À primeira vista

(Chico César)

Quando não tinha nada, eu quis
Quando tudo era ausência, esperei
Quando tive frio, tremi
Quando tive coragem, liguei

Quando chegou carta, abri
Quando ouvi Prince, dancei
Quando o olho brilhou, entendi
Quando criei asas, voei

Quando me chamou, eu vim
Quando dei por mim, tava aqui
Quando lhe achei, me perdi
Quando vi você, me apaixonei

Quando não tinha nada, eu quis
Quando tudo era ausência, esperei
Quando tive frio, tremi
Quando tive coragem, liguei

Quando chegou carta, abri
Quando ouvi Salif Keita, dancei
Quando o olho brilhou, entendi
Quando criei asas, voei

Quando me chamou, eu vim
Quando dei por mim, tava aqui
Quando lhe achei, me perdi
Quando vi você, me apaixonei

Incense and candles

baby ooh (yes)
Let's go

Eye've been waiting 4 U baby all night long
(eye've been waiting 4 U baby all night long)
So eye could get somebody 2 play this song
(c'mon)
The jam that's got a beat like it's making love
(the jam that's got a beat like it's making love)
Cuz Ur the only one eye've been thinking of
(oh yea) whoaa

Come in2 my room of incense and candles
Eye've got something that U won't know how 2 handle
U can tell me na-uh but U know how this man do
Eye'ma want it all night long
c'mon c'mon
Eye'ma want it all night long

Eye'm glad we're compatible, mature, and grown
(mature and grown)
'Cause this is nothing something U can do alone
There's a dance floor but we can use a table (yes we can)
Eye've got 2 have a partner that's willing and able
(willing and able)

Come in2 my room of incense and candles
Eye've got something that U won't know how 2 handle
U can tell me na-uh but U know how this man do
Eye'ma want it all night long

Once U try 2 seduce me it grows and grows
Ur mind will never deny what Ur body knows
Eye know U want 2 take off all your clothes
But please don't do it

Eye got a cool idea my darling, let's go outside
Eye wanna smother U with something shiny as the rims upon my ride
Eye want 2 look 4 the milky way and uhh when eye find it
Eye'm gonna make U scream my name as if it was divine (Prince)
But we both know that we gotta praise the one who made ya
Give props 2 Ur mama 4 the healthy food she must have gave ya
4 the meek at heart these words they might sound like a sinner
But the truth is that U're sitting on every one of Ur dinners
But that's fine, 'Cause eye'm blind
About blind as a cat in the dark
It might come at 2 in the morning after roaming in the park
Hard 2 understand always changing plans
Harder than hell 2 handle
One scent alone make it worth Ur while the price of Prince's candle

All night
Circles of flowers or pyramids of sand
Violet colored diamonds
U got 2 understand

Incense and candles
Wherever U can
U got 2 make this woman
Lust 4 this man

Come in2 my room of incense and candles
Eye've got something that U won't know how 2 handle
U can tell me na-uh but U know how this man do
Eye'ma want it all night long

Lolita

ow, ow
stop it baby
U're a VIP at least 2 me
Come here and show me some ID
Eye know U're fine from head 2 pumps
if U were mine we'd bump bump bump
U're much 2 young 2 peep my stash
U're tryin' 2 write checks Ur body can't cash
U can't hang with this, girl

Lolita
U're sweeter
but U'll never make a cheater out of me

Cool 2gether, yes, eye must admit
Long time ago, we'd be the shh... uh oh
Like Frank and Ava, we'd paint the town
Just on the floor, gettin' way down
Dom Perignon and caviar
The finest clothes and fancy cars
U know, one of them '56 pink caddies, baby!

Lolita
U're sweeter
but U'll never make a cheater out of me
Ur eyes Ur mouthUr curly hair
U're bad no doubt
But eye must beware

Lolita U're sweeter
But eye won't mislead ya
Eye'll feed ya, if it'll please ya
But then eye'll say c ya
U're a fine, mama mia
But U'll never ever ever
No, U'll never ever ever
No, U'll never make a cheater out of me

Fellas! (yea?)
How bad is this girl? (bad!)
Then what U wanna do? (whatever u want!)
Then come on let's dance! (dance!) 2x

Lolita! (yea?)
How bad r u, girl? (bad!)
Then what u wanna do? (whatever u want!)
Then come on let's dance! (dance) 2x

Imagine me on the tip of Ur tongue
If eye took a sip then eye would be on the run
Hellhounds barkin' 'round my door
Eye can't sip U once 'less eye sip U some more

Lolita
Better get out of here
'Less U wanna dance

Beautiful, loved and blessed

Wake up
Ur beautiful, loved and blessed
Feel me? (I think I do)

When U found me I was just a piece of clay
I was 4mless, U gave me a new name
With the breath of life I now live abundantly
All I needed was the potter's hand
And the blood on Calvary (that's right)

But 2 much power (tell it)
Can can sometimes turn 2 shame
2 much desire
Sometimes makes U feel the same (come on)
But 4giveness is how U win the game
I begged 4 truth, now I know the truth
And that is when U came and said I was...

Beautiful, loved and blessed
I'm better than the day b4
Cause U made me confess that I am...
Beautiful, loved and blessed
When U're free U're really free indeed
All U gotta do is just plant the seed

A constant battle 2 stay ahead of the game
Is anybody famous when everybody wants fame?
Always trying 2 break U down
Thinkin' that'll raise 'em up
I just wanna b happy
Come take this bitter cup from me

If I were ever 2 write my life story
I could truly say through all the pain and glory
I was just a piece of clay in need of the potter's hand
Cause when U whispered in my ear
The words I so now understand, oh...

Beautiful, loved and blessed
I'm better than the day b4
Cause U made me confess that I am...
Beautiful, loved and blessed
When U're free U're really free indeed
All U gotta do is just plant the seed

Everything U made U said, "That's good"
B4 the fall of man U said, "That's good"
Everytime I walk in faith, that's good
U let me see another day, that's good
B4 the earth was made U said,
"Tamar, I will lead the way and U'll go far"
Knowledge and understanding
Understanding is good
And when I wake up in the morning
All I hear in my hood is people saying that they're...

Beautiful, loved and blessed
When U rescue me from the darkness
And our heart just must confess
Beautiful, loved and blessed
When U're free U're free indeed
All U gotta do is just plant the seed

Hey, hey, hey
Wake up it's a new day
Hey, hey, hey
Wave Ur hands in the air and say
Hey, hey, hey
Wake up it's a new day
Hey, hey, hey
Wave Ur hands in the air and say

Beautiful, loved and blessed
U rescued me from the darkness in the wilderness
But I am beautiful, loved and blessed
No matter what the challenge
I always pass the test

That's what I am, beautiful
That's what I am, beautiful
I don't mean 2 put nobody down
Still I must confess that I am...
Beautiful, that's what I am
That's what I am
When U wanna give up, don't cause U know
U always got a friend

That's what I am, that's what i am
Thats' what I am
Beautiful, beautiful
That's what I am, that's what i am
Thats' what I am
Beautiful, beautiful
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful

Love

Stop telling me what U want me 2 hear
Stop telling me what U want me 2 fear
Stop trippin' on something U overheard
Love is winning without a word
Stop giving me Ur "wish list"
Love is free from all this

Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops
Love is like the sky, U know it never stops
From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks
Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b

Love is not a game U can play on the floor
U gotta stop keepin' score
If U wanna, If U want 2 play me like U did b4
U better stop and walk out the door
U can skate around the issue if U like
But who's gonna get U high in the middle of the night?

Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops
Love is like the sky, U know it never stops
From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks
Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b

I c U standing with Ur back on the wall
U better, better get Ur hands up and clap if that's all
And uh, if U don't wanna get Urs, then let me get mine
See, ain´t gonna b no drama 'cause we have a good time

What's the point of giving me ultimatums?
Smiling at my friends when U really hate'em
Trying 2 convince me that eye should 2...
What's the point?

Stop worryin' about what people say
When it ain't gonna stop them anyway
Love can do anything if U try
Come on... Spread Ur wings... Let's fly, fly so high

Flyin' over the hilltops
Love is like the sky, U know it never stops
From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks
Love is whatever... whatever... whatever...

Like a bird flyin' over the hilltops
Love is like the sky, U know it never stops
From the abudance of the heart the mouth speaks
Love is whatever... whatever... U want it 2 b

Whatever U want it 2 B
Alright
Let's skate

I c U standing with Ur back on the wall
Better get Ur hands up and clap if that's all
If U don't wanna get Urs, then let me get mine
See, ain't gonna b no drama 'cause we have a good time

Bounce
Aww, shake that thing, c'mon
Ahh, bounce it baby
Aww, shake that thing c'mon
Good god

The beautiful ones

Com vocês, a letra da melhor balada de todos os tempos. O trecho final eu tive que colocar em fonte huge e caixa alta porque ele grita tanto isso, tanto, mas tanto, tão desesperadamente, e se joga no chão... que ia ficar uma transcrição muito pouco fidedigna se eu não colocasse esse trecho dum jeito berrante. Escute a música e/ ou veja o filme e depois diga se eu tô exagerando.


Baby, baby, baby
What's it gonna B?
Baby, baby, baby
Is it him or is it me?
Don't make me waste my time
Don't make me lose my mind baby

Baby, baby, baby
Can't U stay with me 2night?
Oh baby, baby, baby
Don't my kisses please U right?
U were so hard 2 find
The beautiful ones, they hurt U everytime

Paint a perfect picture
Bring 2 life a vision in one's mind
The beautiful ones
Always smash the picture
Always everytime

If I told U baby
That I was in love with U
Oh baby, baby, baby
If we got married
Would that B cool?

U make me so confused
The beautiful ones
U always seem 2 lose

Baby, baby,
Baby, baby,
Baby, baby,
Baby,
What's it gonna B baby?

DO U WANT HIM?
OR DO U WANT ME?
CAUSE I WANT U!!
SAID I WANT U!
TELL ME, BABE!
DO U WANT ME?
I GOTTA KNOW, I GOTTA KNOW!
DO U WANT ME?
BABY, BABY, BABY
LISTEN 2 ME
I MAY NOT KNOW WHERE I'M GOING BABY
(BABE!)
I SAID I MAY NOT KNOW WHAT I NEED
ONE THING, ONE THING'S 4 CERTAIN BABY
I KNOW WHAT I WANT, YEAH
AND IF IT PLEASE U, BABY
PLEASE U, BABY
I'M BEGGING DOWN ON MY KNEES!!!
I WANT U!!!
YES I DO!!!
BABY, BABY, BABY, BABY!!!!!
I WANT YOU!!!!

YES I DO!!!

If I can't have you (I don't want nobody baby)

(Kim Wilde)

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh...

Don't know why
I'm surviving every lonely day
When there's got to be
No chance for me

My life would end
And it doesn't matter how I cry
My tears of love
Are a waste of time

If I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh...

Can't let go
And it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily
To you my love

To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh...

No body body....
If I can't have you
No body body....

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody baby
If I can't have you, oh oh oh...

Can't seem to make you mine















I can't seem to make you mine
Kissing all around all the time
Flying around like a bee
Hurtin' everything you see

I try everything I know, oh
To make you wanna love me so, oh
The only things you do, oh
Is try to put the hurt on me, oh

Can't you see what you're doin' to me?
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath every step I take
I'm more in love with you

Oh I can't go on like this
A little bit of love and not one kiss
I've gotta have your love every day
One never fade and stay, oh

Can't you see what you're doin' to me?
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath, every step I take
I'm more in love with you, oh

I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
Kissing all around all the time
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
Flying around like a bee
Hurting everything you see

I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine, oh
I can't seem to make you mine
I can't seem to make you mine.

Can't cry these tears

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

Can't find it in the Bible
Can't find it on TV
Can't find it in diamonds
There's something inside me that just went around it
Can't find it in music
Can't find it in my soul
Can't find it in chocolate
Oh babe I can't hide it
I can't even fight it


I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

There's no way she can kiss you the way that I do
I heard that you miss me
Oh you should be careful of whom you've been talking to
Ten long nights without you have taught me to be strong
I've cut all my losses
Think no more about it because I couldn't fight it

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

There was a time I thought I'd die
If you should ever leave me high and dry
And you don't want me anymore
It's time to settle the score

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of my temper I'm tired of the letters
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore
I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of my rope and it's time that I've taught you so
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

It's time to settle the score

You look so fine

You look so fine
I want to break your heart
And give you mine
You're taking me over

It's so insane
You've got me tethered and chained
I hear your name
And I'm falling over

I'm not like all the other girls
I can't take it like the other girls
I won't share it like the other girls
That you used to know

You look so fine...

Knocked down, cried out
Been down just to find out
I'm through living for you

I'm open wide
I want to take you home
We're wasting time
You're the only one for me

You look so fine
I'm like the desert tonight
Leave her behind
If you want to show me

I'm not like all the other girls
I won't take it like the other girls
I won't fake it like the other girls
That you used to know

You're taking me over, over and over
I'm falling over, over and over

Loving me one more time
Hide inside me tonight
Do what you want to do
Just pretend happy end
(Let me know let it show)

Ending with letting go
Ending with letting go
Ending with letting go

Let's pretend happy end
Let's pretend happy end
Let's pretend happy end
Let's pretend happy end

Sleep together

I got you crawling up a mountain
Hanging round my neck
I got you twisted round my finger
Crawling round my legs
The emptiness, the craziness
Satisfy this hungriness

Darling, how would it feel?

If we sleep together
Will you like me better
If we come together
We'd go down forever
If we sleep together
Will I like you better
If we come together
Prove it now or never

Make me a pretty person
Make me feel like I belong
Make me hard and make me happy
Make me beautiful

The emptiness, the craziness
Satisfy this hungriness

Darling, how would it feel?

If we sleep together
Will you like me better
If we come together
We'd go down forever
If we sleep together
Will I like you better
If we come together
Prove it now or never

If we sleep together
-- Nothing satisfies me baby --
If we sleep together
-- I'll wear something pretty baby --
If we sleep together
-- Give me what I crave now baby --
If we sleep together
-- Save the rest for later baby --
If we sleep together
-- You will drive me crazy baby --
If we sleep together
-- I save it all for you my baby --
If we sleep together
If we sleep together

Breaking up the girl

In a modern culture
My friend you must be careful
They've got million ways to kill you

In this dangerous world
There's an art to growing old
Taking chances
Magic happens

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

I am afraid there's much to be afraid of
Here today and gone tomorrow
Don't end up in the gutter
Just like the one before
You're just the same
You're such a loser

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

You've got to let her go because you're breaking up the girl
The girl

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

You're breaking up the girl
You're breaking up the girl
The girl

My lover's box

My lover's charms
Are in a box
Beneath my bed
And piece by piece
I'll cherish them
Until the end

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven

They burn my hand
Scar my face
And blind my eyes
I'll steal your breath
And throw away
What I despise

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven

Between these walls
And darkened halls
I've done my time
If I should die
Before I wake
Then you'll know why

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven (Piece by piece)

Send me an angel to love (Piece by piece)
I need to feel a little piece of heaven (Piece by piece)
Send me an angel to love (Piece by piece)
I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven (Piece by piece)

Piece by piece
Piece by piece
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel).

Nobody loves you

Watching the days slip by so fast
Knowing our fate has long been cast
Working our fingers to the bone
Cause nobody loves you when you’re gone

Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where all of my love comes pouring out.

You know you’ll always be my man
But grab yourself sweetness where you can
Cause sooner or later we’re going to die
Left to the dogs under the sky

I cracked a piece of broken glass

Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where waves of my love come tumbling out.
You say that all the good is gone
That I have forgotten who I am
Free as a bird
Wild as the wind
But somehow I cannot let you in

So like a rose

Baby thinks he's dying
Lost inside his bedroom
Mommy won't stop crying
And daddy's always working
There's no going back
There's no going back
There's no going back
On this one

Baby wakes up with the sun
While everyone is sleeping
He thinks he's going crazy
This could be the big one
There's no going back
There's no going back
There's no going back

Sleeping with ghosts
It's such a lonely experience
The stars are out tonight
Only they can hear you breathing

You're so like a rose
You're so like a rose
You're so like a rose
I wish you could stay here

Silence is golden

If I am silent then I am not real
If I speak up then no one will hear
If I wear a mask there's somewhere to hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins

If I raise my voice
Will someone get hurt?
And if I can't feel then I won't get touched
If no truths are spoken then no lies can hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins

Did you hear me speak
Do you understand
Did you hear my voice
Will you hold my hand
Do you understand me

Won't someone listen
Nobody gets in
My body's a temple
But nothing is simple
Silence is golden
I have been broken
Something was stolen
Safe in my own skin

Cherry lips

She gave you everything she had
But she was young and dumb
She'd just turned 21
She didn't care to hang around
So when the sh*t came down
why she was nowhere to be found
This life can turn a good girl bad
She was the sweetest thing
that you had ever seen

You're so such a delicate boy
In the hysterical realm
Of an emotional landslide
In physical terms

With your cherry lips and golden curls
You could make grown men gasp when you go walking past
And in your hot pants and high heels
They could not believe that such a body was for real
It seemed like rainbows would appear
Whenever you came near the clouds would disappear
Because you looked just like a girl
Your baby blues would flash and suddenly a spell was cast

You're so such a delicate boy
In the hysterical realm
Of an emotional landslide
In physical terms

You hold a candle in your heart
You shine the light on hidden parts
You make the whole world wanna dance
You bought yourself a second chance

Go baby go go
We're right behind you
Go baby go go
Yeah, we're looking at you
Go baby go go
Oh ,we're right behind you
Go baby go baby
Yeah, we're right behind you
Go baby go baby
Oh, we're right behind you
Go baby go baby
Yeah, we're looking at you
Go baby go baby
Oh, we're right behind you
Go baby go baby
Yeah, we're looking at you

You hold a candle in your heart
Go baby go go
You shine the light on hidden parts
Go baby go go
You make the whole world wanna dance
Go baby go go
You bought yourself a second chance
Go baby go baby go
Delicate boy
Go baby go baby go
In the hysterical realm
Go baby go baby go
Of an emotional landslide
Go baby go baby go
In physical terms
Go baby go go
Go

Yeah, we're looking at you
Go baby go go
Oh, we're right behind you

Thirteen

Won't you let me walk you home from school
Won't you let me meet you at the pool
Maybe Friday I can
Get tickets for the dance
And I'll take you.

Won't you tell your dad, "Get off my back"
Tell him what we said about Paint it, black
Rock 'n Roll is here to stay
Come inside where it's okay
And I'll shake you.


Won't you tell me what you're thinking of.
Would you be an outlaw for my love
If it's so, well, let me know
If it's "no," well, I can go.
I won't make you.
