Afternoon
Carla Bruni

When I am old, and comforted,

And done with this desire,

With memory to share my bed

And peace to share my fire,

I'll comb my hair in scalloped bands

Beneath my laundered cap,

And watch my cool and fragile hands

Lie light upon my lap.

And I will have a sprigged gown

With lace to kiss my throat;

I'll draw my curtain to the town,

And hum a purring note.

And I'll forget the way of tears,

And rock, and stir my tea.

But oh, I wish those blessed years

Were further than they be!

some lonely road

By Madeleine Peyroux

Look down, look down

That lonesome road

Before you travel on

Look up, look up

And seek your maker

Before Gabriel blows his horn

I'm weary of toting, such a heavy load

Trudging down, that lonesome road

Look down, look down

That lonesome road

Before you travel on

I'm weary of toting, such a heavy load

Trudging down, that lonesome road

Look down, look down

That lonesome road

Before you travel on

Before you travel on

ONE ART
Elizabeth Bishop


The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
Lose something every day.
Accept the flusterof lost door keys,
the hour badly spent.

The art of losing isn't hard to master.

Then practice losing farther, losing faster:
places, and names, and where it was you meantto travel.
None of these will bring disaster.
I lost my mother's watch.
And look! my last, ornext-to-last, of three loved houses went.

The art of losing isn't hard to master.

I lost two cities, lovely ones.
And, vaster,some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.
---Even losing you (the joking voice, a gestureI love) I shan't have lied.

It's evident the art of losing's not too hard to master

though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.

Nouvelle Vague - Heart of Glass

Blondie

Once I had a love and it was a gas

Soon turned out had a heart of glass

Seemed like the real thing, only to find

Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was divine

Soon found out I was losing my mind

It seemed like the real thing byt

I was so blind

Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

In between

What I find is pleasing and I'm feelin fine

Love is so confusing there's no peace of mind

If I fear I'm losing you it's just no good

You teasing like you do

Once I had a love and it was a gas

Soon turned out had a heart of glass

Seemed like the real thing, only to find

Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was divine

Soon found oyt I was losing my mind

It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind

Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Lost inside

Adorable ilusion and I cannot hide

I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside

We could made it cruising, yeah

It's just no good

You teasing like you do

Love Will Tear Us Apart

Joy Division
by Nouvelle Vague

When routine bites hard

And ambitions are low

And resentment rides high

But emotions won't grow

And we're changing our ways,

Taking different roads

Then love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold?

You've turned away on

Your side

Is my timing tha flawed?

Our respect runs so dry

Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives

But love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

You cry out in you sleep, all my failings exposed

And there's tast in my mouth as desperation takes hold

Just that something so good just can't function no more

But love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

Love, love will tear us apart again

"I asked the boy for a few kind words, He gave me a novel instead-

But I'm all right, I'm all right I've been lonely before"

The wolf is in the roof
I wait to hear it's howl
I screamed once
Now I'm all right

I see myself light
I fell once like a panther
I roared twice
Now I'm all right

The lion rugged speaks
Its fire is on sportsman hands
In the field
No shadows alloweds

All right, I'm all right
Hopeless and rudeness
But I'm still speaking
And singing my old songs

The licking lioness is getting better
All right, It's okay
I've been exessively soft
and draw to my face picture
a slicked-down hair frame

Your words make me die. I can see how beautiful life is. And born again. In another place. Rain has gone. Is. Really is. The truth I'm carring inside me is this now. Having kittens, always. I'm still someone who loves. Young. Like my words. Like myself.

Spring comes. By the air. I smell it

fresh perfum. Now it's my time do receive. And at the same time, remember me. Time at time. My kind voice didn't change. And repete and repete and repete. Again and again. I'll have good moments in my live, everyday of my live. My short life. And they'll be all mine.

I was so fool in apologize. You helped me to build the new Universe. I keep on with poetry, fighting very hard, day by day. Night by night.

The place from I write is calm and simpathy. Much more than that. It be full of Love. But also quiet. A little bit noise. It's a place having kittens. Exciting good ideas and anger controled. This place plays with the danger, with the "problems", with the difficults. Laugh and smile deeply. It's a commom place. A place who borns to joy and pleasure. And new warm feelings. It's a funny great tender house. It's walls comes marked with a stamp saying "Kind". "Gentle" and "almsgiving". It's espace is getting bigger and bigger nights after nights, after morning days.

This country is near somewhere faraway from cold places. Like South Italy neibourhood. And France summer, with people painting with sun collor their naked bodies in "la plage" and "praças". This country is fair. Honesty and there, people work hard. With their plenty heads and soul. Really give their best. And they're always, all the time, having kittens.
