Purple Rain

I never meant 2 cause u any sorrow
I never meant 2 cause u any pain
I only wanted 2 one time see u laughing
I only wanted 2 see u laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

I only wanted 2 see u bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover
I only wanted 2 be some kind of friend
Baby I could never steal u from another
It’s such a shame our friendship had 2 end

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

I only wanted 2 see u underneath the purple rain

Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing
It’s time we all reach out 4 something new
That means u 2
U say u want a leader
But u can’t seem 2 make up your mind
I think u better close it
And let me guide u 2 the purple rain

Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain

If you know what I’m singing about up here
C’mon raise your hand

Purple rain purple rain

I only want 2 see u, only want 2 see u
In the purple rain

--Prince

If you cross your heart to someone
You`re not suposed to tell a lie

If you cross your heart to someone
You`re not suposed to tell a lie

Before you say wrong
Or either do wrong
It have to be so long
Or either...goodbye

The first time I crossed my heart
I was by your bedside on my knees

Yes, the first time I crossed my heart
I was by your bedside, down on my knees

And I know the difference between I and you,
I have to beg you
Please, darlin`, help...me...please

I cross my heart
For there's no one else I know
I cross my heart to you, to you baby, because I know
There`s no one else, I know
Anything you tell me to do
I have to do it or I`ll have to go

Cross my Heart

And the ice of her kisses lingers on and on
And the image of her body live
Yet you walked on black sand by the sea's turmoil
In the dark of a velvet night
Then you sat down and gave your hands to be kissed and loved
Could not you hear a gentle sigh
And by the stars part control of your wandering life
Do you believe in not telling lies
But it was good that you were warm on your way back home
Short love, goodbye

Cheiro de fruta na pele salgada
Praia de areia negra, bronzeada
No vento aroma distante, trovoada
Aqui não me falta nada.

The smell of fruit on the salty skin
Black sand beach, tan black skin
In the wind the distant smell of thunder
Here, I have everything.

Bat Makumba, "Tropic".

Everything I Have Is Yours


Everything I have...is yours
You are part of me
Everything I have...is yours
My destiny

I would gladly give the sun to you
If the sun were only mine
I would gladly give the earth to you
And the stars that shine

Everything that I posses
I offer you
Let my dream of happyness
Come through

I'll be happy just to spend, my life
Waiting at your beck and call
Everything I have, is yours
My life
My all

Well we all shine on
Like the moon and the stars and the sun
Well we all shine on
Ev'ryone come on

"The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies"

Way, way down inside, I’m gonna give you my love,
I’m gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.
Yeah! all right! let’s go!

Wanna whole lotta love?
Wanna whole lotta love?
Wanna whole lotta love?
Wanna whole lotta love?

Way down inside, woman,
You need love.

Shake for me, girl
I wanna be your backdoor man.
Hey, oh, hey, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Keep a-coolin’, baby,
Keep a-coolin’, baby.

Inch worm, inch worm
Measuring the marigolds
You and your arithmetic
You'll probably go far
Inch worm, inch worm
Measuring the marigolds
Seems to me you'd stop and see
How beautiful they are

When the child was a child
It woke up once in a strange bed
And now time and time again
Many people seem beautiful to it
And now not so many and now only if it's lucky
It had a precise picture of paradise
And now can only vaguely conceive of it at best
Song of Being a Child- Van Morrison
