I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
And I’ve been waiting for this moment, for all my life
Oh, Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight?
Oh, Lord
Oh, Lord
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I’ve seen your face before my friend
But I don’t know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin
I know where you’ve been
It’s all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh, Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
And I’ve been waiting for this moment all my life
Oh, Lord
Oh, Lord
Well, I remember
I remember don’t worry
How could I ever forget? It’s the first time
The last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up
No, you don’t fool me
Well, the hurt doesn’t show
But the pain still grows
It’s no stranger to you or me
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh, Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh, Lord
I can feel coming in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh, Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
I can feel in the air tonight
Oh, Lord
Oh Lord, oh, Lord
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life
Oh Lord, oh, Lord

Get up ‘outta’ your rockin’ chair, grandma!
Or rather would you care to dance, grandmother?

Hey you!
Give up to the ghost that’s haunting you now
Shout it out
Don’t let it stay inside and eat you alive

Make up your mind
Don’t you want to stay this side of the line?
I can assure you when you’re my age
You’ll learn from all you’ve left behind

(You’ve got to)
Dance little sister
Don’t give up today
Hang on till tomorrow
I don’t wanna hear you’re late

Dance little sister
Don’t give up today
Hang on till tomorrow
Don’t give up your stay

Say now
Share the weight and lay your cross down
And let the long reaching arm
Of hope bring you around

It ain’t easy but giving up
Is the easy thing to do
Time is on your side
Would you just watch the clock and let it tick for you?

(You’ve got to)
Dance little sister
Don’t give up today
Hang on till tomorrow
I don’t wanna hear you’re late

Dance little sister
Don’t give up today
Hang on till tomorrow
Don’t give up your stay

Depeche Mode – ”Get the balance right”

There’s more besides
Joyrides
The little house in the countryside
Understand
Learn to demand
Compromise
And sometimes lie
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Be responsible
Respectable
Stable but gullible
Concerned and caring
Help the helpless
But always remain
Ultimately selfish
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
When you think you’ve got a hold of it all
You haven’t got a hold at all
When you reach the top
Get ready to drop
Prepare yourself for the fall
You’re gonna fall
It’s almost predictable
Almost
Don’t turn this way
Don’t turn that way
Straight down the middle until next Thursday
First to the left
Then back to the right
Twist and turn ‘til you’ve got it right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Get the balance right
Almost

“Curios cum o prietenie se naște și apoi se hrănește dintr-o anumită stare de spirit a cuiva, ca să se stingă îndată ce flacăra acelei dispoziții, care ne-a făcut o vreme să credem că avem înaintea noastră un om inteligent, cu mintea scăpărătoare, s-a retras sau chiar a consumat ceva interior, ceva prețios. Desigur, acum omul nu ne mai spune nimic și ne mirăm că avem în fața noastră un ins obișnuit și tern!”

Până când nu te iubeam,
Dorule, dorule,
Unde mă culcam dormeam,
Dorule, dorule!
Dar acum că te iubesc,
Dorule, dorule,
Nu pot să mă odihnesc,
Dorule, dorule!
Ies din casă să mă duc,
Dorule, dorule,
Nu știu încotro s-apuc,
Dorule, dorule
Săraca inima mea,
Dorule, dorule,
De la tin’ nu se mai ia,
Dorule, dorule!

In the garden of Truth
There dwells as bird
With feathers of a yellow gold
And all thru’ the day
The sun he play upon his raiment gay

In the garden of Truth
There dwells as bird
With feathers of a silver pale
And all night long
The moon she shone upon her raiment warm

And all within the branches of this great oak tree
That some call the Tree of Life
And the wise men they come
And they rest upon the roots
And they hear the song.

And all within the branches of this great oak tree
That some call the Tree of Life
And the wisemen they come
To rest upon the roots
And they hear the song.

And now to sing this lovely ballad
Here it is
Mama Cass
Stars shinin’ bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper, „I love you”
Birds singin’ in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Say, „Nighty-night” and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fadin’ but I linger on, dear
Still cravin’ your kiss
I’m longin’ to linger ‘til dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams ‘til sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams, whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fadin’ but I linger on, dear
Still cravin’ your kiss
I’m longing to linger ‘til dawn, dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams ‘til sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you
But in your dreams, whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Sam Smith – ”Writing”s on the wall”

 Smith, Sam  Comentariile sunt închise pentru Sam Smith – ”Writing”s on the wall”
ian. 272024
 

I’ve been here before
But always hit the floor
I’ve spent a lifetime running
And I always get away
But with you, I’m feeling something
That makes me want to stay
I’m prepared for this
I never shoot to miss
But I feel like a storm is coming
If I’m gonna make it through the day
Then there’s no more use in running
This is something I got to face
If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you’re not here, I’m suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall
A million shards of glass
That haunt me from my past
As the stars begin to gather
And the light begins to fade
When all hope begins to shatter
Know that I won’t be afraid
If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you’re not here, I’m suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall
The writing’s on the wall
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you’re not here, I’m suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you’re not here, I’m suffocating
I want to feel love run through my blood
Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
For you, I have to risk it all
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall

Love is a madness
I can’t get away
It hurts me to love you
And it hurts me to stay
This sweet sadness
Is this all i get?
For picking the dark horse
And placing my bet
Well if i can’t make you love me
And if i can’t make you pretend
No no I can’t make you want me baby
Then there’s nothing else to recommend
I guess it has to end
Love is a madness
A backstabbing friend
It raises you up
And tears you down in the end
Well if you’ve had this
I think you’ll agree
You ain’t no good for nothing
Just as sad as can be
Well if i can’t make you love me
And if i can’t make you pretend
No no i can’t make you want me baby
Then there’s nothing else to recommend
Oh no it ain’t the last
And it ain’t the first
Lover that left me when i was dying of thirst
No you wont know i miss you
No you wont see me cry
I’m getting real good
I’ve don’t this so many times
If you think to come back
Knocking on my door
Baby don’t bother
Love don’t live here no more
Love is a madness
I can’t get away
It hurts me to love you
And it hurts me to stay
This sweet sadness
Is all that i get
For picking the dark horse
And placing my bet
Well if i can’t make you love me
And if i can’t make you pretend
No no i can’t make you want me baby
Then there’s nothing else to recommend
I guess it has to
I guess it has to
I guess it has to end
I guess it has to end

”Sunt îndrăgostit de tine şi nu am chef să-mi refuz simpla plăcere de a spune lucruri adevărate. Sunt îndrăgostit de tine şi ştiu că iubirea e doar un strigăt în neant şi că uitarea este inevitabilă şi că suntem cu toţii condamnaţi şi că va veni o zi când toată munca noastră se va fi prefăcut în pulbere şi ştiu că soarele va înghiţi unicul pământ pe care-l vom avea vreodată şi sunt îndrăgostit de tine!”

The Bluebells – ”Young at heart”

Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Yet what a start
Old before their time
They married young
For love at last
Was their only crime
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
Young at heart
Yet not a chance
To be a child at all
They told us tales
They told us lies
Don’t they know
They shouldn’t have told us at all
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
Young at heart
You’re so young at heart
Young at heart

Down in the blinding light
It’s getting cold
I’ve been worn out by the night
But I can’t let go
And the sounds in my ears explain
I’ve been here too long
The freedom hard to maintain
I should be gone
Long have I waited here
For nothing to come
The sequence of twisted turns
That can’t be undone
They’re paying your rent
They’re feeding your kids
But it’s taking much more
Than pleasing your needs
Saw the water rising
On a beautiful day
A flood only washing the ones away
Who were lying in the sun
And you’re still where you’ve begun
Long have I waited here
For nothing to come
The sequence of twisted turns
That can’t be undone
Long have I waited here
For nothing to come
The sequence of twisted turns
That can’t be undone
And you’ve hurt yourself trying
And you’ve hurt yourself trying
And you’ve hurt yourself trying
And you’ve hurt yourself trying
(And you’ve hurt yourself trying)
(And you’ve hurt yourself trying)
(And you’ve hurt yourself trying)
(And you’ve hurt yourself)

I never saw sunlight
Burn as bright
I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight

You say it’s getting better
You say it’s allright

But I never felt darkness
Like I feel it tonight
Little black heart

Raindrops on my window
I can’t tell them apart
Like the few things forgiven
In my little black heart

You say it’s getting better
We just never got it right

But I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight
Little black heart

Some day we will shine
Like the moon in the morning
Like the sun when it’s dawning
Yes the sun when it’s dawning
The sun

Some day we will shine
Like the moon in the morning
Like the sun when it’s dawning
Yes the sun when it’s dawning
The sun

Raindrops on my window
I can’t tell them apart
Like a few things forgotten
And a few things ignored

You say it’s getting better
You say it’s allright

But I never felt darkness
The way I feel it tonight
Little black heart

My little black heart

Inside my TV, I
Never stop to wonder why
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
Some faceless get on the screen
The most honest man I’ve ever seen
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
Won’t you show me
Something true today?
C’mon and show me
Anything but this
She took us by the hand
Hell was the promised land
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
I’m lying by the road
Because she cut off all my clothes
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
Won’t you show me
Something true today?
C’mon and show me
Anything but this
Inside my future life
What I see just makes me cry
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
The clocks will all run backwards
All the sheep will have two heads
And Thursday night and Friday
Will be on Tuesday night instead
And all the times will keep on changing
And the movement will increase
There’s something about the living, babe
That sends me off my feet
There’s breeding in the sewers
And the rats are on their way
They’re clouding up the images
Of my perfect day
And I know I’m not alone
And I know I’m not alone
And I know I’m not alone
Anything but this
Can you hear me?
Inside my TV, I
I never stop to wonder why
I’m way down now
I’m way down now
Then some faceless get comes on my screen
The most honest man I’ve ever seen
I’m way down now
I’m way down

Hope is beauty
Personified
At her feet, the world
Hypnotized
A million flashes
A million smiles
And on the catwalk
She flaunts her style a long mile
But in this heart of darkness
Our hope lies lost and torn
All flame like love is fleeting
When there’s no hope anymore
Pain and glory
Hand in hand
A sacrifice
The highest price
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like when angels fall
And in this heart of darkness
Our hope lies on the floor
All love like fame is fleeting
When there’s no hope anymore
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel, angels fall
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel, angels fall
Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper, she was gone
Like an angel, angels fall

Speranţele-i, şi binele-i, şi tot!

”Adrian vorbi cu voce scăzută:
– Aceasta-i liniştea noastră. E ca o odihnă după cumplite încercări. Uneori peisajul acesta pustiu, liniştit şi trist, tresare ca sub vifor. Ş-atuncea cad vrednicii lângă nemernici, amestecaţi în aceeaşi pustiire a gloanţelor şi schijelor. De ce au pierit cei care râdeau ieri; de ce trăieşti tu, ca să te temi de mâni, nu se ştie… Ah, titelule, generaţia noastră are o viaţă tragică şi absurdă… Nu ştiu dacă mă înţelegi, titelule…
– Te înţeleg, bie, suspină în întuneric mezinul.
– Da; pămîntu-i plin de mormintele tinereţii.
Adrian avea o voce aşa de amară, încît lui Paul îi veniră lacrimile, şi le lăsă să curgă în lungul obrazului; îşi simţi apoi dreapta cuprinsă în pumnul tare al fratelui său.”

Cum a învățat un om înstărit ce este răbdarea de la servitorul său

”Saadi, poetul persan, povesteşte: Un om cu mare faimă avea un servitor cu un chip hidos şi cu fire nesuferită. Nu putea primi nici o poruncă fără să se mânie, se purta grosolan la masă, nu-şi făcea treaba cum se cuvine, se împiedica de oaspeţi şi-şi lăsa stăpânul să rabde de sete. Nici că-i păsa de mustrări şi dojeni, care nu făceau, oricum, decât să înrăutăţească lucrurile. În timpul nopţii, casa răsuna de paşii lui grei şi de zgomotul vaselor sparte. I se întâmpla să arunce găinile în fântână şi să pună mănunchiuri de vreascuri în mijlocul drumului pe unde urma să treacă stăpânul său. Nu te puteai bizui pe el cu nici un chip.
Nişte prieteni ai stăpânului l-au sfătuit să se descotorosească de servitorul cel nesuferit şi să caute altul.
– Dar de ce? a răspuns stăpânul, zâmbind. Îi datorez servitorului meu o adâncă recunoştinţă, pentru că m-a ajutat să mă îndrept. M-a învăţat ce înseamnă răbdarea, şi continuă să mă înveţe asta în fiecare zi. Iar aceasta îmi îngăduie să trec mai uşor peste toate necazurile vieţii.”

Jean-Claude Carriere (povestire filozofică)
