Cowboy junkies - Thunder Road


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHQmHvxRzqw

Lletra ( original de Bruce Springsteen)

The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey, that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again
Don't run back inside, darling, you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're alright
Oh, and that's alright with me
You can hide 'neath your covers and study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now, I ain't no hero, that's understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey, what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair
Well, the night's busting open, these two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back, heaven's waiting on down the tracks
Oh oh, come take my hand
We're riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh oh oh oh, Thunder Road
Oh, Thunder Road, oh, Thunder Road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey, I know it's late, we can make it if we run
Oh oh oh oh, Thunder Road
Sit tight, take hold, Thunder Road
Well, I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talk
And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The door's open but the ride ain't free
And I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoken
But tonight we'll be free, all the promises'll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of burned-out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines rolling on
But when you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind
So Mary, climb in
It's a town full of losers, I'm pulling out of here to win

 Traducció lliure:

Deixa'm

Digues-me per què penses
Estem junts i estàs sol
Les persones es troben perdudes en la mar
I vas costa avall, te'n vas.
Demostra que el teu cor està ple
Així demostra que no tens res a afegir
Qui l'hàbit de patir des de sempre  

tota la seva vida el seu foc encén

deixa'm, deixa'm

deixa'm plorar sobre les meves decisions
deixa'm, deixa'm
Deixa'm plorar sobre la meva sort
deixa'm, deixa'm
deixa'm plorar sobre les meves decisions
deixa'm, deixa'm deixa'm plorar sobre la meva sort

Veient la gent com és feliç
Veient la gent com ara juga
Mirant el cel, ara que és clar 

El teu cel està ennuvolat
aquell a qui la vida li ha somrigut
I li va donar més
també plora com tu
i suporta el seu patiment

deixa'm, deixa'm
deixa'm plorar sobre les meves decisions
deixa'm, deixa'm
Deixa'm plorar sobre la meva sort
deixa'm, deixa'm
deixa'm plorar sobre les meves decisions
deixa'm, deixa'm deixa'm plorar sobre la meva sort

Caroline - Jamie Commons

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uha6Gjy7sg8

lletra

Raise me up
I've fallen so low
Too far from your eyes
Too far from your grace
Still you would ask more from me
And I break myself on your walls
Time again

Oh Caroline
Can't you hear me calling you
From the night
From the day
Calling you

Take these dreams quietly talking
Life I lay with these hands
Forcibly crying
Lay me down
Deftly I try so when will you rest on my soul
Never again

Oh Caroline
Can't you hear me calling you
From the night
From the day

Oh Caroline
Can't you hear me calling you
From the night
From the day
Calling you

Piper at the Gates of Dawn - Van Morrison

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5NHEP3Pm58

lletra

The coolness of the riverbank
And the whispering of the reeds
Daybreak is not so very far away
Enchanted and spellbound
In the silence they lingered
And rowed the boat
As the light grew steadily strong
And the birds were silent
As they listened for the heavenly music
And the river played the song
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The song dream happened and the cloven hoofed piper
Played in that holy ground
Where they felt the awe and wonder
And they all were unafraid of the great God pan
And the wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
When the vision vanished
They heard a choir of birds singing
In the heavenly silence, between the trance and the reeds
And they stood upon the lawn and listened to the silence
Of the wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
Its the wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
And the piper at the gates of dawn

Across the Bridge Where Angels Dwell - Van Morrison

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-6jwxqA_vg&list=PLBB44A9D3B4DB9A07

Lletra

Across the bridge where angels dwell
Across the bridge where angels
Across the bridge where angels dwell
Children play

Beyond the place where time is still
Beyond the place where time is
Beyond the place where time is still
Night is day

Close your eyes in fields of wonder
Close your eyes and dream
Close your eyes in fields of wonder
Close your eyes and dream

Along the path where heaven lies
Along the path where heaven
Along the path where heaven lies
All is clear

Ahead where home awaits the heart
Ahead where home is waiting
Ahead where home awaits the heart
Peace is near

Close your eyes in fields of wonder
Close your eyes and dream
Close your eyes in fields of wonder
Close your eyes and dream

Across the bridge where angels dwell
Across the bridge where angels
Across the bridge where angels dwell
Children play

I want you. Tom Waits

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb0jsseh9J8

Lletra

I want you, you, you
All I want is you, you, you
All I want is you
Give you the stars above, Sun on the brightest day
Give you all my love, if you would only say
I want you, you, you
All I want is you, you, you
All I want is you

Traducció lliure :

Et vull a tu
Tot el que vull ets tu
Tot el que vull és en tu
Vull donar-te les estrelles del cel i

el sol al dia més brillant
Vull donar-te tot el meu amor, només dient
que et vull a tu
que tot el que vull ets tu
que tot el que vull és en tu
