il quadrato e il cerchio
paolo conte
e frecce gialle e nere
attraversare spazi lunghi
e larghi in un quadrato ingordo mentre io …
… pensavo al cerchio che
nessuno vede, ma si sente
fremere e vibrare come
un lago indiano d’aria, ecco io …
gialli e neri… nuovi ricchi
arrivati ieri in fretta e furia
cosa penso io?..
lontanamente indiano, forse
un capo o una comparsa al cine,
cosa voglio io?..
ah, fatemi lavare
ah, fatemi nuotare
ah, ah, ah, fatemi svanire
il tempo è un cerchio che finisce
la dove comincia.. neanche una fessura lo interrompe come
quando penso io..
dico del mio silenzio indiano
un dialetto di lontani specchi
e nuvole parlanti, è così
che scrivo io…
ah, fatemi asciugare
ah, fatemi scaldare
ah, ah, ah, fatemi svanire
raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin’ seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin’ on my head, they keep fallin’
So I just did me some talkin’ to the sun
And I said I didn’t like the way he got things done
Sleepin’ on the job
Those raindrops are fallin’ on my head, they keep fallin’
But there’s one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me won’t defeat me
It won’t be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turnin’ red
Cryin’s not for me
‘Cause I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin’
Because I’m free
Nothin’s worryin’ me
It won’t be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turnin’ red
Cryin’s not for me
‘Cause I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin’
Because I’m free
Nothin’s worryin’ me
non potevo metterli TUTTI…
something
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe her now
Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don’t need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
Don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe her now
You’re asking me will my love grow
I don’t know, I don’t know
You stick around now it may show
I don’t know, I don’t know
Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
Don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe her now
let it be
1970
speaking words of wisdom
When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. Yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.
And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me,
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

nothing’s gonna change my world
j. lennon
bono, norah jones, stevie wonder
beatles, 1969
words are flowing out like endless rain
into a papercup,
they slither while they pass,
they slip away across the universe.pools of sorrow, waves of joy
are drifting through my opened mind,
possessing and caressing me.
jai guru deva – om.
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world.
images of broken light which dance before me
like a million eyes,
they call me on and on across the universe.
thoughts meander like a restless wind
inside a letterbox,
they tumble blindly
as they make their way across the universe.
jai guru deva – om.
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world.
sounds of laughter, shades of earth
are ringing through my opened ears,
inciting and inviting me.
limitless, undying love
which shines around me like a million suns,
it calls me on and on across the universe.
jai guru deva – om.
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world,
nothing’s gonna change my world.
jai guru deva,
jai guru deva,
jai guru deva,
jai guru deva,
