Juro que tentei, mas o blog estava dando pau e somente agora estou conseguindo postar alguma coisa. Eu sei, eu sei eu fiquei devendo a canção de quinta-feira, mas acho que quinta-feira não é um dia tão musical assim ;-) pq. não consegui lembrar de imediato nenhuma que fizesse jus ao dia, até achei uma música chamada Thursday, mas não curti a letra, e tem aquela do Charlie Brown Jr que tb. se chama quinta-feira, mas tb. não era essa. Então resolvi postar uma canção que eu não conhecia, e que veio numa fita que a Adri gravou pra mim do R.E.M. (quatro anos atrás (the time really flies). Ela se chama Nightswimming.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago,
turned around backwards so the windshield shows.
Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse.
Still, it's so much clearer.
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
The moon is low tonight.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
I'm not sure all these people understand.
It's not like years ago,
The fear of getting caught,
of recklessness and water.
They cannot see me naked.
These things, they go away,
replaced by everyday.
Nightswimming, remembering that night.
September's coming soon.
I'm pining for the moon.
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
could not describe nightswimming.
You, I thought I knew you.
You I cannot judge.
You, I thought you knew me,
this one laughing quietly underneath my breath.
Nightswimming.
The photograph reflects,
every streetlight a reminder.
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night.
