Why?

Daí, a mocinha da nova novela das seis da Globo me pergunta:

"Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?"

Daí, eu respondo:

"Pelo andar da carruagem, deve ser para cagar na minha cabeça..."

Ê, VIDA!

Are you lonesome tonight?

Cada dia eu acordo "um alguém". Já acordei Cartola, Vinicius, Noel (Noel, especificamente, eu acordo seguidamente). Já acordei também Fábio Jr., Magal, Roberto Carlos.

Hoje acordei Elvis. Mais exatamente, acordei "Are you lonesome tonight?". E hoje eu estou cabendo toda, toda nessa letra. Aí fui para o grande Youtube. E achei o quê? A Norah Jones perguntando se eu estou lonesome tonight. Pena que ela não faz a parte falada, quando The Pelvis diz que prefere ouvir mentiras a ficar sem a pessoa amada. Porque nessa hora eu vi a luz. É isso. Pelo menos por enquanto.

Are you lonesome tonight,
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

I wonder if youre lonesome tonight
You know someone said that the world is a stage
And each one must play a part.
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.
Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a clue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you wont come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
