Doris Monteiro - Cafezinho

 


Zé, me serve um cafezinho que seja pingado

Pouco açúcar, louça fria, estou ali sentado

Na terceira mesa embaixo do

Retrato desbotado do seu time que perdeu


Era assim que antigamente a gente se entendia

E se distraía

Era conforto à beça, tudo sem pressa

Meu cafezinho, quanto carinho!


Hoje em dia, o cafezinho é café diferente

Há tumulto, tudo em pé, tudo empurrando a gente

Compra a ficha, paga adiantado, açucareiro é disputado


Vou viajar pro estrangeiro

Talvez eu seja feliz tomando o nosso café

Num café lá de Paris


Vou viajar pro estrangeiro

Talvez eu seja feliz tomando o nosso café

Num café lá de Paris

Paul McCartney - No More Lonely Nights

 


I can wait another day

Until I call you

You've only got my heart on a string

And everything a-flutter


But another lonely night

Might take forever

We've only got each other to blame

It's all the same to me, love


'Cause I know what I feel to be right

No more lonely nights

No more lonely nights

You're my guiding light

Day or night, I'm always there


May I never miss the thrill

Of being near you

And if it takes a couple of years

To turn your tears to laughter


I will do what I feel to be right


No more lonely nights, never be another

No more lonely nights

You're my guiding light

Day or night, I'm always there


And I won't go away until you tell me so

No, I'll never go away


Yes, I know (I know)

What I feel (I feel)

To be right (be right)


No more lonely nights, never be another

No more lonely nights

You're my guiding light

Day or night, I'm always there


And I won't go away until you tell me so

No, I'll never go away

And I won't go away until you tell me so

No, I'll never go away

No more lonely nights, no, no

Roxy Music - More Than This


 I could feel at the time

There was no way of knowing

Fallen leaves in the night

Who can say where they're blowing?


As free as the wind

Hopefully learning

Why the sea on the tide

Has no way of turning


More than this

You know there's nothing

More than this

Tell me one thing

More than this

Ooh there's nothing


It was fun for a while

There was no way of knowing

Like a dream in the night

Who can say where we're going?


No care in the world

Maybe I'm learning

Why the sea on the tide

Has no way of turning


More than this

You know there's nothing

More than this

Tell me one thing

More than this

No there's nothing


More than this

Nothing

More than this

More than this

Nothing


Toni Braxton - Breathe Again


 If I never feel you in my arms again

If I never feel your tender kiss again

If I never hear I love you now and then

Will I never make love to you once again?

Please understand if love ends

Then I promise you, I promise you that

That I shall never breathe again

Breathe again

That I shall never breathe again


And I can't stop thinking about

About the way things used to be

And I can't stop thinking about

About the love that you made to me

And I can't get you out of my head

How in the world will I begin

To let you walk right out my life

And blow my heart away?

And I can't stop caring about

About the apple of my eye

And I can't stop doing without

Without the center of my life

And I can't get you out of my head

And I know I can't pretend

That I won't die if you decide

You won't see me again


If I never feel you in my arms again

If I never feel your tender kiss again

If I never hear I love you now and then

Will I never make love to you once again?

Please understand... If love ends

Then I promise you, I promise you that

That I shall never breathe again

Breathe again

That I shall never breathe again


And I can't stop thinking about

About the way my life would be

No, I can't stop thinking about

How could you love me then leave?

And I can't get you out of my mind

God knows how hard I've tried

And if you walk right out my life

God knows I'd surely die

And I can't stop doing without

Without the wailing of my heart

No I can't stop doing without

For I would surely fall apart

And I can't get you out of my mind

And I know I can't deny it

And I would die if you decide

You won't see me again


If I never feel you in my arms again

If I never feel your tender kiss again

If I never hear I love you now and then

Will I never make love to you once again?

Please understand... If love ends

Then I promise you, I promise you that

That I shall never breathe again

Breathe again

That I shall never breathe again

Elton John - Can You Feel the Love Tonight

 


There's a calm surrender

To the rush of day

When the heat of a rolling wind

Can be turned away

An enchanted moment

And it sees me through

It's enough for this restless warrior

Just to be with you


And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)

It is where we are

It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer

That we got this far


And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)

How it's laid to rest

It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best


There's a time for everyone

If they only learn

That the twisting kaleidoscope

Moves us all in turn

There's a rhyme and reason

To the wild outdoors

When the heart of this star-crossed voyager

Beats in time with yours


And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)

It is where we are

It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer

That we got this far


And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)

How it's laid to rest

It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best


It's enough to make kings and vagabonds

Believe the very best

All-4-One - I Swear


 I swear by the Moon and the stars in the sky

And I swear like the shadow that's by your side


I see the questions in your eyes

I know what's weighing on your mind

You can be sure I know my part


'Cause I'll stand beside you through the years

You'll only cry those happy tears

And though I'll make mistakes

I'll never break your heart


And I swear by the Moon and the stars in the sky

I'll be there

And I swear like the shadow that's by your side

I'll be there


For better or worse, till death do us part

I'll love you with every beat of my heart

And I swear, ooh


I'll give you every thing I can

I'll build your dreams with these two hands

We'll hang some memories on the walls

And when just the two of us are there

You won't have to ask if I still care

'Cause as the time turns the page, my love won't age at all


And I swear (I swear) by the Moon and the stars in the sky

I'll be there (I'll be there)

I swear (and I swear) like the shadow that's by your side

I'll be there (I'll be there)


For better or worse, till death do us part

I'll love you with every beat of my heart

And I swear


I swear (I swear) by the Moon and the stars in the sky

I'll be there (I'll be there)

I swear like the shadow that's by your side

I'll be there (I'll be there)


For better or worse, till death do us part

I'll love you with every (single) beat of my heart

I swear, I swear, oh, I swear


Richard Marx - Now And Forever


 Whenever I'm weary

From the battles that rage in my head

You make sense of madness

When my sanity hangs by a thread


I lose my way, but still you

Seem to understand

Now and forever

I will be your man


Sometimes I just hold you

Too caught up in me to see

I'm holding a fortune

That Heaven has given to me


I'll try to show you

Each and every way I can

Now and forever

I will be your man


Now, I can rest my worries

And always be sure

That I won't be alone, anymore

If I'd only known you were there

All the time

All this time!


Until the day the ocean

Doesn't touch the sand

Now and forever

I will be your man

Now and forever

I will be your man


Vanessa Williams - Save The Best For Last

 


But somehow it's enough


And now we're standing face to face

Isn't this world a crazy place

Just when I thought our chance had passed

You go and save the best for last


All of the nights you came to me

When some silly girl had set you free

You wondered how you'd make it through

I wondered what was wrong with you


'Cause how could you give your love to someone else

And share your dreams with me

Sometimes the very thing you're looking for

Is the one thing you can't see


But now we're standing face to face

Isn't this world a crazy place

Just when I thought our chance had passed

You go and save the best for last


Sometimes the very thing you're looking for

Is the one thing you can't see


Sometimes the snow comes down in June

Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon

Just when I thought our chance had passed

You go and save the best for last


You went and saved the best for last

Yeah-yeah

Clannad & Bono - In A Lifetime


 Hard to tell

Or recognise a sign

To see me through

A warning sign


(First the thunder)

Satisfied, if the past it will not lie

(Then the storm torn asunder)

The future you and I get blown away

(In the storm, in a lifetime)


And as the rain it falls, heavy in my heart

Begin again, as the storm breaks through

Believe the light in you

So the light shines in you


Without color, faded and worn

Torn asunder in the storm


Unless the sound has faded from your soul

Unless it disappears


(First the thunder, then the storm)

Selfish storm, hold on the inside

(Torn asunder in the storm)

One life in the storm


Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over


 There is freedom within

There is freedom without

Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup

There's a battle ahead

Many battles are lost

But you'll never see the end of the road

While you're travelling with me


Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now

When the world comes in

They come, they come

To build a wall between us

We know they won't win


Now I'm towing my car

There's a hole in the roof

My possessions are causing me suspicion

But there's no proof

In the paper today

Tales of war and of waste

But you turn right over to the TV page


Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now

When the world comes in

They come, they come

To build a wall between us

We know they won't win


Now I'm walking again

To the beat of a drum

And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

Only shadows ahead

Barely clearing the roof

Get to know the feeling of liberation and release


Hey now, hey now

Don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now

When the world comes in

They come, they come

To build a wall between us

You know they won't win


Don't let them win (Hey now, hey now)

Hey now, hey now

Hey now, hey now

Don't let them win (They come, they come)

Don't let them win (Hey now, hey now), yeah

Hey now, hey now

Genesis - Carpet Crawlers

 


There is lambswool under my naked feet

The wool is soft and warm

Gives off some kind of heat

A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed

Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid

The fleas cling to the golden fleece

Hoping they'll find peace

Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid

There's no hiding in memory

There's no room to avoid


The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor

For my second sight of people, they've more lifeblood than before

They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door

Where the needle's eye is winking, closing on the poor

The carpet crawlers heed their callers

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out


There's only one direction in the faces that I see

It's upward to the ceiling, where the chamber's said to be

Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in everytree

They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free

The carpet crawlers heed their callers

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out


Mild-mannered supermen are held in kryptonite

And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright

Through the door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight

It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight

The carpet crawlers heed their callers

"We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out


The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack

And the eager pack lift up their pitchers - they carry all theylack

The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack

And the tickler takes his stickleback

The carpet crawlers heed their callers

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

Black Sabbath - Changes

 


I feel unhappy

I feel so sad

I've lost the best friend

That I ever had

She was my woman

I love her so

But it's too late now

I've let her go


I'm going through changes

I'm going through changes


We shared the years

We shared each day

In love together

We found a way

But soon the world

Had its evil way

My heart was blinded

Love went astray


I'm going through changes

I'm going through changes


It took so long

To realize

And I can still hear

Her last goodbyes

Now all my days

Are filled with tears

Wish I could go back

And change these years


I'm going through changes

I'm going through changes
