Nothing was Stolen (Love Me Foolishly)

                                                                                  Phosphorescent: caballitos para el alma.

Puedes amarme a loco o a lo suave. Cuando el tiempo no acompaña es mejor sentarse en el borde que buscar una caricia en el aire.

READ:

Well, apart from the things I touched
Nothing got broke all that much
And apart from the things I took
Nothing got stolen babe, and look
You can love me foolishly,
Love me foolish-like
Well I wake in the morning and dress
Hang a charm of gold around my neck
And I sip from my silver cup
And I sing these words for good luck
I sing, “Love me foolishly,
Love me foolish-like”
Well I wake in the morning and I dress
I hang that charm of gold around my neck
And I haul to her window and I look
And I crawl on inside and wake her up
Singing, “Love me foolishly,
Love me foolish-like”
So, apart from the things I touched
Nothing got broke all that much
And apart from the things I took
Nothing got stolen babe, and look:
You can love me foolishly
Love me foolish-like

I Couldn't Say It to Your Your Face

                                                                 Arthur Russell: el genio de la lámpara maravillosa.


No te lo pude decir a la cara, con tantos giros te perdí hasta la mirada. Ahora que te intento borrar, te empeñas en dibujar sonrisas hasta encima de mi cielo. No hay palabras ni canciones suficientes para volver a pronunciarlo. Así se escriben las novelas del recelo.

I couldn't say it to your face,

but I won't be around any more.
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.
I needed a place, so I walked in the door,
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.

It's my world, it's my song,
didn't ask you to sing along;
in my arms, you girl, you won't be here to say I'm wrong.

I couldn't say it to your face but I won't be around any more.I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.
I needed some space, so I walked out the door,
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.

I heard them say maybe some day I'd have to pay.
I don't say one word to you that you know
I'm going away.
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more.
I needed a place, so I walked in the door.
I couldn't say it to your face,
but I won't be around any more
