só tu é que não te lembras. até as folhas se lembram. daquela lagoa perdida no meio das rochas, daquele céu azul ausente, daquele dia de calor nocturno, daquela água em tons de verde gelo.
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
só tu é que não te lembras.talvez não queiras. mas os ramos lembram-se de te ver chegar. de te deitares no meio das folhas secas e de beberes toda a água que conseguiste. you’re so beautiful. de te deitares virado para a lua e ‘i’m lost, i’m, for the first time, completely lost. i want to start over again. i want to break these chains and run, run, forever run, never looking back’. mas ficaste ali. e despiste-te ao som da lua.
Mama’s dancin’ with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin’ like molasses in the sky
só tu é que não te lembras. tenho a certeza que não queres. mas até as raízes das árvores sabem que adormecemos ali, exaustos, quentes, enquanto esperávamos para ver o nascer do sol do deserto. e lembro-me de acordar enrolado no teu corpo, perdido nos teus cabelos, com os primeiros raios de sol, de ver a tua sombra perfilada em mim. e tu puxaste do teu tabaco, acendeste um cigarro, e sentaste-te em cima de uma pedra que por ali andava ‘if i’d known it’d be this way i’d've given up a long long time ago…’ obrigado, é bom saber isso.
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he’d leave you longing for
só tu é que não te lembras.eu lembro-te como se fosse ontem. apagas-te o cigarro, chegaste ao pé de mim, agarraste-me pelo cabelo e levaste-me a ver o nascer do sol no deserto ao som da água que caía. e no fim atiraste-te para aquela lagoa gélida ‘bastard. if i’d known u’d be such a slut i’d simply fuk’d off a long time ago’
Black velvet and that little boy’s smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that’ll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please
Naquela minha ilha de pensamentos lembrei-me de tantos momentos de anos e anos antes, em que eras aquilo que parecias ser. waddafuck happened that made u change so much? was it me? was it you? who? what? for the last months i’ve made my self confortable with your drunkness, your dumbness, your careless way, allure oblige. for the last months i’ve been indulged by your ways of doing things, your sweet words, your ways to make me feel like a school boy, to drive me down underground and to lift me up with your words, i’ve made myself
Up in Memphis the music’s like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
believe in you, i’ve fallen asleep listening to your hair, your lips, your eyes, and i’ve surrendered to your wishes. but you’re such a slut. you don’t tell me what you want to but what i want you to. you don’t do what i want you to do but what you want to and you make sure i do what you want me to do to you. you’ve made me come over just for your fun, you’d go ‘jump’ and i’d go ‘how high’, you’d say ‘do it’ and i’d give up anything to do it. and in return you’ve given me hell, ou como dizem os outros, gritando,
Mama’s baby’s in the heart of every school girl
“Love me tender” leaves ‘em cryin’ in the aisle
i shouldn’t've sold my soul so easily, i shouldn’t've jumped for joy everytime, i shouldn’t've given you life and expected ice cold hell, i should’ve known how to keep my guard up and break your heart, not leave you break mine. god, it’s a fuck.
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he’d leave you longing for
e abandonei-te ali mesmo. antes que te fosses embora, usei-te, abusei de ti, e fui-me eu embora. esperando nunca mais te ver.
Every word of every song that he sang was for you
In a flash he was gone, it happened so soon, what could you do?
If you please, if you please, if you please
