Alguien


 


(*) Jorge Luis Borges 


Un hombre trabajado por el tiempo, 

un hombre que ni siquiera espera la muerte 

(las pruebas de la muerte son estadísticas 

y nadie hay que no corra el albur 

de ser el primer inmortal), 

un hombre que ha aprendido a agradecer 

las modestas limosnas de los días: 

el sueño, la rutina, el sabor del agua, 

una no sospechada etimología, 

un verso latino o sajón, 

la memoria de una mujer que lo ha abandonado 

hace ya tantos años 

que hoy puede recordarla sin amargura, 

un hombre que no ignora que el presente 

ya es el porvenir y el olvido, 

un hombre que ha sido desleal 

y con el que fueron desleales, 

puede sentir de pronto, al cruzar la calle, 

una misteriosa felicidad 

que no viene del lado de la esperanza 

sino de una antigua inocencia, 

de su propia raíz o de un dios disperso. 

Sabe que no debe mirarla de cerca, 

porque hay razones más terribles que tigres 

que le demostrarán su obligación 

de ser un desdichado, 

pero humildemente recibe 

esa felicidad, esa ráfaga. 

Quizá en la muerte para siempre seremos,
 
cuando el polvo sea polvo, 

esa indescifrable raíz, 

de la cual para siempre crecerá, 

ecuánime o atroz, 

nuestro solitario cielo o infierno.

Lady Rain

 



(*) Roger Fakhr
Hear the story of the lady rainIt happened in the cloudy, early times of mayThe sunshine who was going down his waySaw the lady cry, cold, talking to her pain
Lady rain, lady rainWon't you dry up your eyes?Tell me, what's the reason for the useless cry?Lady rain, lady rainWon't you show me your smile?I'm gonna tell you how to fight the saddest times
"Guiding sunray, " said the lady, "I feel sad" (ooh)"The winter took away all of the strength I hadI'm going far beyond the highest hill"No one can ever know how great a pain I feel"
Lady rain, lady rainWon't you dry up your eyes?I'm gonna give your heart a home deep in my soulLady rain, lady rainWon't you show me your smile?I'll never let you walk along the way alone
Hear the story of the lady rainIt ended 'bout the middle of the month of mayThe sunshine, his big love couldn't refrainHe went too near and lady rain soon dried away
Lady rain, lady rainDa-doo-da, doo-da-doo-daDa-doo-da, dum-da-doo-da, dum-da-doo-da

Covered in you




 


(*)Jagger / Richards / Clifford
Covered in you, covered in youComing a bit unscrewedCovered in you, covered in youFeeling a bit unglued
I need a place to calm me downBut this town is so noisyI need to drown my troubles somewhereYou're my loveYou're the coat I can't take offI'm aware of your affairsAnd your perfume I can't shake offI can never break offThe memory that's following me like a shadowI'm always dreaming of your skin so softAnd ya hit me in the chest with your arrowIn my marrowYou're painted on my body all silver and goldAnd purple and pink and your brain stone coldThis never gets old
Covered in you, covered in youComing a bit unscrewedCovered in you, covered in youFeeling a bit ungluedWhat can I do, what can I doI'm coming a bit unglued
Listen, I wake up sick and tired of all these autocratsYou know they seem to be breeding like a swarm of dirty ratsWith their missiles on parade and they're wreathed in gold brocadeOpposition plays charades, they must always be obeyedYou know I'm gonna to wait 'til the panic passesWait 'til you see the whites of their assesMe and you were separated like KoreaThere's so many knots we can't undo, we can't untieYou're always trying to give me bad reviews
Covered in you, covered in youComing a bit unscrewedCovered in you, covered in youFeeling a bit ungluedSmothered in blue, smothered in blueComing a bit unscrewedCovered in you, covered in youFeeling a bit abused
You were born on my doorstep, that's no coincidenceIt all makes perfect sense, you know it's true'Cause I'm covered in, you upset my equilibriumMake me take way too much lithiumSo goodbye lover, wish me luckI'm gonna vanish down the highway in my truck'Cause I couldn't really give a monkey's
Covered in you, covered in youComing a bit unscrewedCovered in you, covered in youFeeling a bit abusedSmothered in blue, smothered in blueFeeling a bit unglued
You were born on my doorstep, that's no coincidenceIt all makes perfect sense, you know it's trueCovered in you'Cause I'm covered in you
What can I doCovered in you, bent out of skewComing a bit ungluedSmothered in blue, broke the taboosComing a bit unscrewed

Hey Jude

 



(*) Lennon & McCartney


Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And anytime you feel the pain
Hey, Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

For well you know that it's a fool
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Hey, Jude, don't let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in
Hey, Jude, begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that is just you?
Hey, Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
(Better, better, better, better, better, oh, yeah)

Na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, hey, Jude
Na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, hey, Jude
Na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, hey, Jude

Always remembers us this way

 



(*) Lindsey - Gaga - McKenna & Hemby

That Arizona sky
Burnin' in your eyes
You look at me and, babe, I wanna catch on fire
It's buried in my soul
Like California gold
You found the light in me that I couldn't find

So when I'm all choked up but I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye, baby, it hurts
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way

Lovers in the night
Poets tryin' to write
We don't know how to rhyme but, damn, we try
But all I really know
You're where I wanna go
The part of me that's you will never die

So when I'm all choked up and I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye, baby, it hurts
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way

Oh, yeah
I don't wanna be just a memory, baby, yeah

Oh, oh, oh

So when I'm all choked up and I can't find the words
Every time we say goodbye, baby, it hurts
When the sun goes down
And the band won't play
I'll always remember us this way
Way, yeah

When you look at me
And the whole world fades
I'll always remember us this way

License to kill

 



(*) Walden, Cohen & Afanasieff


Ooooh 
Oh-hooo 
I feel, I've got to hold on to your love 
Oooh. 

Hey baby, thought you were the one who tried to run away. 
Ohh, baby, wasn't I the one who made you want to you? 
Please don't bet that you'll ever escape me 
Once I get my sights on you. 

Got a license to kill to kill
And you know I'm going straight for your heart. 
Got a license to kill
Got a license to kill to kill
Anyone who tries to tear us apart. 
Got a license to kill

Hey baby, think you need a friend to stand here by your side
Yes you do your side
Ohh, baby, now you can depend on me to make things right (things right)

Got a license to kill to kill
And you know I'm going straight for your heart.

Got a license to kill to kill
Anyone who tries to tear us apart.

Say that somebody tries to make a move on you 
In the blink of an eye, I will be there too 
And they better know why I'm gonna make them 'em pay 
Till their dying day 
Till their dying day 
Till their dying day 

Got a license to kill to kill
And you know I'm going straight for your heart. 
Got a license to kill

Georgy porgy


 


It's not your situationI just need contemplation over youI'm not so systematicIt's just that I'm an addict for your love

Invisible light


 


(*) Babydaddy, Jake Shears, Ana Matronic


At the doors of BabylonYou are my ZionA pacing tigerA keeper's cageInvisible lightShoots from your eyesA sign I can seeFrom my highlights
Another castle crumblesAnother monkey fallsJust open up your joyAnd let the sailors climb the wallsI thought I saw you laughing10 feet in the airIt doesn't matter if they touchYou're where they cut youCan you give me
An invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightAn invisible light, I wantAn invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightTo keep me alive, ohh
Look at all the tensionI can feel it with the fingersIn my mind
A opiate utopiaGets hotter by the hourI found you a flowerIn a fieldFrom my inventionAmong the tiredAmong the poorAmong the brokenThe huddled massesIt's your time
You answer to a new nameThat changes all the timeI'll call you anything you wantIf I can say it's mineThe story is never-endingOur footprint's been erasedBut here you are, I kiss your feelingsSee your mouth or is it really
An invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightAn invisible light, I wantAn invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightTo keep me alive, ohh
Something reallyGets dimensionCan't you feel itBend your sense of time?
BabylonWhere bricks of mortarDiamonds, towerSailors lust and swaggerBlazing in woman's beamWhose lazer gaze penetrates thisSparkling theater of excess and strobed lightsPainted whoresSexual gladiatorsFiercely old party childrenAll wake from their slumber to debut the bacchanalCome to the lightInto the lightThe invisible light
An invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightAn invisible light, I wantAn invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightTo keep me alive, ohhAn invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightAn invisible light, I wantAn invisible lightAn invisible light, oh hoAn invisible lightTo keep me alive, ohh

Luz




(*) Martinez/de la Presa/Martinez de la Presa

El tiempo enseña nuestro andar para el que quiera escucharPara quien no deja atrás lo que soñabaPueden matarte por la piel, expulsarte por la feArrancarte de la tierra que abrazabas
Muéstrame tu luz, yo te mostraré mi luzNo ha sido en vano imaginar que el día llegabaEl tiempo enseña nuestro andar y de tanto caminarMe olvidaba de pensar que me esperabas
Oh, tiempo de aguantarOy-oy-oy-oy-ohOh, tiempo de aguantarOy-oy-oy-oy-oh
Pueden matar a la voz, pueden quemar tu naciónPueden esconder lo que será memoriaPueden llevarte de los pies, pueden comprar tu vejezY lotear y subastar toda tu historia
Muéstrame tu luz, yo te mostraré mi luzNo ha sido en vano imaginar un día de gloriaEl tiempo enseña nuestro andar, y aquel que quiera saberSabrá que se elige ser digno o escoria
Oh, tiempo de aguantarOy-oy-oy-oy-oyOh, tiempo de aguantarOy-oy-oy-oe-oh
Los hombres duermen hoyUn sueño de placerY no saben dóndeDespertarán mañana
Muéstrame tu luz, yo te mostraré mi luzNo ha sido en vano imaginar que el día llegaba
Oh, tiempo de aguantarOy-oy-oy-oy-ohOh, tiempo de aguantarUh-uh-uh-uh-uh
El tiempo enseña nuestro andarPara el que quiera escucharPara quien no deja atrás lo que soñaba
