Slow Motion

(verse 1)

smooth like a criminal

he gambles like a poker player

taking a step to come play with me

dancing in the rain

under a streetlight in the autumn

not caught up in any danger

sweeping me off my feet like you do

taking responsibility in a flash hurry

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

meeting and then falling

so fast, so quickly

an encounter in slow motion

leaving me alone

again at once

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

he can read all my predictable tell-tell signs

not putting up a front at all

my vulnerable heart craves that shape

that only love can provide

that summer love from so long ago

can't hold a candle to how you handle me

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

my body and soul

are your proud goal

rencounter our love motion

those words that were pretty

a trap, it was

(end chorus)

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

meeting and then falling

so fast, so quickly

an encounter in slow motion

leaving me alone

again at once

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

smooth like a criminal

he gambles like a poker player

taking a step to come play with me

Subject A

(verse 1)

ever since I was just seventeen years old

big-eyed and pretty just starting out in the world

everybody looks at me like oh how pretty and innocent

I want a bad streak but I can't cuz of imprisonment

wearing black and not picking up slack

but then being told to change

what's wrong with being a little bad?

if I continue on like this I'll go mad

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I'm pretty mature and I am in control

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know I am, I know I am, but I can handle it

I want to be sexy, I want to be perplexing

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

who cares if I can't get married

I want a romance that is so frenzied

who wants to settle down being this young and restless

just let this girl be crazy and reckless

deep in that burning heart

nothing can tear her apart from trickery

her parents are worried

but there's no reason to be sullied

she just wants to be free like that guy

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

who cares if I'm at that age

don't wanna be in cage

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know and you know but it can't be helped

I want to just be me, I want to be inspiring

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

(chorus)

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I'm pretty mature and I am in control

it's frustrating, it's so frustrating

I know I am, I know I am, but I can handle it

I want to be sexy, I want to be perplexing

just call me subject A

(end chorus)

1/2 Legend

(verse 1)

it's a secret deep in these parts

only told through street arts

that boy right over there is amazing

they say his hair cuts itself

word is he's dated every girl

ask her yourself

his heart is burning up with passion

(chorus)

it's all true, you know

that boy is a man

where he goes, danger leaves

he's just that fine

this one-half-legend fights with heart

so ferociously

saving the day is not easy

but the way he does it

makes it seem to be

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the youth that makes the heart restless

and yet so humble and selfless

he's our hometown hero

before you get going

it'd be wise not to challenge

he may look young, but he's bold

(chorus)

it's all true, I just know

that boy there is a man

where he goes, happily

I follow in line

this one-half-legend has my heart

so ferociously

saving the day is not easy

but the way he does it

makes it seem to be

(end chorus)

(chorus)

it's all true, you know

that boy is a man

where he goes, danger leaves

he's just that fine

this one-half-legend fights with heart

so ferociously

(end chorus)

North Wing

(chorus)

love is a mystery

it's all beneath me

it is a mystery

where does this power come from?

(end chorus)

(verse 1)

it is strange, no?

don't think badly of me

everything is mixed up

and confusing

everyone has fell in love once

possibly twice

except for me and you

in one minute

I will give in to you

my emotions are small and minute

much like the city

that confidence send it up to sky

(chorus)

dreams are ruined

I escape for the sake of me

visions are incomplete

leave me where I be

then I cry

love is a mystery

it's all beneath me

the light shines

and I'm fine

but it doesn't illuminate my mind

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

taking flight on

the north wing

closing my eyes

trying to relax with you

this street we're on

in this city will take us away

(chorus)

our future plans

with details in mind

then you went and ran

in the midnight, I cry

love is a mystery

words cannot fix

nor mortar and bricks

can repair our love and peace

(end chorus)

(chorus)

love is a mystery

it's all beneath me

it is a mystery

where does this power come from?

love is a mystery

forever mystery

love is a mystery

forever mystery

(end chorus)

Southern Wind

(verse 1)

in the unbridled wilderness

I lay down on my back

facing out at the blue sea

it's only paradise I see

feeling of the earth

wanting to sow and grow

something green

maybe it is just freedom

I crave and taste

looking for a new message

don't want to go to waste

being with nature

my soul will nurture

(chorus)

a white wind speaks to me from the south

telling me to run wild like a wolf

look up to the moon at night for your light

howl and find your footing

now you're ready

with your wild heart

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

in the summer live off the land

in the winter, sleep deeply and

when spring comes find what it is

that will keep you alive

(chorus)

it takes courage to live with the animals

going day to day without resisting

I want to embrace God's green earth

the southern wind at my back

I'm ready to head towards the north

(end chorus)

(chorus)

a white wind speaks to me from the south

telling me to run wild like a wolf

look up to the moon at night for your light

howl and find your footing

now you're ready

with your wild heart

(end chorus)

Commandment (1984)

(verse 1)

losing faith losing grip on a firm reality

where to go when I'm feeling lonely?

so what if my moral compass can't point me to

the north, south, or east I guess I'll just go west

(chorus)

it hurts, the wounds of time

but I fight on anyways

it burns, but I say righteous

playing dirty and winning

are the same thing isn't that right?

it's my commandment

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

I've lived without love for so long

so what is a few more decades?

a little something sweet to tide me over

but when I receive just one kiss

I want another

(chorus)

I'm happy, living in a closed world

the wilderness is my home

and I know, no man can sustain me

these tears that fall on their own

are my ten commandments

rules just for me

(end chorus)

(bridge)

tomorrow and the next day by day

I'll still be alone but that's alright

I am not scared of the night anymore

(chorus)

I'm strong, don't need a man

I can be all on my own

I'm free, it tastes savory

no more tears for all these years

I've got a long life left to live

I won't give up easily

it hurts, the wounds of time

but I fight on anyways

it burns, but I stay righteous

playing dirty and winning

are the same thing isn't that right?

it's my commandment

(end chorus)

My Tears Are No Decoration

(verse 1)

let's get one thing straight

even though your cheeks are wet

don't stop crying just because you saw my face

who said not to cry?

even if you try

bottling up all those feelings

ain't good for no one

at night when my feelings overcome me

grief catches up and it's emotional

I may be a woman but my tears strengthen me

I don't need the shoulder of a friend

I know the world's not at its end

I still I'm crying and trying

to show up

and give my support

(chorus)

my tears are no decoration, ha ha

it's me showing my adoration, ho ho

if I cry tears of sadness for you, ha ha

I'll be there to shed ones of happiness too

when things finally go your way, ho ho

ho ho ho ho ho ho

hoo hoo hoo, wow!

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

for the sake of me and yet nobody

sometimes it's just for me mentally

it's nobody's business why I'm feeling down

but here lately, I've been besides me

having all these problems

and no one wants to help

that's already, I don't blame you

but when you need somebody

just know I'll be that body

(chorus)

my tears are no decoration, ha ha

I'm just going through the motion, ho ho

life is an amusing roller coaster, ha ha

with ups and downs, twists and curves

laughs and tears

my tears are no decoration, ha ha

people use them for inspiration, ho ho

you're wrong if you think tears are weak, ha ha

it takes a strong person to cry, I swear

la la la la la la la la, ha ha

la la la la la la la, ho ho

la la la la la la, ha ha

la la la la la la la la la la

la la la la la la la la, ha ha

la la la la la la la, ho ho

la la la la la la, ha ha

(end chorus)

Meu Amor é...

(verse 1)

in the shadow, I take your hand

but it bleeds, when you pull away

nobody knows

the day will never come

when you'll forget that Latin dancer

when night befalls the quiet city

the kids come out to play

black eyes that surprisingly shine

make me wish our dull lives would rise and intertwine

it's magic, latatata

those songs in which you sang to me

with every strum of your guitar I fell in love

plotting my chance to make you adore

(chorus)

to love or to be loved

here at the carnival of dreams and wonders

it's splendid, on this night

say to me, or let it be said

if romance and passion will work at all

is it futile or brutal?

to dance or to be danced

do you want to tango

or kiss and let it go, amore?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the parade of the lonely

marches towards a grand game

a dream was smashed

just like a wine glass

that you threw like a magic shadow

the sky is filled with fireworks slightly

we samba so far away

but before I am forced to let you go

you show me tenderness and I feel low

(chorus)

orderly or to be ordered

you take control of my body

at the carnival all night long

it matters or it doesn't matter

here at the carnival

don't leave me standing here alone, amore

(end chorus)

(chorus)

to love or to be loved

here at the carnival of dreams and wonders

it's splendid, on this night

say to me, or let it be said

if romance and passion will work at all

is it futile or brutal?

to dance or to be danced

do you want to tango

or kiss and let it go, amore, amore, amore, amore?

(end chorus)

DESIRE -Passion-

(verse 1)

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

with that bad boy by my side

I'm getting ready to take a wild ride

into the unknown neon

a good girl should always know

not to flirt with temptation

but what's wrong with just one discotheque?

everybody wants me to be their angel

but when he presents himself as a cute devil

I give in

his past may be hazy

but as long as he's with me

surely, we can be simple lovers

(chorus)

impossible, baby

it's my desire

just tonight only

rev up my fire

baby, we can dance, dance, dance, dance

hold on tight for a hell of a night

and then, so beautifully

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning heart

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

in my pure kimono

 I entertain a sexy daimyo

I'm sorry, I can only say no

this careful, cautious girl

wants to break out of her shell

so she says what the hell

just this once, I'll follow him

the warnings are red and yellow

but she don't care

taking her by the hand

he causes a scandal scene

and she feels ecstasy

(chorus)

it's burning

passion flares

it's desire

losing herself

consumed in fire

for the first time in her life

she dances on the edge of a knife

intoxicated by his ability

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

(end chorus)

(chorus)

impossible, baby

it's my desire

just tonight only

rev up my fire

baby, we can dance, dance, dance, dance

hold on tight for a hell of a night

and then, so beautifully

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning heart

get up! get up! get up! get up!

get up! get up! get up! get up!

burning love

(end chorus)

TANGO NOIR

(verse 1)

in my diary a full page a day

I dedicate to my lovely

an obsession known to the bed where I lay

a hideaway

you do not even know

I look at the sky thinking of you

the one bet holding me back

is I know what I lack

the determination

to make a confession

if there's such a thing as destiny

why should I make an admission?

suitors come in suits and bring gifts

I turn them away bravely

with your obvious lonesome self

ahh, stay lonely

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

just a dreaming woman

that wants romance at night

billowing white curtains and a silhouette

of the man she loves

if anyone can hear this prayer from me

I want time to stop

that moment when he touched my hair tenderly

ahh, mystery

(chorus)

maybe you will, be the one to marry first

leaving me, behind in the dust

rose-colored, glasses on my face, I give you space

a parody, of the card game where we gambled

and placed bets on who would confess

it took you, walking away from my body, to end me

(end chorus)

(chorus)

maybe I will drink of that sweet poison

but only then, do you decide to kiss my red lips

and partake in this tragic fate, a mystery, right?

do you know, what I could consume you in?

a destiny, worse than a tango danced sadly

and yet you go, be the knight that saves my night, so gracefully

(end chorus)

Second Love

(verse 1)

it seems love was never meant to be

a little closer to me

that message that I can't see

your brilliant figure

blinds me in the dark

a scene that's too familiar

who knew after the first time

there wouldn't be a second

that feeling of sublime

evades me

(chorus)

way back in the dark

farther away from

a time where I was truly happy

and smiling

as I go I speed through life

letting no one share in my plight

still I fight

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

a mystery I cannot solve

notice me before I dissolve

a sweet tempting trap

you have around me

you did it so beautifully

led me on for years

just to see what color are tears

holding on in the midnight

not knowing what is right

before long we

will be so silly

(chorus)

way back in the dark

running out of time

the clock as it ticks

reminds me that I'm am sick

taking a walk on the bride side

goodbye to my comfort zone, it died

(end chorus)

(chorus)

way back in the dark

farther away from

a time where I was truly happy

and smiling

as I go I speed through life

letting no one share in my plight

still I fight

(end chorus)

Shipwreck

(verse 1)

gently gazing out on the shore

scent of sand around me

the mist is so thick I cannot see

plunging forward into a future I don't know

nor want to be acquainted

things fell apart

the cosmos was destroyed

chaos on the earth walked

and in my sadness I sank

into broken glass like a tragic shipwreck

(chorus)

with my broken wing

a song of gloom I sing

there's nothing you could have done for the sake of me

we have toppled the king

but still, to your life I cling

hoping we'll still set sail on a voyage

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

not a care in the world

I was so innocent like a baby

the once calm sea is now rainy

the beautiful sunset

we cherished as we set

is nothing but a dark sky

we both knew shortly

you'd be leaving me lonely

tears would be shed and wars would rage

but when the battle ends in the new age

I'll be floating on this shipwreck

(chorus)

don't call my name out loud

to live right, I vowed

so there would be no reason to worry

when I feel ocean wind around me

I where you will be

with invisible arms wrapped on my body

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

in the sleepy port city

where others give pity

this night will bring sweet sleep

but in my sorrowful dream

I walk out on that beach

seeing that what washed up

a familiar, weathered deck

that is my shipwreck

Prohibit

(verse 1)

I'm growing up

say goodbye to being a little girl

I'll fall in love

with whoever I want

always trying to be

proper like a young lady

it's so boring I don't want to

deep in my golden heart

lies a lioness

courage in my hand

freedom in my left

I can never rest

(chorus)

you can prohibit

lock away my spirit

it feels good, voila

take me down a peg

a chain on my leg

there it is, a clear view

if you wanna play

then you pay

to get into the show

see what you see

on your way you'll be

every little bit is lies

at least I can be a little free, eh?

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

walking in the prohibition district

a plethora of fauna

meeting a stranger

feeling my heart beat

with excitement of an encounter

I just want you to witness me

make me feel human

tell me sweet words

when you see my body

(chorus)

for eternity

it takes all of me

just to live this horror

it's dangerous

it's treacherous

to live without a lover

want to kiss those lips

wrap around his hips

get into some trouble

what is it like

to have a lick

of a forbidden something

in a little bit I'll get a hit, eh?

(end chorus)

(chorus)

you can prohibit

lock away my spirit

it feels good, voila

take me down a peg

a chain on my leg

there it is, a clear view

if you wanna play

then you pay

to get into the show

see what you see

on your way you'll be

every little bit is lies

at least I can be a little free, eh?

(end chorus)

SAND BEIGE -to Sahara-

(verse 1)

Sahara, a land of constant dry

but I can only dream why

saying goodbye is so easy for you to do to me

even with wings, we cannot cross this wasteland

there is no water to quench my thirst for your heart

soon it will be dark

the harsh sun will eclipse

and then I can rest and dance my tragedy

(chorus)

trying to find an oasis

for your approval without an assist

makes me want to dance away, sand beige

when I happen to reminisce

there is only one thing that I miss

your hand in mine, baby

just you, me, and a camel

crossing this land the color of caramel

I ask for a drink of water, please

the color of this beige sand

makes me wonder and dream

for your love

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

deep in the dunes

it's just the two of us

and it's still hurtful

that there's not a cloud in the sky

if it rains, will we still feel pain

over our breaking

as for me, I will cross and go to the promised land

how can two people not even share a word

on this long journey?

nevermind the petty things

when this is over

I just want to know where you'll be

(chorus)

it's so hard to even swallow

even though your lips are dry

I still want to try

to kiss them and make you smile

a mirage of a grand palace could appear

and even though we can't get near

would the thought alone be enough

to make you forgive my stupidity?

(end chorus)

(chorus)

trying to find an oasis

for your approval without an assist

makes me want to dance away, sand beige

when I happen to reminisce

there is only one thing that I miss

your hand in mine, baby

just you, me, and a camel

crossing this land the color of caramel

I ask for a drink of water, please

the color of this beige sand

makes me wonder and dream

for your love

(end chorus)

LA BOHÈME

(verse 1)

in the first act when we met

I was just so sure

that we would be inseparable

and escape on the beat

in the second act we made a pact

that we didn't trust anyone else

but we would put faith in each other

then we would ride away and never bother

so tell yourself

to steel yourself

I am too weak

to be strong for us

so you say to me

you got this

and not to worry

that I won't be sorry

(chorus)

if I can depend on you

I'll take us to a new level

needing someone I can be weak with

and have him show mercy

that is all I ask for, baby

no pressure

you are my shining knight

now let's ride into the night

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

people always expect me

to take the moral high ground

but when they're not around

I can only sigh

why should I be the one to sacrifice?

in the third act

she told herself

"he said I can love him"

so she decided to spoil him

and tell them

to forget her forever

(chorus)

in the final act

she moved like a cat

and escaped with him

they watched her fly away

they said they'll never make it

at the climax of the story

will the audience worry?

two young lovers with no experience

go anyway

the city doesn't know a thing

(end chorus)

TATTOO

(verse 1)

take a bite with all your might

I'll hope in your vehicle

and cruise with you by the shore

so smooth and strategical

you know my heart is on fire

but my body is what you admire, get up

a chance to get away

for a revolution

batter up, hit a homerun

be the freedom that I crave

this is a chance for us to be young and misbehave, get up

you, who has flirted with freedom

taint my innocence until I feel numb

like that tattoo that's brand new on your arm

at night I pray to feel emotion

God sent me you like a prize from a radio station

what have I been missing while I was asleep? wake up

I want something electrifying

since you're so mystifying

explain it to me

(chorus)

show me your real love

all for the sake of me

light this girl up

and send her on the ride of her life

show me your real love

take it to the third degree

give her a night

she will regret yet she'll feel brand new

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the city is sweetly drunk

like it's a paradise

before we get sunk

I want to do something

a little happy, wake up

our generation goes to bed

at this time of night

we stay up because we're being bad

and it's alright

(chorus)

show me your real love

before my youth depletes

I found a found a bad boy

and he make life feel complete

show me your real love

you may be just a player

but I want a love to savor and renew

show me your real love

all for the sake of me

light this girl up

and send her on the ride of her life

show me your real love

take it to the third degree

that pretty tattoo

is a rose and it's brand new

(end chorus)

Fin

(verse 1)

passion exploded and blossomed

the door that he ran through closed

and if memory serves right

it never opened

perhaps she said to herself

it's better to not love at all

(chorus)

she has high expectations

she doesn't run wild with emotions

she thinks with her head

and not her heart

it doesn't matter to her at all

just because the beautiful screen says fin

doesn't mean it's the end

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

the dawn burst through to the day

and so she

got up that morning not expecting

to find happiness in the small things

but around her, she found nothing but goodness

and it made her smile, genuine

(chorus)

she knows what life's all about

she doesn't need to dangerously go out

paradise can be find wherever she goes

falling in love isn't important

making yourself happy is

and she got hers, ah ahh ahh

(end chorus)

(chorus)

she has high expectations

she doesn't run wild with emotions

she thinks with her head

and not her heart

it doesn't matter to her at all

just because the beautiful screen says fin

doesn't mean it's the end, ah ahh ahh

a kiss won't make her miss

tears won't make her sick for years

a kiss won't make her miss

tears won't make her sick for years

(end chorus)
