Be Still My Heart*


"Be Still My Heart", The Postal Service


I was running late for work

So I didn't change my shirt

The evening's drinks left a lingering taste in my mouth

And when I left

You were fast asleep

Tangled in the sheets

And on the bus

I could have sworn it was all a dream

And it didn't happen to me

And then I felt the scrapes

From the slippery subway grate.

Oh how you laughed

At my complete lack of grace.

But I could not recall

A more perfect fall

Cause when I looked up into your eyes

It didn't hurt at all.

And I thought, be still my heart

This could be a brand new start, with you.

And it will be clear

If I wake up and you're still here with me in the morning.

And I thought, be still my heart

This could be a brand new start, with you.

And it will be clear

If I wake up and you're still here with me in the morning."


This could be a brand new start,with U.

Be there..With me*

I wish..


Running Up That Hill

Placebo


"It doesn't hurt me.

You want to feel, how it feels?

You want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?

You want to hear about the deal I'm making.

You, (If I only could, be running up that hill)

You and me (If I only could, be running up that hill)

And if I only could,Make a deal with God,

Get him to swap our places,

Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building.

If I only could

You don't want to hurt me,

But see how deep the bullet lies.

Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder.

There's a thunder in our hearts, baby

So much hate for the ones we love?

Tell me, we both matter, don't we?

You, (If I only could, be running up that hill)

You and me (If I only could, be running up that hill)

You and me, won't be unhappy

And if I only could, Make a deal with God,

And get him to swap our places,

Be running up that road,

Be running up that hill, Be running up that building.

If I only could Come on, baby, come on, come on, darling,

Let me steal this moment from you now.

Come on angel, come on, come on, darling,

Let's exchange the experience

And if I only could, Make a deal with God,

And get him to swap our places,

Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems.

And if I only could, Make a deal with God,

And I'd get him to swap our places,

Be running up that road, Be running up that hill,

With no problems.

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill

If I only could, be running up that hill"


For just one day..*

Sempre...?


Como é que sabemos que continua a valer a pena? Como é que sabemos que está na altura de deixar de lutar? Quando é que devemos deixar as armas de lado, desistir da luta e admitirmos que está na altura de desistir?


Quanto tempo é suposto não desistir? Será melhor ter e depois perder ou nunca ter tido?


Quanto tempo dura um "para sempre"?


...


Maybe it's written..*


Maravilhoso,Tocante,Suberbo,Explêndido,Emotivo,Apaixonante...E todos os sinónimos de 'Muito Bom'.


Uma visão cruel e crua da Índia, misturada com uma mensagem de esperança e uma história de amor ternurenta e tocante, que nos faz desejar viver um amor assim. E a banda sonora?Não podia ser mais perfeita.



Antes de ver o filme já sabia que ia gostar, mas depois de o ver..Amei.



'SlumDog Millionaire' é, sem dúvida alguma, o filme do ano (Sorry Benjamin!) e, um dos melhores filmes de sempre.


Jamal: "I knew you'd be watching."
Latika: "I thought we would meet only in death."
Jamal: "This is our destiny."


Maybe it is...*

Lições de Vida*


'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button'
Um dos melhores filmes que já vi até hoje. Uma história diferente, mas simples e muito bonita.
Uma história que nos faz ver a vida de outra forma, que nos faz olhar para nós mesmos e pensar: "Afinal ainda vou a tempo de ser feliz.".
Deixo-'vos' com as melhores "memorable quotes":

Daisy: "Goodnight Benjamin."
Benjamin Button: "Goodnight Daisy."
Benjamin Button: "I was thinking how nothing lasts, and what a shame that is."
Daisy: "Some things last."
Daisy:"Will you sleep with me?"
Benjamin Button: "Absolutely."
Benjamin Button: "For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
Benjamin Button: "Some people, were born to sit by a river. Some get struck by lightning. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mothers. And some people, dance."

E eu?..Eu danço*

*Someone that Cannot Love*


Someone That Cannot Love, David Fonseca

"You locked up your heart
You wake up with tears and stars in your eyes
You gave it all to someone that
Cannot love you back
Your days are packed
With wishes and hopes for the love that you've got
You waste it all to someone that
Cannot love you back
Someone that cannot love
Love, ain't this enough
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more
You secretly made
Castles of sand that you hide in the shade
But you cannot hold the tides that break them
And you build them all over again
You talk all these words
You make conversations that cannot be heard
How long until you notice that
No one is answering back
Someone that cannot love
Love, ain't this enough
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more
Love, love, ain't this enough
Pushing around
You try to take comfort in words
But words
Well they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more
Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love
Love, ain't this enough
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more
Love, love, ain't this enough
Pushing around
To find little comfort in words
But words
Well they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more
You know they'll bruise you more
Words they will hurt you more
Words they will hurt you more
Yes they'll bruise you
Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love."

Hello stranger*

O post de hoje é um bocadinho diferente.
Não é um post de desabafo, nem sobre mim (que, qual narcisista, não tenho outro assunto para falar), mas sim um post para quem me lê. Segundo o meu contador de visitas (que só está aqui porque tem um gato engraçado como imagem), alguém (ou "alguéms") veio ao meu blog e já voltou algumas vezes. Por isso, venho convidar o "returning visitor" a, se sentir vontade para isso, exprimir-se e dizer de sua justiça. Este é um blog de desabafos e a sua existência deve-se à minha grande vontade e necessidade de desabafar. Portanto, se alguém sentir necessidade de fazer o mesmo, sinta-se à vontade para o fazer.
Por vezes é bom partilhar os desabafos.

E hoje acabo o meu post com um cumprimento:

Seja bem-vindo ao meu cantinho.Volte sempre*

Às vezes, só às vezes..



..gostava de ser outra pessoa e ter outra vida, gostava de poder mudar o Mundo, gostava de ter "aquele" corpo perfeito, gostava que o meu nariz fosse mais pequeno, gostava de poder salvar todos os animais em risco, gostava de ajudar todas as pessoas que precisam, gostava de ter olhos verdes, gostava de poder fazer a diferença, gostava de desaparecer, gostava de fazer uma mudança radical na minha vida, gostava de ter nascido noutro país, gostava de ter uma quinta onde pudesse acolher todos os animais abandonados, gostava de não ser tão "frágil" (fraca?), gostava de ter uma vida mais animada, gostava de ir à Lua e ficar por lá, gostava de poder resolver todos os problemas do Mundo, gostava de não ser viciada em chocolate, gostava de não ser tão preguiçosa, gostava de fazer férias em sítios paradisíacos, gostava de viver pertinho do mar, gostava de não ser eu, gostava de..
