Sex Machine – James Brown

“Sex Machine”

Fellas, I’m ready to get up and do my thing

I wanta get into it, man, you know….

Like a, like a sex machine, man,

Movin’… doin’ it, you know

Can I count it off? (Go ahead)

One, two, three, four!

Get up, get on up

Get up, get on up

Stay on the scene, like a sex machine

Wait a minute!

Shake your arm, then use your form

Stay on the scene like a sex machine

You got to have the feeling sure as you’re born

Get it together right on, right on.

Get up, get on up

Get up, get on up

Stay on the scene, like a sex machine

I said the feeling you got to get

Give me the fever in a cold sweat.

The way i like it is the way it is;

I got mine and don’t worry’ bout his

Get on up and then shake your money maker,

Shake your money maker……..

Piove,

Il silenzio si confonde con i battiti del cuore,

Le nuvole grigie s’appropriano del cielo

Il sole dietro le nubi,

Il viso dietro ai vetri,

Nascondo lo sguardo dal freddo

Mentre nei miei occhi umidi resta la speranza,

La voglia di vita.

L‘estate s’avvicina,

lo si sente nell’aria,

Nei profumi del mattimo,

Si nasconde tra le albe,

Fa capolino nei tramonti,

Sempre più accesi nelle tinte di rosso.

La si vede nascosta tra i campi,

Che diventano dorati,

E anche le tue labbra, quando si destano al mattino,

Son luccicanti,

Come un sole che si specchia sul mare,

Come l’Amore che si specchia nel Cuore.

Time of the Season – The Zombies

“Time of the Season”

It’s the time of the season
When love runs high
And this time, give it to me easy
And let me try with pleasured hands
To take you in the sun to (promised lands)
To show you every one
It’s the time of the season for loving
What’s your name?
Who’s your daddy?
(He rich) Is he rich like me?
Has he taken, any time (any time)
(To show) to show you what you need to live
Tell it to me slowly (tell me what)
I really want to know
It’s the time of the season for loving
What’s your name?
Who’s your daddy?
(He rich) Is he rich like me?
Has he taken, any time (any time)
(To show) to show you what you need to live
Tell it to me slowly (tell me what)
I really want to know
It’s the time of the season for loving

L‘odore dei primi pomeriggi assolati

Dopo le piogge

Prima che sia estate.

È un viaggio tra i ricordi

E di nuove speranze nella valigia del cuore.

L’odore dell’erba appena bagnata

Sotto al sole caldo

Che annuncia una nuova estate

Una nuova stagione

Per l’Amore.

Didn’t I – OneRepublic

“Didn’t I”

Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we fly?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
But didn’t we, didn’t we say goodbye?
Swear that I saw your face
At a coffee shop on 8th
Or maybe it was in my mind
And I swear that I heard your laugh
From a person that walked past me
At a party the other night
Never thought we’d ever have to go without
Take you over anybody else, hands down
We’re the type of melody that don’t fade out
Don’t fade out, can’t fade out
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we fly?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
But didn’t we, didn’t we say goodbye?
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we try?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
Tell me why good things have to die
Do you remember all those plans
That we made after too many drinks
In the kitchen of your brother’s apartment?
When life was like a wishin’ well
4 A.M. and raisin’ hell
Damn, I knew you oh so well
Never thought we’d ever have to go without
Take you over anybody else, hands down
We’re the type of melody that don’t fade out
Don’t fade out, can’t fade out
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we fly?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
But didn’t we, didn’t we say goodbye?
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we try?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
Tell me why good things have to die
We had our moments, didn’t we? (Oh)
So much that we will never be (oh)
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we fly?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
But didn’t we, didn’t we say goodbye?
Didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I love you?
Didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we try?
Know that I, know that I still care for you
Tell me why good things have to die (die)

Mi mancava scrivere

Era come vivere dentro una stanza buia,

Ero cieco, non vedente,

Ma i miei occhi erano spalancati sulla Vita,

ùA guardare come dietro ad una vetrina,

E non c’erano dolci o donne di cui parlare o mangiarsi i desideri.

Volevo scrivere,

Volevo correre verso il mare,

Voltare le spalle agli inutili dissapori,

Volevo scrivere e sentirmi la vita addosso,

La brezza del vento,

Il sapore del  mare sulle cicatrici del cuore,

E un bacio sulle labbra.

L’essenziale – Marco Mengoni

“L’Essenziale”

Sostengono gli eroi
“Se il gioco si fa duro, è da giocare”
Beati loro poi
Se scambiano le offese con il bene
Succede anche a noi
Di far la guerra e ambire poi alla pace
E nel silenzio mio
Annullo ogni tuo singolo dolore
Per apprezzare quello che
Non ho saputo scegliere
E mentre il mondo cade a pezzi
Io compongo nuovi spazi e desideri che
Appartengono anche a te
Che da sempre sei per me l’essenziale
Non accetterò
Un altro errore di valutazione
L’amore è in grado di
Celarsi dietro amabili parole
Che ho pronunciato prima che
Fossero vuote e stupide
Mentre il mondo cade a pezzi
Io compongo nuovi spazi e desideri che
Appartengono anche a te
Mentre il mondo cade a pezzi
Mi allontano dagli eccessi e dalle cattive abitudini
Tornerò all’origine
E torno a te, che sei per me l’essenziale
L’amore non segue le logiche
Ti toglie il respiro e la sete
Mentre il mondo cade a pezzi
Io compongo nuovi spazi e desideri che
Appartengono anche a te
Mentre il mondo cade a pezzi
Mi allontano dagli eccessi e dalle cattive abitudini
Tornerò all’origine
E torno a te, che sei per me l’essenziale
