Dia de relembrar Seattle. :) And something else.
Assisti esse filme, Love Happens, antes de viajar pra WA há alguns anos. Quando liguei a TV hoje, ele estava passando em alguns dos Telecines... As paisagens que vi durante 3 meses e que tanto me encantaram me fizeram prestar mais atenção no filme. Resultado: nostalgia total. E não apenas da cidade...

"When one thing ends, something else begins."

I happen to hate New year's celebrations. Everybody desperate to have fun. Trying to celebrate in some pathetic little way. Celebrate what? A step closer to the grave?


That's why I can't say enough times, whatever love you can get and give, whatever happiness you can filch or provide, every temporary measure of grace, whatever works.


And don't kid yourself, it's by no means all up to your own human ingenuity. A bigger part of your existence is luck than you'd like to admit.


Christ, you know the odds of your father's one sperm from the billions, finding the single egg that made you? Don't think about it, you'll have a panic attack.

Woody Allen é mesmo um fofo. E é mesmo um gênio. Que recado! ;) Melhor cena, filme incrível.

CLOSING TIME

Closing time, open all the doors
And let you out into the world
Closing time, turn all of the lights on
Over every boy and every girl
Closing time, one last call for alcohol
So finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

Closing time, time for you to go out
To the places you will be from
Closing time, this room won't be open
Till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move into the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, every new beginning
Comes from some other beginning's end.

De todas as músicas que eu tenho postado ultimamente e que, com certeza, dizem MUITO sobre minha fase e o sobre o momento, essa é a top one. Pronto. Decidi. Closing time... A decisão não foi minha, não fui eu quem desisti... As duas opções são muito dolorosas, mas continuar esperando é injusto, é tornar a dor um sofrimento. Já que é pra ser assim, então é assim.
"Quero que você seja melhor, hei de ser melhor também".

I'm still looking up...

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Theres so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not
And who I am...

E o misto de sensações continua. Hoje a minha vontade é essa: não desistir. E amanhã?

"It's always darkest before the dawn"

Regrets collect like old friends

Here to relive your darkest moments

I can see no way, I can see no way

And all of the ghouls come out to play

And every demon wants his pound of flesh

But I like to keep some things to myself

I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind

I can never leave the past behind

I can see no way, I can see no way

I'm always dragging that horse around

All of his questions, such a mournful sound

Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

So I like to keep my issues drawn

But it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

It's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah

And I am done with my graceless heart

So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn...

Quando a gente vai aprender a deixar o passado onde ele tem que estar? Mais uma música pra coleção dessa fase que insiste em demorar tanto a passar... Incrível como todo mundo tem as mesmas sensações, né?! Não importa onde, não importa por que...

it's just like you to come and go...

Well it's a big big city and it's always the same
Can never be too pretty, tell me your name
Is it out of line if I were simply bold to say "Would you be mine"?

Because I may be a beggar and you maybe the queen
I know I maybe on a downer I'm still ready to dream
Now it's 3 o'clock the time is just the time it takes for you to talk

So if you're lonely why'd you say you're not lonely
Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me no you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you's just irresistible

Well it's a big big city and the lights are all out
But it's much as I can do you know to figure you out
And I must confess, my hearts in broken pieces
And my heads a mess
And it's 4 in the morning, and I'm walking alone
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong
And it's you, woo hoo
That's got me going crazy for the things you do

So if you're crazy, I don't care you amaze me
But you're a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
A boy like me's just irresistible

Fala sério, depois de tantos anos sem ouvir essa música, ouvi e hoje eu sei por que gosto dela. :) Adorei!

...

Depois de sonhar tantos anos,
de fazer tantos planos
de um futuro pra nós.
Depois de tantos desenganos,
nós nos abandonamos como tantos casais.
Quero que você seja feliz
Hei de ser feliz também.

 Depois de varar madrugada
esperando por nada de arrastar-me no chão, em vão.
Tu viraste-me as costas,
não me deu as respostas que eu preciso escutar.
Quero que você seja melhor 
Hei de ser melhor também.

Nós dois já tivemos momentos,
mas passou nosso tempo.
Não podemos negar, foi bom.
Nós fizemos histórias pra ficar na memória e nos acompanhar.
Quero que você viva sem mim
Eu vou conseguir também.

Depois de aceitarmos os fatos,
vou trocar seus retratos pelos de um outro alguém.
Meu bem, vamos ter liberdade
para amar à vontade sem trair mais ninguém.
Quero que você seja feliz
Hei de ser feliz também.
Depois.

Quando a gente sabe que chegou a hora de desistir? A questão fica martelando de forma incômoda, e até injusta, na minha cabeça. Afinal de contas, tanta coisa não depende só de mim. É tão difícil apenas aceitar e entender que não há mais nada que eu possa fazer. Depois de 3 meses, o depois ainda não chegou pra mim. Acho que o melhor que eu posso fazer é querer ser melhor. E desejar isso pra você também!
Essa música parece que foi feita pra gente... :)
