Memórias

Recordo com nostalgia o início da minha adolescência. Que saudades! Todos os sonhos eram possíveis e como eu sonhava!
Esta música fez parte integrante da banda sonora de outros tempos e cruzou-se comigo ontem, por mero acaso, como tantas outras coisas na minha vida.
Eu era completamente louca por esta banda, apaixonada pelo vocalista e agora, com toda este distanciamento, percebo que, com o passar dos anos, muitas coisas deixam de fazer sentido e, algumas, ainda bem…mas outras, ah outras, deviam permanecer para sempre: o espírito irreverente e sonhador, o distanciamento do destino repleto de responsabilidades, a intensidade do desejo, o tempo que passava lentamente, o futuro em aberto, onde tudo (ainda) era possível e uma vida inteira à nossa frente.


Guns N' Roses - Estranged

When you're talking to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone...(alone)

So nobody ever told you baby, how it was gonna be
So What'll happen to you baby?
Guess we'll have to wait and see
...one, two....

Old at heart. But I'm only 28
And I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart. But it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart
I don't know how you're supposed to find me lately
And what more could you ask from me?
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me...

Young at heart. And it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart. But I mustn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out
Still talking to myself. And nobody's home.....(alone)

So nobody ever told us baby, how it was gonna be
So What'll happen to us baby?
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find all of the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe i'll get it right next time
And now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
You don't talk so loud, and you don't walk so proud
Anymore. and what for?

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own
Drifting all alone
If it doesn't show
Give it time to read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm is getting closer
And the waves, they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known is here
Why must it drift away and die?

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it through
This time, oh this time, without you
I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die
