Angel

angel came down
from heaven yesterday
she stayed with me
just long enough to rescue me
and she told me a story yesterday
about the sweet love between
the moon and the deep blue sea
and then she spread
her wings high over me
she said she's gonna
come back tomorrow

and i said
"fly on my sweet angel
fly on through the sky
fly on my sweet angel
tomorrow i'm gonna be
by your side"

Angel

sure enough
this morning came unto me
silver wings silhouetted
against the child's sunrise
and my angel she said unto me
"today is the day for you to rise
take my hand, you're gonna be my man
you're gonna rise"
and then she took
high over yonder

and i said
"fly on my sweet angel
fly on through the sky
fly on my sweet angel
forever i will be
by your side"

*

a hora da partida soa quando
escurece o jardim e o vento passa
estala o chão e as portas batem
quando a noite cada nó em si deslaça

a hora da partida soa quando
as árvores parecem inspiradas
como se tudo nelas germinasse

soa quando no fundo dos espelhos
me é estranha e longínqua a minha face
e de mim se desprende a minha vida

Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen

Break

volta, linda

volta, por favor

se voltares

eu fico o resto da vida

a fazer desenhos

para que tu

lhes pintes

as janelas

Son Lux

Break

*

que nenhuma estrela
queime o teu perfil
que nenhum deus
se lembre do teu nome
que nem o vento
passe onde tu passas

para ti
criarei um dia puro
livre como o vento
e repetido
como o florir
das ondas ordenadas

.

Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen

Home

take all your medicine
it's gonna make you well
you'll have to run till it's over
i'm sure you'll be able to tell
you'll know it's over
for the rest of your life
you're gonna be high

come home
it's something less than a holiday
when you come home
it's something less than a holiday
they'll be sneaking up behind you again

Home

talk to the doctor
he said you're well for home
take all your medicine
be sure you're never alone
you'll know it's over
for the rest of your life
you're gonna be high

come home
it's something less than a holiday
when you come home
it's something less than a holiday
they'll be sneaking up behind you again

Bye Bye

pack up all my care and woe
here i go swingin' low
bye, bye, blackbird

where somebody waits for me
sugar's sweet, so is she
bye, bye, blackbird

no one here can love or understand me
oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me

make my bed and light the light
i'll be home late tonight
blackbird, bye, bye

Blackbird

make my bed and light the light
i'll be home late tonight
leave your perch and take the sky

too-da-loo, bye, bye
blackbird, go take a fly
oh little blackbird, bye

make my bed and light the light
i'll be home late tonight
blackbird, bye bye

Cheek

heaven, i'm in heaven
and my heart beats so
that i can hardly speak
and i seem to find
the happiness i seek
when we're out together
dancing, cheek to cheek

heaven, i'm in heaven
and the cares that hang
around me thro' the week
seem to vanish like
a gambler's lucky streak
when we're out together
dancing, cheek to cheek

To

oh! i love
to climb a mountain
and to reach
the highest peak
but it doesn't
thrill me half as much
as dancing
cheek to cheek

oh! i love
to go out fishing
in a river
or a creek
but i don't
enjoy it half as much
as dancing
cheek to cheek

Cheek

dance with me
i want my arm about you
the charm about you
will carry me
thro' to heaven

i'm in heaven
and my heart
beats so that
i can hardly speak
and i seem to find
the happiness i seek
when we're out together
dancing, cheek to cheek
