if you wait another day

i will wait a day

if you wait another day

okay, okay

if you wait another day

i will wait a day

every time i think you say

it's time for us to go our way

i say wait another day

if you wait another day

i will wait a day

got a letter that did say

that the kid had passed away

and everything it didn't say

if you wait another day

i will wait a day

the time has got me in its sway

though i'd like to ride away

i will wait another day

if you wait another day

i will wait a day

Is That All There Is ?

I remember when I was a very little girl, our house caught on fire.

I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up

in his arms and raced through the burning building out to the pavement.

I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go up in flames.

And when it was all over I said to myself, "Is that all there is to a fire"?

And when I was 12 years old, my father took me to a circus, the greatest show on earth.

There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears.

And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.

And so I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle.

I had the feeling that something was missing.

I don't know what, but when it was over,

I said to myself, "is that all there is to a circus?".

Then I fell in love, head over heels in love, with the most wonderful boy in the world.

We would take long walks by the river or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.

We were so very much in love.

Then one day he went away and I thought I'd die, but I didn't,

and when I didn't I said to myself, "is that all there is to love?".

I know what you must be saying to yourselves,

if that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all?

Oh, no, not me. I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment,

for I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,

when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my lst breath, I'll be saying to myself:

Is that all there is, is that all there is?

If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing.

Let's break out the booze and have a ball.

If that's all there is...

Do You Trust Me?

do you love me?

yes i love you

do you trust me?

yes i do

do you love me?

yes i love you

and you trust me?

i'm not sure

now the stars are sick of shining

though nothing's really wrong

and it doesn't take a jealous man

to sing a jealous song

so you love me?

yes i love you

and you trust me?

yes i do

do you know me?

you don't know me

you can trust me

i don't know

now the lilac's lost its fragrance

and the soil has turned to dust

and it doesn't take a trusting man

to sing a song of trust

.

is it over?

it feels over

don't you trust me?

no i don't

Sing A Song For You

In my heart is where I long for you

In my smile I search for you

Each time you turn and run away I cry inside

My silly way, just too young to know any more

In my world the devil dances and dares

To leave my soul just anywhere

Until I find peace in this world

I'll sing a song everywhere I can

Just too young to know any more

The wind covers me cold

The starry skies all around my eyes

Far behind the city moans

Well worthy of the people there

Oh, the psalms they love to hear

So let me sing a song for you

Just to help your day along

Let me sing a song for you

One I've known so very long

Oh, please could you find the time

I Cried For You

you're beautiful so silently

it lies beneath a shade of blue

it struck me so violently

when i looked at you

but others pass

the never pause

to feel that magic in your hand

to me you're like a wild rose

they never understand why

i cried for you

when the sky cried for you

and when you went

i became a hopeless drifter

but this life was not for you

though i learned from you

that beauty needonly be a whisper

i'll cross the sea

for a different world

with your treasure,

a secret for me to hold

in many years they may forget

this love of ours or that we met

they may not know

how much you meant to me

without you now i see

how fragile the world can be

and i know you've gone away

but in my heart you'll always stay

Fool For You

you came into my life

i don't think that you meant to

you were standing in a doorway

i was trying to walk through

like an angel or the devil

i could never quite say

it doesn't matter, anyway

cuz i'm a fool for you

i'm a fool for you

open my heart and let the wind blow through

i'm a fool for you

you can tell me anything and i'll believe

cuz when you keep me hanging

it only feeds the dream

i'm never going to reach you

you're a distant shore

but you've still got me

coming back for more

oh, let the wind blow, through

now the snow is falling

all the roads are gone

the earth is moving

and i am moving on

i had so much to tell you

but no words to say

it doesn't matter, anyway

oh, i'm a fool for you

i'm still a fool for you

open my heart and let the wind blow through

cuz i'm a fool for you

Jacques Brel

Ne Me Quitte Pas

ne me quitte pas / il faut oublier

tout peut s'oublier / qui s'enfuit déjà

oublier le temps / des malentendus

et le temps perdu / a savoir comment

oublier ces heures / qui tuaient parfois

a coups de pourquoi / le coeur du bonheur

ne me quitte pas / ne me quitte pas

moi je t'offrirai / des perles de pluie

venues de pays / où il ne pleut pas

je creuserai la terre / jusqu'après ma mort

pour couvrir ton corps / d'or et de lumière

je ferai un domaine / où l'amour sera roi

où l'amour sera loi / où tu seras reine

ne me quitte pas / ne me quitte pas

je t'inventerai / des mots insensés

que tu comprendras / je te parlerai

de ces amants-là / qui ont vu deux fois

leurs coeurs s'embraser / je te raconterai

l'histoire de ce roi / mort de n'avoir pas

pu te rencontrer / ne me quitte pas

ne me quitte pas / ne me qitte pas

on a vu souvent / rejaillir le feu

d'un ancien volcan / qu'on croyait trop vieux

il est paraît-il / des terres brûlées

donnant plus de blé / qu'un meilleur avril

et quand vient le soir / pour qu'un ciel flamboie

le rouge et le noir / ne s'épousent-ils pas

ne me quitte pas / ne me quitte pas

je ne vais plus pleurer / je ne vais plus parler

je me cacherai là / a te regarder

danser et sourire / et à t'écouter

chanter et puis rire / laisse-moi devenir

l'ombre de ton ombre / l'ombre de ta main

l'ombre de ton chien / ne me quitte pas

ne me quitte pas / ne me quitte pas

que te devo

me obrigo

resisto, mas

periodicamente

há coisas

que me trazem a ti

então, fico frágil

e por breves momentos

sei que houve

um inigualável tempo

em que tive tudo na vida

Phone Me Tonight

Phone me tonight, when you’re pissed

Just to tell me, that I’m missed
Tell me you want me, in your cunt
Tell me you’re not sure, what you want

I tried to tell you, I made it clear
I think you make me, not want you here

Phone me tomorrow, when you’re sober
Just to tell me, it’s all over
Tell me I’m not wanted, in your bed
Remember one thing, you haven’t said

I tried to tell you, I tried to say
I never wanted, it to end this way

i follow the night

can't stand the light

when will i begin

to live again

one day i'll fly away

leave all this to yesterday

what more could your love do for me

when will love be through with me

why live life from dream to dream

and dread the day when dreaming ends

one day i'll fly away

leave all this to yesterday

why live life from dream to dream

and dread the day when dreaming ends

one day i'll fly away

Have You Forgotten ?

i can't let you be, cause your beauty won't allow me

wrapped in white sheets

like an angel from a bed

time storyand shut out what they say

cause your friends are fucked up anyway

and when they come around

somehow they feel up and you feel down

when we were kids, we hated things our parents did

we listened low to casey kasem's radio show

that's when friends were nice

to think of them just makes you feel nice

the smell of grass in spring

and october leaves cover everything

have you forgotten how to love yourself?

i can't believe all the good things that you do for me

sat back in a chair like a princess from a faraway place

nobody's nice, when you're older your heart turns to ice

and shut out what they say

they're too dumb to mean it anyway

when we were kids, we hated things our sisters did

backyard summer pools and christmases were beautiful

and the sentiment of coloured mirrored ornaments

and the open drapes

look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes

have you forgotten how to love yourself?

Jenny Again

throw the knife into the stream

run away across the fields

leave me lying where i fell

rivers running out of me

meet my jenny in the lane

take a car and run away

get as far as you can get

before the new day

your heart beats quick and strong

your mind pores over it all

don't worry because no one saw me fall

sit inside a little chef

look around but not at her

see my kisses on her lips

see my fingers in her hair

think of this against your will

see the knife edge slipping in

see the questions in my eyes

as i ask them

change your name and find a job

marry jenny in the spring

buy a dog and call him pete

push the children on the swings

think about me now and then

try to find a peaceful space

count the days as they go by

count the lines upon your face

Casimir Pulaski Day

In the morning through the window shade

When the light pressed up against your shoulder blade

I could see what you were reading

Oh the glory that the lord has made

And the complications you could do without

When I kissed you on the mouth

Tuesday night at the bible study

We lift our hands and pray over your body

But nothing ever happens

I remember at Michael's house

In the living room when you kissed my neck

And I almost touched your blouse

In the morning at the top of the stairs

When your father found out what we did that night

And you told me you were scared

Oh the glory when you ran outside

With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied

And you told me not to follow you

In the morning when you finally go

And the nurse runs in with her head hung low

And the cardinal hits the window

In the morning in the winter shade

On the first of March on the holiday

I thought I saw you breathing

Oh the glory that the lord has made

And the complications when

I see his face In the morning in the window

Oh the glory when he took our place

But he took my shoulders and he shook my face

And he takes and he takes and he takes

Chão De Estrelas

a porta do barraco era sem trinco

e a lua furando o nosso zinco

salpicava de estrelas nosso chão

tu, pisavas nos astros distraída

sem saber que a ventura desta vida

é a cabrocha, o luar e o violão
