It was at night and with your blue jeans,
The dancing floor and you and her,
Your best friend told you: this is the day,
What a lips, what a girl.
It was your T-shirt and your dark shades,
It was the way to swing your back,
A drunken Cupid with stray arrows,
It was absurdities of life.
The fact is that three hours later
You both were fucking in your car,
The radio played a song of Elvis,
You talked about the city lights.
You saw the sun from the hill
When it was waking up
You had your hand on her breasts,
She sighted and smiled,
She required your lips
And you looked for her mouth
And the penetration was
Totally unavoidable,
Absurdities of life,
And the belt against the glass,
Click clack click clack
Click clack click clack
Click clack click clack
Click clack click clack.
You came faster than a pistol,
And felt so weak after the fight
She felt the need to caress your face,
She was so sweet, you don’t know why.
At your feet a bottle of gin
on the creased panties, began to spill ,
You didn’t notice, you were acting
Repeating one more time the scene.
At the hill were brakes are snarling,
At the hill, where the night ends right
All the young boys and the young girls
Synchronized with the sound.
You saw, so white was the moon,
The other cars went away,
Remember it all had begun
Yesterday.
You looked at her with scorn,
As she was a kind of sin,
You felt her young heart under her skin
Beating really hard,
You felt so sexy then
‘Cause she needed you again.
Somewhere along the battle
You dropped the condom in the car
Ignoring its quite flammable
Specially in presence of gin.
You felt so tired, you needed a cigar,
She kindly lit for you a match
But it slipped from her fingers
And the car became a ball of fire.
And from the city your friends
Were looking at the hill,
“I would have never said
she’d be such a hot girl”
And when they tried to explain
what had happened in the car
They all agreed that it
Had been only one of the
Absurdities of life,
That it had been one of the
Absurdities of life,
One of the, one of the
Absurdities of life….
With care, I’ll arrange your book,
Hiding it among the forgotten things,
I’ll say goodbye to your smile
And I’ll get into the mist,
And as I leave the shore
I’ll see there my heart’s grave
And the sand that on it you throw.
Old girl, I know the time is still to come,
But let me already tell you
The way I think things will go,
You’ll cry when someone kisses your tits
And I won’t come with the other ones,
And until these days fade
I’ll be the saddest beast
That has ever been free.
I guess in parties of two guests
You will appear with your green dress
To grieve my drunkenness,
I am sure and I am sad,
I am waving at your smile
And I’ll spend several years
I’ll spend several years
Until I turn my back at last.
Life is an assortment of doubts, to me.
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Life is a weird maze, to me.
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Am I the someone that she’s dreaming of?
Here I am again, it might seem strange
but when I phoned you yesterday I wasn’t as far as I said.
And there is no distance, there is no time,
this tie is holding us really tight, we’ll always be lovers.
This is the same shadow, the same room,
the old process the same perfume, nothing new but it’s not sad.
It’s our secret twilight here, again,
all our confidence, our trust, this is the habit that I love.
All this evenings I’ve been watching out
For the little lights of the land
knowing that you were somewhere
knowing that you were outside
and nothing, nothing was right.
When a love lives within you
it can’t be denied or refused, it’s just a lie of our pride.
Your face is still the face I love to see,
your side the place I want to be, your words the trues I’ll suppose.
And now I know I’m not a perfect man,
I’m not as gentle as I was,
A kind of sadness soaked my ship,
but there is one thing over all,
the only thing I ready for,
the only thing I’m sure about
is that I’d give my life for yours.
I’m not a playing card,
Not a chip, not a piece,
I’m out of the game board,
‘though I’ve acted as an eventual square.
I don’t take part in discoveries,
I don’t look for, I wait and find,
I don’t fill in blanks with paintings.
To everyone that says: it’s him, it’s her,
To everyone that rolls the dice,
Sorry, I don’t belong this table,
I tied myself to a chain I adore,
And with strength I hurt myself
Stretching the rope around my neck
Dying, without air, somehow I enjoy.
Deep need that few ones know,
Calm only comes after sincere embraces
And perishable winnings that last forever
In the darkness of our chamber.
On my knees I embrace your legs
Crying for the happiness I had lost,
Incomprehensible ashes burn again
Giving name to the beauty.
I get lost and you find me,
You get lost and I find you,
Isn’t this one, my love,
Our favorite game?
Well the road is in front of me, tonight,
And the breeze is so warm, tonight,
And your eyes are so green, so green, tonight,
And your words are so kind, so kind, tonight.
That now, I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
Well, the snow is behind the door, tonight,
And we’re locked into the hut tonight,
And all the ravens are, the ravens are in their nests tonight,
And all the shops are closed, tonight.
And now, I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
Now I think it could be forever.
I almost cross the door,
The threshold over my head
And the curtain in my hand,
But in the last moment,
When the step was definitive,
Your arm found my shoulder
And you took me again
Where I’ll always belong
Hey, save your dress for stormy winters,
Rainy days of wind and clouds.
Save your smile and all your wishes
For one who deserves your love.
I know I’m none to give advice,
Because I’ve spun and twisted,
But in a curve, I’ve known your sweetness,
So I feel I’m able to tell you to wait.
Try to find a box of matches,
Burn me down, start a new page.
There is a road out of this forest,
don’t be afraid it’s just mist,
But you’ve got to wait.
Standing here, beside the lagoon isn’t good for you.
Standing here, beside the lagoon isn’t good for you.
Standing here, beside the lagoon isn’t good for you.
Don’t be afraid it’s just mist,
All you’ve got to do is wait.
Don’t let a sunbeam makes you think it’s summer,
Protect your feelings from the flash.
One day someone will take your clothes off
And you’ll find out he’s the one.
There’s a bird in the chimney
And no way to get it out,
Get away from your worries,
Wait and he will fly.
Because you are an ancient soldier,
Not the first, not the last.
All these mountains are for your eyes,
See the lights are shining, shining there, outside.
Standing here in your room isn’t good for you.
Standing here in your room isn’t good for you.
Standing here in your room isn’t good for you.
See the lights are shining,
All you’ve got to do is wait.
I’m a paternalistic man,
A pathetic supposed friend,
That tells you to get out the well,
That tells you to look at your face,
To forget the guest,
To forget the past,
To get up and see,
See how the lights are shining,
And you have to learn to wait.
Don’t put your trust in windy countries,
Omitting you can do whatever you want,
Don’t let your skin crack so soon,
Standing beside the lagoon isn’t good for you.
I’ve heard you want to go to Galloway,
To stare at the sea cracking down,
To watch the cliffs and to live riskily,
To leave behind a mystery,
And try to find a path.
Don’t hurry for love, one more advice,
Don’t waste the beauty of some words,
One unexpected day will be the day,
The day is on its way, and all you can do is to wait.
Love will come to you again,
For the first time, perhaps.
And you have two arms,
And you have two hands.
The greenest trees,
Grey clouds away,
The moon will come
To comb your hair,
Your precious lips,
Your pearly legs,
Your warm kiss,
I’ll never forget,
See your heart is burning,
And all you’ve had to do has been to wait.
See your heart is burning,
And all you’ve had to do has been to wait.
