Gennaio 2016 – Tiromancino

C’erano le nuvole fisse nel mio cieloMi dimenticavo spesso anche chi eroNon avevo amici a cui aggrapparmiDentro stanze vuote parlavo coi fantasmiL’ansia mi svegliava ogni mezz’oraEra fil di ferro dentro la mia golaMi sentivo solo e odiavo la mia voceFinché si è accesa quella luce
 
Eri lì, gennaio del 2016Tu mi hai portato lei che è ancora quiChi se li scorda più quei giorni
 
Uscivamo insieme sera dopo seraAd ogni parola cadeva una barrieraMa non era facile nemmeno la sua vitaE faticava per trovare una sua stradaAnche lei veniva da una storia complicataSenza più difese, l’anima spezzataIo l’ho vista piangere, ridere e tremareE mi dicevo, “Io la vorrei sposare”
 
Eri lì, gennaio del 2016Tu mi hai portato lei che è ancora quiChi se li scorda più quei giorni
 
Ho fatto un sogno e c’era un lungomareIo i capelli bianchi, lei un vestito florealeCi raccontavamo il primo incontro in quel localeIo pensavo, “Con lei è dolce anche invecchiare”
 
Eri lì, gennaio del 2016Il tempo passa e se ne va cosìSe torni ci ritrovi ancora qui
Eri lì, gennaio del 2016Eri lì, gennaio del 2016

Guardare al mondo,

Attraversando gli occhi della gente.

Immergersi oltre le loro maschere,

E’ un viaggio.

E nei miei occhi ho visto passare persone,

Un viaggiatore nella stazione,

Incrociando sguardi,

Ascoltando discorsi sussurrati, segreti, gridati.

Ho visto amanti,

Militari, insegnanti, studenti.

Ho assaporato l’Amore,

L’ho visto fuggire tra le dita mentre lo accarezzavo,

Così come quando si accarezza un fiore,

O un bimbo porta felice a spasso nel vento il suo aquilone.

Ho vissuto il buio ,all’improvviso,

E tra la paura,

Rialzandomi sono arrivato di nuovo alla luce.

Nothin’ – Guns N’ Roses

There’s nothing I could seeThat would mean more to meThan what you are to meOh, my love
 
There’s nothing I can seeThat would mean more to meThan what you are to meOh, my love
 
On a stormy seaOf implicationsYour love has given meA new way
 
There’s nothing I can seeThat could mean more to meThan what you are to meOh, my love
 
There’s nothing I can seeThat could mean more to meThan what you are to meOh, my love
 
On a restless seaOf vindicationYour love has given meA new way to redeem myselfWhen it feels like no one elseWould ever care to save me
 
There’s nothing I could seeThat would mean more to meThan what you are to meOh, my love
 
On an endless seaOf complicationsYour love has offered meA new way
 
Without your love, I’d never make itWithout your love, I’m so aloneWithout your love, I’d never make itWithout your love, I’d never make this back alone

Trascorre la vita,

Giorni e notti si rincorrono,

S’accorciano i giorni,

S’accorcia il tempo.

E con uno spago legato alle nostre radici,

Girovaghiamo per le strade,

Un girotondo intorno al mondo.

E negli incontri,

Troviamo anime empatiche,

Riempiono i nostri vuoti.

E la fortuna più grande,

Arriva quando per caso,

Un’Anima gentile,

Trova in noi quel vuoto infinito,

Cosmico,

Quello spazio che Lei soltanto,

Riempie d’Amore.

Heaven – Bryan Adams

Oh, thinkin’ about our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin’ can take you away from me
We’ve been down that road before
But that’s over now
You keep me comin’ back for more

Baby, you’re all that I want
When you’re lyin’ here in my arms
I’m findin’ it hard to believe
We’re in Heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn’t too hard to see
We’re in Heaven

Oh, once in your life, you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you’re feelin’ down
Yeah, nothin’ could change what you mean to me
Oh, there’s lots that I could say
But just hold me now
‘Cause our love will light the way

When you’re lyin’ here in my arms
I’m finding it hard to believe
We’re in Heaven
Yeah, love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn’t too hard to see
We’re in Heaven, yeah

I’ve been waitin’ for so long
For somethin’ to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin’ true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I’ll be standin’ there by you, oh

And baby, you’re all that I want
When you’re lyin’ here in my arms
I’m findin’ it hard to believe
We’re in Heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
Isn’t too hard to see
We’re in Heaven, Heaven
Woah-oh-oh

You’re all that I want
You’re all that I need

White Room – Cream

In a white room with black curtains in the stationBlack roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlingsSilver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyesDawn light smiles on you leaving, my contentment
 
I’ll wait in this place, where the sun never shinesWait in this place, where the shadows run from themselves
 
You said no strings could secure you at the stationPlatform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windowsI walked into, such a sad time, at the stationAs I walked out, felt my own need, just beginning
 
I’ll wait in the queue when the trains come backLie with you where the shadows run from themselves
 
At the party, she was kindness in the hard crowdConsolation for the old wound now forgottenYellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyesNow gets morning, goodbye windows, tired starlings
 
I’ll sleep in this place with the lonely crowdLie in the dark, where the shadows run from themselves

Piove,

La terra nuda accoglie il cielo,

L’attimo della fusione,

Un abbraccio gelido,

Un addio fino al prossimo incontro.

E nel suono della pioggia,

Ricordi i baci d’addio,

E i baci dei ritorni.

Prototype – R. Glasper feat Norah Jones

I hope that you’re the one
If not, you are the prototype
We’ll tiptoe towards the sun
And do things I know you like

I think I’m in love again
I think I’m in love again

Today must be my lucky day
Baby, you are the prototype
Might do something out of the ordinary like catch a matinee
Oh, you are the prototype

Oh, I think I’m in love again
I think I’m in love again

If we happen to part
Lord knows I don’t want that
But we can’t be mad at God
We’re meant to be for a reason

You might also like

I think I’m on the right track, I’m in love again
I think I’m in love again
Ooh, ooh

Pensieri che vagano,

Barche tra le tempestose onde,

Sbalzate dal cuore alla mente,

Dai ricordi ai desideri e sogni,

Quando ti tuffi nel mar del caffè nero.

E riaffiorano attimi dimenticati,

Visi sbiaditi, parole sussurrate.

Ti accorgi conto che la vita è un alito di vento,

Si gonfiano le vele dell’Anima,

E senza neanche rendercene conto,

Partiamo per lunghi viaggi,

Per poi ritornare a dove era casa.

Hypnotized – Fleetwood Mac

It’s the same kind of storyThat seems to come down from long agoTwo friends having coffee togetherWhen something flies by their windowIt might be out on that lawnWhich is wide, at least half of a playing fieldBecause there’s no explaining what your imaginationCan make you see and feel
 
Seems like a dreamThey got me hypnotized
 
Now it’s not a meaningless questionTo ask if they’ve been and goneI remember a talk about North CarolinaAnd a strange, strange pondYou see the sides were like glassIn the thick of a forest without a roadAnd if any man’s hand ever made that landThen I think it would’ve showed
 
That’s why it seems like a dreamGot me hypnotizedAnd I know that’s right
 
Seems like a dreamThey got me hypnotized
 
They say there’s a place down in MexicoWhere a man can fly over mountains and hillsAnd he don’t need an airplane or some kind of engineAnd he never willNow you know it’s a meaningless questionTo ask if those stories are right‘Cause what matters most is the feelingYou get when you’re hypnotized
 
Seems like a dreamThey got me hypnotizedSeems like a dreamThey got me hypnotizedSeems like a dreamThey got me hypnotizedGot me hypnotized
