Michael Jackson - With a child's heart (1973)



Hoy me he despertado con el pie izquierdo. Qué injustos son los sentimientos y cómo nos complicamos la existencia. Ojalá pudiéramos ser como niños.

With a child’s heart
go face the worries of the day
with a child’s heart
turn each problem into play
no need to worry, no need to fear
just being alive makes it all so very clear

With a child’s heart
nothing can ever get you down
with a child’s heart
you’ve got no reason to frown
love is as welcome
as a sunny, sunny day
no grown up thoughts
to lead our hearts astray

Take life easy, so easy, nice and easy
like a child, so gay and so carefree

The whole world smiles with you
as you go your merry way

Oh, with a child’s heart
nothing’s gonna get
nothing’s gonna get
nothing’s gonna get me down

Oh, with a child’s heart
nothing’s gonna get
nothing’s gonna get
nothing’s gonna get me down

Craig David - Key to my heart (2000)



Qué vivos son los recuerdos cuando están asociados a una canción... y aquí estoy, recordando.


Lonely hours, lonely days
never meant to drive you away from me
I should have listened to you lady and what you had to say, If only...
I never knew how much you feel for somebody after you've let them go (let them go)
and you find out that it's too late to let your feelings show (feelings show)
and even though I've done you so wrong
don't you know, like I know, baby

You see you've got the key to my heart, girl
unlock me and take all my feelings apart
'cause when you said you had to leave, had to go away
you closed the door on me, you threw away the key

I'm starting over, I'm feeling down
still can't believe that you're not around
I should have been there for you, baby
but now I'm crying on this melody tonight

I didn't realize that there is no other remedy to end this pain (end this pain)
but if you come back in my life then maybe I can start to live again (live again)
and even though you're being so strong
don't you know, like I know, baby

[...]


And everyday and night I'm thinking about you constantly
now I know for sure how much you really mean to me, yeah
sometimes I get a rush and I see, how we were meant to be, lady

You see you've got the key to my heart, key to my heart girl
unlock me and take all my feelings apart
'cause when u said you had to leave, had to go away
you closed the door on me; you threw away the key

Sam Cooke - Wonderful world (1958)



A pesar de las incertidumbres y dudas que nos acompañan en la vida, siempre hay cosas que se tienen muy claras.





Don't know much about history
don't know much biology
don't know much about science book
don't know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you
and I know that if you love me too
what a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
don't know much trigonometry
don't know much about algebra
don't know what a slide rule is for

But I do know one and one is two
and if this one could be with you
what a wonderful this would be

I don't claim to be an "A" student
but I'm trying to be
for maybe my being an "A" student baby
I can win your love for me

Michael Jackson - Stranger in Moscow (1995)


Hoy es el día perfecto para quedarse en casa tirada en el sofá, enrollada en una manta... y escuchando esta canción.


I was wandering in the rain
mask of life, feelin' insane
swift and sudden fall from grace
sunny days seem far away
Kremlin's shadow belittlin' me
Stalin's tomb won't let me be
on and on and on it came
wish the rain would just let me be

How does it feel
how does it feel
how does it feel
when you're alone
and you're cold inside

Here abandoned in my fame
armageddon of the brain
KGB was doggin' me
take my name and just let me be
then a begger boy called my name
happy days will drown the pain
on and on and on it came
in the rain, and again, and again
take my name and just let me be

How does it feel
how does it feel
[...] when you're alone
and you're cold inside

[...]

Like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord have mercy)
like a stranger in Moscow
(Lord have mercy)
we're talkin' danger
we're talkin' danger baby
like a stranger in Moscow
[...] I'm livin' lonely
I'm livin' lonely, baby
a stranger in Moscow

Roxette - Fading like a flower (everytime you leave) (1990)



In a time where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
to find a heart that's made of stone

I will try, I just need a little time
to get your face right out of my mind
to see the world through different eyes

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
but when we meet it seems I can't let go
every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

Tell me why
when I scream there's no reply
when I reach out there's nothing to find
when I sleep I break down and cry
cry, yeah

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
but when we meet it seems I can't let go
every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

Fading like a rose
fading like a rose
beaten by the storm
talking to myself
getting washed by the rain
it's such a cold cold town
oh, it's a such cold town

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
but when we meet it seems I can't let go
every time you leave the room I feel I'm fading like a flower

Robbie Williams - You know me (2009)



If a man could beat his own fancy
then to only breed in captivity
is pointless
I’ve been doing what I like when I like how I like it’s joyless
only you know me

What a waste of all this peace,
baby steps and two more sleeps
till I get to say sorry
I get hysterical, historical; of love is just chemical
give us something to stop me
only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
you don’t know cos you’re not there
you simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away
only you know me

I’m doin’ fine
and the sun often shines
what are you thinking?
at the worst of my mind
with this thunderbird wine
baby, I’m drinking
only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
you don’t know cos you’re not there
you simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away
only you know me
only you know me

Celine Dion - I'm alive (2002)





Mmmmm ... Mmmmm ...
I get wings to fly
oh, oh ... I'm alive ... Yeah

When you call on me
when I hear you breathe
I get wings to fly
I feel that I'm alive

When you look at me
I can touch the sky
I know that I'm alive

When you bless the day
I just drift away
all my worries die
I'm glad that I'm alive

You've set my heart on fire
filled me with love
made me a woman on clouds above

I couldn't get much higher
my spirit takes flight
'cause I am alive

When you call on me
(when you call on me)
when I hear you breathe
(when I hear you breathe)
I get wings to fly
I feel that I'm alive
(I am alive)

When you reach for me
(when you reach for me)
raising spirits high
God knows that...

That I'll be the one
standing by through good and through trying times
and it's only begun
I can't wait for the rest of my life
When you call on me
(when you call on me)
when you reach for me
(when you reach for me)
I get wings to fly
I feel that...

When you bless the day
(when you bless, you bless the day)
I just drift away
(I just drift away)
all my worries die
I know that I'm alive

I get wings to fly
God knows that I'm alive
