Just as you are - Robert Wyatt & Mónica Vasconcelos
[Monica Vasconcelos]
It's that look in your eyes
Telling me lies
So many promises broken
What can I do?
What should I do?
Try to love you just as you are
'cause I'm never going to change a thing about you
Never ever going to change a thing about you
Try to love you just as you are
Should I leave, Should I stay
Should I call it a day
There's so much to say that's unspoken
In your way you've been true
But all I can do
Try to love you just as you are
'cause I'm never going to change a thing about you
No I'm never ever going to change a thing about you
Try to love you just as you are
[Robert Wyatt]
It's that look in your eyes
I know you despise me
For not being stronger
What can I do?
What should I do?
I've always loved you just as you are
And I've never tried to change a thing
Never tried to change a thing about you
Always loved you just as you are
Will you leave, will you stay?
There may come a day
When I'm weak and I'm stupid no longer
In my way I've been true
I've lived just for you
I've always loved you just as you are
I've never tried to change a thing
Never tried to change a thing about you
Always loved you just as you are

Try to love you just as you are

Fixando-se profundamente na negritude daquele olhar magnético, questionou-o:
- E como saberemos se é essa a pessoa certa?
Sem por um só momento afastar o olhar envolvente, o Petit Prince - continuava a gostar que o chamasse assim - foi, como sempre, surpreendente:
- Saberás. Acredita-me.
A pausa, matematicamente premeditada, fez-se sentir como uma pedra quebrando a aparente quietude das águas mortas de um lago em hibernação.
Ainda como que sob o efeito das ondas formadas pela acção da pedra - e como as sentia, nessa noite! - ouviu-o:
- A pessoa certa para ti, nessa altura, será aquela que fará crescer em ti uma vontade incontrolável de lhe cantares o "Just as you are" do Robert Wyatt...

Leio este bonito post e recordo as palavras de Cecilia Meireles:
"Há pessoas que nos falam e nem as escutamos, há pessoas que nos ferem e nem cicatrizes deixam mas há pessoas que simplesmente aparecem em nossas vidas e nos marcam para sempre."
E no encontro de um olhar, mudamos...
oi mano...não nos mudam, a vida muda-nos. E, por vezes, a pessoa certa tá ali à distância de um olhar mas muito longe de nós. Então temos que viver o resto da vida marcados pela falta da loucura de que se falava no outro dia... bjinhos.
Boa noite, TsiWari. 23 horas e 56...Passei e tive a tal vontade de ouvir...Vou continuar a ouvir.
Bom dia.
Bem bonito o poste e a música. Entre o tempero do perú e outros afazeres vim aqui para desejar um FELIZ NATAL e um ano 2008 cheio de coisas boas.
Festas Felizes
Assim na Terra
Como no Coração!
Até sempre!
"Porque quem ama nunca sabe o que ama/
Nem sabe por que ama, nem o que é amar…/Amar é a eterna inocência,
E a única inocência não pensar…"
(F. Pessoa- Alberto Caeiro)
