the voice inside your head
and I control you
I am the lover in your bed
and I control you
I am the sex that you provide
and I control you
I am the hate you try to hide
and I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self-destruct
I speak religion's message clear
and I control you
I am denial guilt and fear
and I control you
I am the prayers of the naive
and I control you
I am the lie that you believe
and I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self-destruct
I am the needle in your vein
and I control you
I am the high you can't sustain
and I control you
I am the pusher I'm a whore
and I control you
I am the need you have for more
and I control you
I am the bullet in the gun
and I control you
I am the truth from which you run
and I control you
I am the silencing machine
and I control you
I am the end of all your dreams
and I control you
I take you where you want to go
I give you all you need to know
I drag you down I use you up
Mr. Self-destruct

Dry Land - Marillion...per sognare...


In all the time that I've known you
You've been so edgy and nervous
I never wanted to own you

I was aware of the danger
Of making a bid for your favours
You're such a natural stranger
I made excuses and ran

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island
I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please

In all the time that I've known you
There has been something between us
I don't think it's my imagination

I felt like I couldn't touch you
But I had the feeling you'd love to
Tell me the truth if you could do
I made excuses and ran

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please

Emerald Lies - Marillion

To be the prince of possession in the gallery of contempt
Suffering your indiscreet discretions and you ask me to relent
As you accumulate flirtations with the calculated calmness of the whore
I am the harlequin - diamonded costume dripping shades of green
I am the harlequin - sense strangers violate my sanctuary
Prowl my dreams
Plundering your diaries, I'll steal your thoughts innocence
Ravaging your letters, unearth your plots innocence

To don the robes of Torquemada, resurrect the inquisition
In that tortured subtle manner inflict questions within questions
Looking in shades of green through shades of blue
I trust you trust in me to mistrust you

Through the Silk Cut haze to the smeared mascara
A 40 watt sun on a courtroom drama
And the coffee stains gather till the pale kimono
Set the wedding rings dancing on the cold linoleum

And accusations moths that circle on the light
Char their wings and spiral senseless suicidal flight
You packed your world within a suitcase, hot tears melt this icy palace
Dissolve a crystal swallowed by the night
Looking in shades of green through shades of blue
Looking in shades of green through shades of blue

» Il testamento «
Quando la morte mi chiamerà
forse qualcuno protesterà
dopo aver letto nel testamento
quel che gli lascio in eredità
non maleditemi non serve a niente
tanto all'inferno ci sarò già
ai protettori delle battone
lascio un impiego da ragioniere
perché provetti nel loro mestiere
rendano edotta la popolazione
ad ogni fine di settimana
sopra la rendita di una puttana
ad ogni fine di settimana
sopra la rendita di una puttana
voglio lasciare a Bianca Maria
che se ne frega della decenza
un attestato di benemerenza
che al matrimonio le spiani la via
con tanti auguri per chi c'è caduto
di conservarsi felice e cornuto
con tanti auguri per chi c'è caduto
di conservarsi felice e cornuto
sorella morte lasciami il tempo
di terminare il mio testamento
lasciami il tempo di salutare
di riverire di ringraziare
tutti gli artefici del girotondo
intorno al letto di un moribondo
signor becchino mi ascolti un poco
il suo lavoro a tutti non piace
non lo consideran tanto un bel gioco
coprir di terra chi riposa in pace
ed è per questo che io mi onoro
nel consegnarle la vanga d'oro
ed è per questo che io mi onoro
nel consegnarle la vanga d'oro
per quella candida vecchia contessa
che non si muove più dal mio letto
per estirparmi l'insana promessa
di riservarle i miei numeri al lotto
non vedo l'ora di andar fra i dannati
per rivelarglieli tutti sbagliati
non vedo l'ora di andar fra i dannati
per rivelarglieli tutti sbagliati
quando la morte mi chiederà
di restituirle la libertà
forse una lacrima forse una sola
sulla mia tomba si spenderà
forse un sorriso forse uno solo
dal mio ricordo germoglierà
se dalla carne mia già corrosa
dove il mio cuore ha battuto un tempo
dovesse nascere un giorno una rosa
la do alla donna che mi offrì il suo pianto
per ogni palpito del suo cuore
le rendo un petalo rosso d'amore
per ogni palpito del suo cuore
le rendo un petalo rosso d'amore
a te che fosti la più contesa
la cortigiana che non si dà a tutti
ed ora all'angolo di quella chiesa
offri le immagini ai belli ed ai brutti
lascio le note di questa canzone
canto il dolore della tua illusione
a te che sei costretta per tirare avanti
costretta a vendere Cristo e i santi
quando la morte mi chiamerà
nessuno al mondo si accorgerà
che un uomo è morto senza parlare
senza sapere la verità
che un uomo è morto senza pregare
fuggendo il peso della pietà
cari fratelli dell'altra sponda
cantammo in coro già sulla terra
amammo tutti l'identica donna
partimmo in mille per la stessa guerra
questo ricordo non vi consoli
quando si muore si muore si muore soli
questo ricordo non vi consoli
quando si muore si muore soli

HANGING ONTO YOUR LOVE- TAKE THAT

Can we talk throughout the night, I need you so bad
And when we talk, can you understand my feelings
And understand it hurts to be without you

Never prepared, never know what's going wrong
I'm losing though I always thought this love was so strong
So alone, so lost in the dark
So sad 'cause you will always have a place in my heart

Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love, I need it

Let's take a walk and reminisce about the feelings we used to feel
Just say the word, and I'll be back for good my baby
I'll be back to give you girl what you deserve

Did I say too much, did I try to rule your life
Did the love we had between us miss the road to paradise
Can we try again, can we chance it one more time
Can the ecstasy we found here be reclaimed as yours and mine

Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love, I need it

Did I say too much, did I try to rule your life
Did the love we had between us miss the road to paradise

Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love
Hanging onto your love, I need it

Wishful sinful - The Doors


Wishful crystal
Water covers everything in blue
Coolin' water

Wishful sinful
Our love is beautiful to see
I know where I would like to be
Right back where I came

Wishful, sinful, wicked blue
Water covers you
Wishful, sinful, wicked you
Can't escape the blue

Magic risin'
Sun is shinin' deep beneath the sea
But not enough for you and me and sunshine
Love to hear the wind cry

Wishful sinful
Our love is beautiful to see
I know where I would like to be
Right back where I came

Wishful, sinful, wicked blue
Water covers you
Wishful, sinful, wicked you
Can't escape the blue

Love to hear the wind cry
Love to hear you cry, yeah, yeah

She shines
in a world full of ugliness
she matters
when everything is meaningless

fragile
she doesn't see her beauty
she tries to get away
sometimes
it's just that nothing seems worth saving
I can't watch her slip away

I won't let you fall apart

she reads the minds of all the people as they pass by
hoping can see
if I could fix myself I'd -
but it's too late for me

I won't let you fall apart

we'll find a perfect place to go where we can run and hide
I 'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
... but they keep waiting
... and picking ...

it's someting I have to do
I was there, too
before everything else
I was like you


The fragile-Nine inch nails

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cold breeze?
Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange
a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
year after year,
running over the same old ground. What have we found?
The same old fears,
wish you were here.
