This might actually be in the top most amazing songs I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. At once somber and sweet, nostalgic and hopeful, it touches on so many things that move your very soul. I am so happy to be on the planet at the same time as Caetano to hear his playing and his words.
Sometimes, in the silence of the night,
I sit and imagine us two
I sit here, daydreaming
Joining the before, the now, and the after
Why do you leave me so free?
Why don't you stick with me?
I'm feeling so alone
I'm not and I don't want to be your owner
But sometimes your love feels so good
I have my desires and secret plans
I only open to you, to no one else
Why do you forget me and disappear?
And if I become interested in someone?
And if she suddenly wins me?
When people like each other
It's clear that they care for each other
You say that you love me
But you don't mean it
Or you mess with me
Or you aren't ready
Where are you now?
When people like each other
It's clear that they care for each other
You tell me that you love me
But you don't mean it
Or you mess with me
Or you aren't ready
Iê iê iê iê iê
Where are you now?

A blog about music old and young
Intentions
This blog is intended to be a collection or catalogue of sorts, of music through the ages, that has inspired or moved me in one way or another. There is no precise method or chronology. Selfishly, it is a place where I can keep lyrics and performances - that I can view in one place quite easily -from anywhere in the world. That said, I hope it will be of some use to others, and perhaps even introduce some of what I consider to be the greatest singing and songwriting that I am aware of.
