there are times
i swear i know your here
when i forgot about my fears
feeling you my dear
watching over me
my hope sees
of what the future will bring
when you ride me on your wings
and take me…

where you are
where you and i will breathe together
once again will be dancing in the moonlight
just like we used to do
and you’ll be smilin back at me
only then will i be free
when i can be where you are

and i can see your face
your kiss i still can taste
not a memory erased

oh i see your star
shining down on me
and i’d do anything

if i could just be right there

where you are
where you and i will breathe together
once again will be dancing in the moonlight
just like we used to do
and you’ll be smilin back at me
only then will i be free
when i can be where you are

now baby there are times when selfishly
i wish that you are here with me
so i can wipe the tears from your eyes and make you see
that every night while you are dreaming
i’m here to guard you from a far

and anytime i feel alone i’ll close my eyes
and just be there where you are

where you are
where you and i will breathe together
once again will be dancing in the moonlight
just like we used to do
and you’ll be smilin back at me
only then will i be free
when i can be where you are

baby, i still believe
i still believe, i will touch you that sweet day
that you take me there, where you are
i still believe, oh got to believe
i still believe, i will touch you that sweet day
that you take me there, where you are
i still believe
i’ve got to believe
i’ll always be waiting here
that sweet day..

olen paar päeva laisk. see on ok.

Ostsin selle albumi täna puhtalt kaane järgi. Nii olen ma ostnud ka filme. Ja enam vähem alati läheb asi täppi. See on hea album. Natuke oleks nagu aasta 1994, kui MTV Chill Out Zone’i sai öösel kell neli kolmkümmend vaadatud. Väga retro tunne on sees.

Head nädalavahetust

You said I’m stubborn and I never give in
I think you’re stubborn ‘cept you’re always softening
You say I’m selfish, I agree with you on that
I think you’re giving up in way too much in fact

I say we’ve only known each other one year
You say: “Pffft, I know you longer, my dear”
You like to be so close, I like to be alone
I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor

Walking with each other
Think we’ll never match at all
But we do, but we do, but we do, but we do

I thought I knew myself, somehow you know me more
I have never known this, no, never before
You’re the first to make up whenever we are two
I don’t know who I’d be if I didn’t know you

You’re so provocative, I’m so conservative, and
You’re so adventurous, I’m so very cautious, combined
You think we would and we do
But we do, but we do, but we do

Favoritism ain’t my thing but
In this situation, I’ll be glad
Favoritism ain’t my thing but
I’ll be glad to make an exception

You said I’m stubborn and I never give in
I think you’re stubborn ‘cept you’re always softening
You say I’m selfish, I agree with you on that
I think you’re giving out in way too much in fact

I say we’ve only known each other one year
You say “Pfft, I know you longer, my dear”
You like to be so close, I like to be alone
I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor

Walking with each other
Think we’ll never match at all
But we do

The Roots on selline intelligentne räpigrupp. Ma näen albumi kaant lehes The Roots - “How I got Over” ja ma tean, et see on hea album. Midagi nagu sees ütleb, et see on hea. Nii on mul nendega ka ennem olnud. Minu esimene kokkupuude oli nende looga “You got Me” kus armas Erykah Badu refrääni laulis. Ka tolleaegse albumi nimi oli lihtne ja ilus - “Things Fall Apart.” Suurepärane muusikakollektiiv. Ikka ja jälle laulavad nad lihtsatest asjadest tumeda rütmi taustal, millega me kõik saame end seostada. Kuigi teemad ja viisid on sellised nukrad, ei tekita nende muusika nukrat tunnet. Pigem nagu elu peegelpilt, kus kohtad inimesi, kes samamoodi tunnevad ja sellest kõigest ilusasti rääkida (st laulda) suudavad. Aitäh.

Out on the streets (Yeah)

Where I grew up (ah-hah)

First thing they teach us: (uh)

Not to give a fuck (Yeah, C’mon baby)

That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (Oh ??)

Someone has to care.



How I got over

Where the people come apart

Don’t nobody care about cha

Only thing you got is God.

Out here in these streets

If you get down on your luck

You can stand up

With a hand down

But nobody give a fuck.

Out here in these streets

Every man is for himself

They Ain’t helpin’ noone else

It’s a hazard to your health.

Livin’ life in these cold streets.

(Hey) Whose worryin’ ‘bout cha babe

When you wiln’(?) out?

Runnin’ around in these streets.



Out on the streets

Where I grew up (How I got over)

First thing they teach us:

Not to give a fuck. (How I got over)

That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (How I got over)

Someone has to care. (Ya)



When you on the corners too much drama

Livin’ with the police right behind ja’

It’s always more than a slight reminda

We livin’ in a war zone like Rwanda.

Before I go back to the heavenly fatha

Pray for me if it ain’t too much botha.

Whatever don’t break me or make me stronga

I feel like I can’t take too much longa.

It’s too much lyin’

And too much fryin’

I’m all cried out cause I grew up cryin’

They all got a sales pitch I ain’t buyin’

They tryin’ to convince me that I ain’t tryin’.

We uninspired

We unadmired

And tired and sick of being sick and tired.

A living in the hood where the shots are fired

We dyin’ to live, so to live we dyin’.

You just like I am.



Out on the streets (Uh)

Where I grew up (How I got over)

First thing they teach us:

Not to give a fuck. (How I got over)

That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (Ya, somebody, somewhere)

Someone has to care. (Somebody’s gotta care)



And I swear it isn’t fair

In suspended animation

We ain’t tryin’ to go nowhere.

Out here in these streets

We’re so young and all alone

We ain’t even old enough to realize we’re on our own.

Livin’ life in these hard streets

Where it’s like they lost their mind

Is there anyway to find?

are we runnin’ out of time out here?

Listen, hey

Who’s worryin’ about cha babe

When you wiln’(?) out?

Runnin’ ’round in these streets.



Out on the streets (Uh)

Where I grew up (How I got over)

First thing they teach us:

Not to give a fuck. (How I got over)

That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere (Ya, somebody, somewhere)

Someone has to…



Out on the streets

Where I grew up

First thing they teach us:

Not to give a fuck

That type of thinking can’t get you nowhere

Someone has to care.

It’s alright
Forget what you don’t have
Forget that you don’t
Just forget it
Forget that you’re afraid
Forget that you are
Don’t panic
Forget that you’re alone
Everyone’s alone
Think about it

It’s alright
And when it ain’t easy
It’s just life
Don’t worry
It’s alright
We’re all in the dark
Looking for the light, the light
Don’t worry

Forget that you can’t love
Forget that you can’t
Just forget it
Forget the reasons why
Forget the reasons
Can you do that
Forget that you are lost
Everyone gets lost in the journey

It’s alright
And when it ain’t easy
It’s just life
Don’t worry
It’s alright
We’re all in the dark
Looking for the light, the light
Don’t worry

Stop take a look around you
Just stop maybe it’d be better
If you calm down
It’s alright….
