Che vuole questa musica,
stasera,
che mi riporta un poco
del passato.
La luna ci teneva
compagnia,
io ti sentivo mia, soltanto mia.
Soltanto mia!
Vorrei tenerti qui
vicino a me
adesso che fra noi
non c’e’ piu’ nulla.
Vorrei sentire ancor
le tue parole,
quelle parole che
non sento più.
Il mondo intorno a noi
non esisteva
per la felicità
che tu mi davi.
Che me ne faccio ormai
di tutti i giorni miei
se nei miei giorni
non ci sei più tu.
Che vuole questa musica,
stasera,
che mi riporta un poco
del passato.
Che mi riporta
un poco del tuo amore,
che mi riporta
un poco di te.
Che me ne faccio ormai
di tutti i giorni miei
se nei miei giorni
non ci sei piu’ tu.
Che vuole questa musica,
stasera,
che mi riporta un poco
del passato.
Che mi riporta
un poco del tuo amore,
che mi riporta
un poco di te.
Un poco di te!

vacanze di natale
m’addormo a culo apierto
perchè non m’addiverto
non m’addiverto mai
non stongo malamente
non ho passsato guai
no non mi diverto
non mi diverto mai
no non mi diverto
no non mi diverto mai
vacanze un poco estive
mi sdraio a uso lacierto
perchè non m’addiverto
non m’addiverto mai
mi chiavo un paio di cesse
bucchini ‘e spond’e’lietto
no non m’addivierto
non m’addivierto mai
no non m’addivierto
no non m’addivierto mai
no non m’addivierto
no non m’addivierto mai

from Lorca (1970)
When there’s wine in your belly
Love rhythm’s on your tongue
For you are a woman
And each man has been too young
But for me you were a lover
Gently under your cover
Your sheet reeks of odours
Oh i came here to hold and be held for a while
I’ve been drifting like a dream out on the sea
I’ve been drifting in between you and me
Everytime i think about you
I can’t remember what i said or did
Was right or wrong, you know i just don’t remember
All i wanna be is what you mean to me
All i wanna be is what you mean to me
Late last night as i dreamed in dizzy sunlight
I thought i heard your bare feet up the stairs
Just like a fool, just like a fool
I’ve been drifting
Like a dream out on the sea
I’ve been drifting in between what used to be

from Sea Change (2002)
We don’t have to worry
Life goes where it does
Faster than a bullet
From an empty gun
Turn yourself over
Loose change we could spend
Grinding down diamonds
Round, round, round the bend
People pushing harder
Up against themselves
Make their daggers sharper
Than their faces tell
Babe, it’s your time now
Loose change we could spend
Where we are going
Round, round, round the bend

from Bright Red (1994)
Last night I dreamed I died and that my life had
been rearranged into some kind of theme park.
And all my friends were walking up and down the boardwalk.
And my dead grandmother was selling
cotton candy out of a little shack.
And there was this big ferris wheel
about half a mile out in the ocean,
half in and half out of water.
And all my old boyfriends were on it.
With their new girlfriends.
And the boys were waving and shouting
and the girls were saying Eeek.
Then they disappeared under the surface of the water
and when they came up again they were laughing
and gasping for breath.
In this dream I’m on a tightrope
and I’m tipping back and forth trying to keep my balance.
And below me are all my relatives
and if I fall I’ll crush them.
This long thin line. This song line. This shout.
The only thing that binds me to the turning world below
and all the people and noise and sounds and shouts.
This tightrope made of sound
This long thin line made of my own blood.
Remember me is all I ask.
And if remembered be a task forget me.
Remember me is all I ask.
And if remembered be a task forget me.
This long thin line. This long thin line.
This long thin line. This tightrope.
Remember me is all I ask.
And if remembered be a task forget me.
This long thin line. This long thin line.
This long thin line. This tightrope.

Eli, Eli, Eli. Eli, Eli, Eli. A simple dog, with ears and nose, Eli, Eli, Eli. I don’t why nobody likes him, there’s some people trying to put him away. When he comes up to them, they always say ‘go away, go away, please take him home’. Make him stay. Eli, Eli, Eli. Eli, Eli, Eli. Several times I’ve tried to tell him ‘Please don’t make them say that’, but he won’t listen to me. Sometimes I pray that there could be more between us, but some people never are satisfied. Eli, Eli, Eli. Eli, Eli, Eli

Our music sounds,
The heart’s beat behind the waves
And there’s where you should tell him
how you feel
And it’s hard to be here
And it’s hard to be you
If you only
If you only
Could take something away
Our people, why
Do you think they run away from you?
You think you are the worst of kinds
Just because you long so much more
And I started to hurt myself
And in the dark times
In the dark times
The symphony Los Angeles
It’s so sad
It’s so sad
Naa—
Oh—-
I must have been dreaming
I must have been dreaming
With you, you, you
I can try, I can try to be low, low, low
with what I do, what I do
And you, you, you in my ears,
in my ears I’ve been told, told, told, to be low
And it had to be music first in my ears,
in my ears I’ve been told, told, told
to be low, to be low,
I’ve been told

selection #2 of Elijah Forrest/Terrors
from What We Did On Our Holidays (1969)
You may search at any cost
But how long can you search for what’s not lost?
Everybody will help you
Some people are very kind
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I’ll keep it with mine
I can’t help it, if you might think I’m odd
If I say I’m loving you, not for what you are, but for what you’re not
Everybody will help you
Discover what you set out to find
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I’ll keep it with mine
The train leaves at half past ten
But I’ll be back tomorrow at the same time again
The conductor, he’s weary
He’s still stuck on the line
But if I can save you any time
Come on, give it to me
I’ll keep it with mine
[original song by Bob Dylan]
