è presto ancora

[Giancarlo_vadala]

Nel testo di TC c'è una frase che non mi torna. Penso ci sia un errore, perchè nella sez inglese è diversa e mi sembra che abbia più senso. Anziché "there's nothing I'd love to pull you up", in cui il there's nothing sembra non avere a che fare col resto della frase, lì si legge "there's nothing BUT love to pull you up", cioè "non c'è niente se non l'amore per risollevarti". Che dite?

Purtroppo i testi originali vengono dai madrelingua della Sezione Inglese. Appena saranno disponibili i testi ufficiali, correggeremo tutto.

 

Comunque è stata aggiunto testo e relativa traduzione di "Map To My Heart".

 

Non so se c'avete fatto caso ma la canzone ha un testo nientemale. Molto evocativo e romantico.

scusate se nn l'ho messa prima....

[Giancarlo_vadala]

Grazie mille per il testo di map to my heart!!!! Anche se la musica ancora non mi ha preso, il testo è molto tenero. Mi sembra che riveli bene uno degli aspetti dell'interiorità delle donne, cioè il loro desiderio di autenticità, il loro bisogno di fiducia....

[DirkPitt]

me la vado subito a canticchiare la adoro !!!

[Giu87_Celine]

Dal testo sembra una bella canzone...chissà quando potrò ascoltarla...ke nervi...

[maxceline]

ATTENZIONE: questo testo potrebbe contenere degli errori. Non posso garantire che sia del tutto corretto. Tuttavia da parecchi giorni cercavo il testo di questa splendida meravigliosa canzone, e oggi finalmente google mi ha trovato qualcosa. Se i moderatori non hanno niente in contrario, io vi posterei la prima versione, sia pure apocrifa, di TJTWIM. A loro la decisione se lasciare o meno questo testo nel topic.

 

That's just the woman in me

 

If your shoes refuse to shine,

And your live's a down walken line,

And tomorrow just won't follow time, yeah,

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

 

And if your feet can't find the floor

And your key won't fit the door

And you walk out of a true chooser boy, yeah

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

 

Yeah now, I've seen you wanderin' baby!

Up and down my street,

Yeah, tryin to explain that love is paint,

All the people that you meet

Searchin' for that imperious, mysterious femme fatale kinda stuff

But if you don't know by now that it's me anyhow,

And then baby, you got it wrong!

So if you're brain gets so confused yeh

And your tv is blowin a fuse, just come on over

You got nothin to lose, yeh yeh yeh

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

 

Oh 'Cause I need, I need a man to love me

Because I need yeh, I need a man to love, oh

Respect me, protect me, now rollover, turnover

Runaway to other towers,

Buy me a bunch of flowers, Oh yeh

That's just the woman in me baby

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

 

Oh baby yeh

 

Osservate, tra l'altro, che il verso che ho riportato nella mia firma, copiato dal lungo articolo di chuck taylor, non coincide con quello riportato qui, che dovrebbe essere il testo della versione di Katrina & the waves. Vedremo cosa ci dirà il booklet dell'album. Anything that is free comes with no warranty, come dicono gli americani.

[DirkPitt]

grazie lo stesso giancarlo

[shane81]

Grazie x i nuovi testi!!

[Giancarlo_vadala]

Ecco la mia traduzione personale, discutibile e aperta a critiche della mia canzone preferita di quest'album.

 

E' proprio la donna che c'è in me

 

Se le tue scarpe si rifiutano di splendere,

e le tue gambe non riescono ad andare dritto,

e domani è semplicemente un altro momento,

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

che sta agendo su di te.

 

Se i tuoi piedi non trovano la terra,

e la tua chiave non entra nella serratura,

e se ti sei dimenticato che due più due fa quattro,

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

che sta agendo su di te.

 

Ti ho visto vagare, baby,

su e giù per la mia strada,

mentre cercavi di dire a tutti quelli che incontravi

che l’amore fa male,

cercando quella specie di femme fatale imperiale, misteriosa,

ma se ancora non hai capito che sono comunque io,

allora, baby, non ci siamo. [lett. la vedi in modo approssimativo]

 

E quindi se il tuo cervello è così confuso,

e il tuo televisore perde pezzi [lett. sputa fuori un fusibile],

riprenditi, non hai niente da perdere,

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

è proprio la donna che c’è in me, baby

che sta agendo su di te.

 

Perché ho bisogno di un uomo da amare, ne ho bisogno,

ho bisogno di un uomo da amare, ne ho bisogno!

Rispettami, proteggimi, controllati, smettila di dire cazzate,

scappa verso torri d’avorio, [non chiedetemi che vuol dire, mi è tuttora oscuro ]

comprami un sacco di fiori e amami,

è la donna che c’è in me,

che sta agendo su di te, che sta agendo su di te,

che sta agendo su di te, che sta agendo su di te,

Ho bisogno di un uomo da amare, baby,

ho bisogno di un uomo da amare.

 

 

NdT

Riguardo a "drool over", ho scelto di tradurre con "smettila di dire cazzate" perchè il vocabolario mi segnala to drool come forma dialettale americana di to drivel, che vuol dire sbavare, ma anche dire sciocchezze, cavolate. Il tono schietto di tutto il testo e l'interpretazione graffiante di celine mi hanno spinto a maggior ragione a scegliere di tradurre con "dire cazzate", forse un po' volgare ma a mio avviso il più verosimile in tale contesto, oltre che ormai usatissimo nel parlato.

Ovviamente, se avete critiche, fatele. La mia traduzione non ha pretese, perchè non sono un traduttore né un interprete.

 

Riguardo al testo, non mi ero sbagliato ad avvertirvi che poteva essere inesatto. Ci sono diversi punti in cui il testo riportato sul booklet (che, per una volta tanto coincide con quello cantato da celine nel disco) differisce da quello che vi ho postato giorni fa. Controllate voi stessi...

Grazie, ancora...

[Giancarlo_vadala]

Grazie, Giu87, sei molto gentile!!! Ho scelto di tradurre questa perchè è quella che mi ha colpito di più, è così vera, spontanea, incisiva!

posto This Time così accontento subito Simone

 

al momento me ne mancano 4 poi stasera vedo di fare un file unico

 

THIS TIME

 

One more I would bruise

So scared of his return

That I can't sleep tonight

In this hospital light

 

You call a tragedy

Is just another day to me

For my heart beats with fear

As his footsteps stroke near

 

The life I meant to lead

Won't slip away from me..

 

Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes

have seen to much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

 

You break me cause I bleed

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time

Your lies are not enough

This time..

 

There's nothing left of this

You wispered words and empty treaths

We both wait to see

What I thought this would be

The last treath has come undone

To rereveal what i've begun

that i am a victim of

Poisoned love

 

I've been afraid for years

But that won't keep me here..

 

Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes

have seen to much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

 

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time

Your lies are not enough

This time..

 

What remains a mystery

You can not have the best of me

So I'm taking back all you took from me..

 

Cause this time is the last time

I know that my eyes

have seen to much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

 

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time

Your lies are not enough

This time..

TAKING CHANCES

Don't know much about your life.

Don't know much about your world, but

Don't want to be alone tonight,

On this planet they call Earth.

 

You don't know about my past.

And I don't have a future figured out.

And maybe this is gone too fast.

And maybe it's not meant to last,

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

I just want to start again,

Maybe you can show me how to try.

Maybe you could take me in,

Somewhere underneath your skin.

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

And I held my heart beating down,

But it always comes back for more, yeah.

There's nothing I'd love to pull you up,

When you're lying down on the floor,

So talk to me, talk to me, like lovers do,

Walk with me, walk with me, like loves do.

Like lovers do.

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

Don't know much about your life.

Don't know much about your world.

 

ALONE

 

I hear the ticking of the clock

I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark

I wonder where you are tonight

No answer on the telephone

And the night goes by so very slow

Oh I hope that it won't end though

Alone

 

Til now I always got by on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone

How do I get you alone

 

You don't know how long i have wanted

to touch your lips and hold you tight

You don't know how long I have waited

and I was going to tell you tonight

But the secret is still my own

and my love for you is still unknown

Alone

 

Til now I always got by on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone

How do I get you alone

Alone

Alone

 

EYES ON ME

 

I know that once in love

You don't think of the devil who's inside

And maybe it will come one day

When you'll feel safe and I won't have the time

 

You hear what you wanna hear

Play it once I could disappear

Some rules to the game of me

Get it right for both of us

 

Just say what you wanna say

I've got it to give away

We both want to make it last

So keep your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

 

It's not an illusion

That you're the one

And I have fallen deep

I said it from the start

When we're apart

You must only think of me

 

Temptation is all around

Take good care of what you found

That's why when I turn around

You better keep

You better keep your eyes on me

No matter what you think I need

No matter what you once believed

If you're mine

 

So you better say

 

No matter what you think of me

No it doesn't really matter what you once believed

I wanna be the air you breathe

Yeah you better be everything you said you'd be

 

I'm gonna be your only one

We really can't go on

No matter what you think of me

You better keep your eyes on me

 

You say that you want me

Open up your heart

Even if it's hard

Say that you need me

Then let him know

Baby don't put on a show

 

You say that you need me

Tell him how you feel

Let him know it's real

And if you love me

Never turn your back

Gonna keep my eyes on there

 

Temptation is all around

Take good care of what you found

That's why when I turn around

You better keep

You better keep your eyes on me

No matter what you think I need

No matter what you once believed

If you're mine

So you better say

 

No matter what you think of me

No it doesn't really matter what you once believed

I wanna be the air you breathe

Yeah you better be everything you said you'd be

 

I'm gonna be your only one

We really can't go on

No matter what you think of me

You better keep your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

 

MY LOVE

 

My love, we have seen it all

The Endless confession,The rise and fall

As fragile as a child

Lately I'm sorry I can't hold a smile

 

But I stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Did you know I take the time for you

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I must've made it clear right from the start

 

My love, can you give me strength

Somehow I forgot how to ease my pain

I know I'm right where I belong

Something from nothing never proved me wrong

 

But I stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Did you know I take the time for you

 

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I must've made it clear right from the start

 

I would shade my whole life with you

Would you do the same for me

I would give all I am to you

Would you do the same for me

 

And I will stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Could you see I've been brave

Did you notice all my mistakes

There were times I could feel you read my mind

 

Did you know I take the time for you

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I know I made it clear right from the start

 

SHADOW OF LOVE

 

I live my life like a runaway

I hide my dreams in a special place

I'm waiting here for my prince to come

To save me from the darkness

 

I count the nights, I count the days

The ways, yeah

Don't wanna fight, it would be in vain

So in vain, so in vain

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah, yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

I'm living in the shadow of love

 

Your love surrounds me, it's everywhere

It is my shelter, it is my air

A moon eclipse and a burning sun

Make a shade just for me

 

For you I wait forever and a day

Yes I would

To be there if your love should come my way

My way

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

I'm living in the shadow of love

 

Too many nights, too many days

I've hidden from the sun

And though I've tried to break away

You hold a leash just too strong

 

I love you in the shadow of love

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

Cause I'm living in the shadow of love

 

It's because... living in the shadow of love

Shadow of love, yeah

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... the shadow of love

Shadow of love

 

SURPRISE SURPRISE

 

Surprise surprise

I told you lies

I thought the truth would set you free

Surprise surprise

It isn't all as it seems

But who knew you'd wake up from your dreams

If I told you myself

I could've saved you the Hell

Now look who's sorry

God, I'm so sorry

It's never the right time

I guess it's do or die

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

Tonight, I'm a cameleon

And every spot's hiding my scars

But I will survive

Cause I'll only let you in

When I can be sure of who you are

And you can call it a game

But it's me playing safe

And God I'm so sorry, I'm just so sorry

What can I say?

I thought you'd want to stay alive

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

You were tonight, tonight, tonight

 

And it's in your eyes

That is all or nothing

What I can disguise is that you're on to something

I let myself go, will you still want me?

Will I be enough?

The fear of that haunts me

Cause what if you walk away?

 

Just when you think youve got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

You were tonight, tonight, tonight

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Surprise, surprise

 

THIS TIME

 

One more hour burns

So scared of his return

But I can't sleep tonight

In this hospit light

 

What you call tragedy

It just another day to me

For my heart beats with fear

As his footsteps draw near

 

The life I'm meant to lead

Won't slip away from me

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me as I bleed

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

There's nothing left of this

Your whispered words and empty threats

We both wait to cease

What I thought this would be

 

The last threat has come undone

To reveal what I've become

Another victim of

A poisoned love

 

I've been afraid for years

But that won't keep me here

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

And what remains a mystery

You cannot have the best of me

So I'm taking back... all you took from me

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

NEW DAWN

 

Jesus, I will follow

for each day is forgiving and never alone

as we walk through miles of disbelief

it will be his hand the guides you

leading you home

he said

You carry on

a new day will come

You carry on

a new day will dawn

I am woman

a mountain I will climb

I’ve been beat down and I’ve been broken

but each day I give it another try

each road we travel

will show a different life

sometimes living ain’t easy

but Jesus will help you get it right

will carry on

a new day will come

will carry on

a new day will dawn

 

A SONG FOR YOU

 

I couldn't live

I couldnt live without your love

for one kiss

well I'd give everything up

there's no words I can describe

what I feel deep inside

so I let this song say it all

 

Then I hope you'll understand

once you've listened till the end

 

Heard the music in my head

so before I could forget

 

I start singing

yeah I was singing

this song

for you

 

Just made up the words

la la la ohhh ohhh yeah

my heart with a melody

 

so I am singing

this song

for you

 

A WORLD TO BELIEVE IN

 

I’ve seen the tears and the heartache, and I felt the pain

I’ve seen the hatred in so many lives, and lost in vain

And yet through this darkness there’s always a light that shines through

And takes me back home

Takes me back home

 

All of the promises broken

And all of the songs left unsung

Seems so far away as I make my way back to you

 

Chorus:

You gave me faith and you gave me a world to believe in

You gave me your love to believe in

And feeling this love I can rise up above

And be strong and be whole once again

 

I know that dreams we hold on to, can just fade away

And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say

And I when I feel helpless there’s always a hope that shines through

And makes me believe

Makes me believe

 

And I see for one fleeting moment

A paradise under the sun

I drift away and I make my way back to you

 

Chorus:

 

Life goes on

Can leave all sweet sorrow and pain

And life, hold on

To all that you are

To all that we’ll be

And I can go on once again

 

Chorus: x2

 

Because your love hears my soul once again

I can live and I can dream once again

Because you made me believe in

 

CAN’T FIGHT THE FEELING

 

I feel a little peculiar

Feeling kinda strange

I don't know what it is

But I like the change

That comes over me

Whenever he's around

It's as if my feet

Don't even touch the ground

 

Cause when I'm feeling down

He's there to pick me up

and when I talk too much

He doesn't interrupt

Let me tell you there's no better guy

This is how it makes me feel inside

 

I wanna dance (dance) mmm

I wanna play (play)

Well can you hear my heartbeat (boom boom)

A million miles away

He won't stop (stop) no no

Till I drop (drop) yeah

And every day and night he tells me

I'm so special he could never give me up

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

It's a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive

And I can't fight the feeling

 

Somebody told me once

You only get one chance

So live your life

And do the best you can

Once a day goes by

You never get it back

So live every minute

Like it was your last

 

Just dance (dance) mmm

Come on play (play)

And tell somebody you love them (I love you)

At least once a day

And don't stop (stop)

Till you drop (drop)

I didn't know that wanting someone so special

Would come along to steal my heart

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

Is a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive, yeah

 

Love, love, love

And don't let it slip

That was all you need

If you taste it once

It won't be enough

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

Is a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive

And I can't fight the feeling

 

Can't fight the feeling

I said, no, can't, can't, can't

Can't fight the feeling

Can't fight, oh!

You better believe it

You better believe it

Can't fight the feeling

 

I GOT NOTHIN’ LEFT

 

Anybody ever tell you that you're not whole

A hollow shell of man without a soul

Never ever felt your warmth cause you're always cold

Only thing that makes sense is letting go

 

Anybody ever tell you that you've got nerve

Treatin' my love like just another word

Tired of giving love to you that you don't deserve

So this is one way of saying it's over

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

Anybody ever tell you that you're gonna learn

Trust and respect are two things you must earn

When it came to lovin' me you just weren't concerned

You never gave a damn so I guess now it's my turn

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

So done with you

Maybe we're through

So done with you

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

So done with you

So done with you

 

RIGHT NEXT TO THE RIGHT ONE

 

What if we were ment to be together

What if you were ment to be the one

I could hide a million years and try to believe

That any time the girl in mind will come and rescue me

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

In the end you've got a friend for lifetime

Truely there to truely care for you

I know you cry a million tears so I want you to know

That a pretty face can take you places, you don't wanna go

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

So in the end it all depends on weather you'll find

Warm embrassed when I replace the one you had in mind...

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

FADE AWAY

 

I learned from the past

Not everything lasts

I understand that now

Everything changed

When you walked away

But I'll survive somehow

Though I have regrets

I'll learn to forget

And just keep moving on

Cause when love is gone

You have to be strong

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

So I try to smile

But after a while

The memories come back

But I won't give in

Cause I know that then

My heart will fade to black

 

And this time I learned

That love can burn

There's no right or wrong

I've got to be strong

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

I know that one day I'll find that

feeling again

But until I do I'll do

fine by myself

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

You know that

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

THAT’S JUST THE WOMAN IN ME

 

If your shoes refuse to shine,

And your live's a down walken line,

And tomorrow just won't follow time, yeah,

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

 

And if your feet can't find the floor

And your key won't fit the door

And you walk out of a true chooser boy, yeah

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

 

Yeah now, I've seen you wanderin' baby!

Up and down my street,

Yeah, tryin to explain that love is paint,

All the people that you meet

Searchin' for that imperious, mysterious femme fatale kinda stuff

But if you don't know by now that it's me anyhow,

And then baby, you got it wrong!

So if you're brain gets so confused yeh

And your tv is blowin a fuse, just come on over

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

That's just the woman in me baby

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

 

Oh baby yeh

 

SKIES OF L.A.

 

It's so sad what we have become

Beautiful days we seem to leave so undone

And I don't know where we will go from here

All I know is that I can't seem to see the sun

Through the sky from here

 

Everyone has a finger

But they can't point me to the light

It can't be that hard to find

After all we're so bright

 

I don't know if tomorrow has a day

I don't know if the rays will shine my way again

All I know is that I'm standing in a place where

My futur is like the skies of L.A.

Skies of L.A.

Skies of L.A.

 

I don't know if my body can take much more

We're in the line of the riches (?)

But my mind seems so poor

 

Everyone has a finger

But they can't point me to the light

It should't be that hard to find

After all we're so bright

I see so many visions

But everyone seems out of sight

The (?) reflection of a light

Skies of L.A.

 

My future looks like the skies of L.A.

 

MAP TO MY HEART

 

White chocolated kisses

Under the stars

Riding on horses

Boys with guitars

If you really wanna get through to me

You don't have to try so hard

 

Give me a reason

To dance in the dark

Be there to catch me

And I'll fall apart

If you wanna know how to get to me

Follow the map to my heart

 

I cry for no reason

I laugh at akward moments

There's no manual

That explains where I'm going

So show me the way

Show me the way

 

White chocolate kisses

Under the stars

Riding on horses

Boys with guitars

If you wanna know how to get to me

Follow the map to my heart

 

You play that thing

Like you're talkin again

You strum those strings

Like an angel on Earth

Did you notice

I can't focus on nothing else

Whats making me come

Out of my shell

Sometimes its so hard to tell

I don't even know myself

When you do

Yeah you do

 

Don't ask for directions

I'm tired of explaining

There's no book I've read

That says what I'm saying

So show me the way

Show me the way

 

Give me a reason

To dance in the dark

Be there to catch me

And I'll fall apart

If you really wanna get through to me

You don't have to try so hard

 

If you wanna know how to get to me

Then follow the map to my heart

 

Just follow it baby

To my

To my heart

 

THE REASON I GO ON

 

When I'm feeling down

The mention of your name

It lifts my spirit up

It makes me carry on,

when I don't have the strength

Your faith can heal me

Like the sun that shines

You give me light to see

 

Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

 

Could I find the words to tell you how I feel

With one look from your eyes

I know what heaven's worth

So what's in everything

To hold and touch you

You're the air I breath

The reason my heart beats

 

Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Oh, can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

The Reason I Go On, yeah

 

Baby I'm just dreaming

But my hope it keeps me strong

 

Oh Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Oh, can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

 

The Reason I Go On

[biddamon]

allora... ragazzi ora vi posto i testi che ho trovato su internet ... apparte quelli riportati in questo topic da enzo renato e giancarlo gli altri sicuro contengono errori... che spero al + presto di correggere confrontanto con il libretto di taking chances... se poi qualcuno lo fa prima di me ben venga

 

TAKING CHANCES

Don't know much about your life.

Don't know much about your world, but

Don't want to be alone tonight,

On this planet they call Earth.

 

You don't know about my past.

And I don't have a future figured out.

And maybe this is gone too fast.

And maybe it's not meant to last,

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

I just want to start again,

Maybe you can show me how to try.

Maybe you could take me in,

Somewhere underneath your skin.

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

And I held my heart beating down,

But it always comes back for more, yeah.

There's nothing I'd love to pull you up,

When you're lying down on the floor,

So talk to me, talk to me, like lovers do,

Walk with me, walk with me, like loves do.

Like lovers do.

 

But what do you say to taking chances,

What do you say to jumping off the edge?

And never knowing if there's solid ground below.

Or a hand to hold.

Or hell to pay.

 

What do you say?

What do you say?

 

Don't know much about your life.

Don't know much about your world.

 

ALONE

 

I hear the ticking of the clock

I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark

I wonder where you are tonight

No answer on the telephone

And the night goes by so very slow

Oh I hope that it won't end though

Alone

 

Til now I always got by on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone

How do I get you alone

 

You don't know how long i have wanted

to touch your lips and hold you tight

You don't know how long I have waited

and I was going to tell you tonight

But the secret is still my own

and my love for you is still unknown

Alone

 

Til now I always got by on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone

How do I get you alone

Alone

Alone

 

EYES ON ME

 

I know that once in love

You don't think of the devil who's inside

And maybe it will come one day

When you'll feel safe and I won't have the time

 

You hear what you wanna hear

Play it once I could disappear

Some rules to the game of me

Get it right for both of us

 

Just say what you wanna say

I've got it to give away

We both want to make it last

So keep your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

 

It's not an illusion

That you're the one

And I have fallen deep

I said it from the start

When we're apart

You must only think of me

 

Temptation is all around

Take good care of what you found

That's why when I turn around

You better keep

You better keep your eyes on me

No matter what you think I need

No matter what you once believed

If you're mine

 

So you better say

 

No matter what you think of me

No it doesn't really matter what you once believed

I wanna be the air you breathe

Yeah you better be everything you said you'd be

 

I'm gonna be your only one

We really can't go on

No matter what you think of me

You better keep your eyes on me

 

You say that you want me

Open up your heart

Even if it's hard

Say that you need me

Then let him know

Baby don't put on a show

 

You say that you need me

Tell him how you feel

Let him know it's real

And if you love me

Never turn your back

Gonna keep my eyes on there

 

Temptation is all around

Take good care of what you found

That's why when I turn around

You better keep

You better keep your eyes on me

No matter what you think I need

No matter what you once believed

If you're mine

So you better say

 

No matter what you think of me

No it doesn't really matter what you once believed

I wanna be the air you breathe

Yeah you better be everything you said you'd be

 

I'm gonna be your only one

We really can't go on

No matter what you think of me

You better keep your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

Your eyes on me

 

MY LOVE

 

My love, we have seen it all

The Endless confession,The rise and fall

As fragile as a child

Lately I'm sorry I can't hold a smile

 

But I stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Did you know I take the time for you

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I must've made it clear right from the start

 

My love, can you give me strength

Somehow I forgot how to ease my pain

I know I'm right where I belong

Something from nothing never proved me wrong

 

But I stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Did you know I take the time for you

 

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I must've made it clear right from the start

 

I would shade my whole life with you

Would you do the same for me

I would give all I am to you

Would you do the same for me

 

And I will stand tall to get by

No matter how hard I try to hide

Could you see I've been brave

Did you notice all my mistakes

There were times I could feel you read my mind

 

Did you know I take the time for you

Did you know that I would see you through

Did you know that I would play the part

I know I made it clear right from the start

 

SHADOW OF LOVE

 

I live my life like a runaway

I hide my dreams in a special place

I'm waiting here for my prince to come

To save me from the darkness

 

I count the nights, I count the days

The ways, yeah

Don't wanna fight, it would be in vain

So in vain, so in vain

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah, yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

I'm living in the shadow of love

 

Your love surrounds me, it's everywhere

It is my shelter, it is my air

A moon eclipse and a burning sun

Make a shade just for me

 

For you I wait forever and a day

Yes I would

To be there if your love should come my way

My way

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

I'm living in the shadow of love

 

Too many nights, too many days

I've hidden from the sun

And though I've tried to break away

You hold a leash just too strong

 

I love you in the shadow of love

 

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... I'm living in the shadow of love

Yeah

To me you are the only one I dream of

Cause I'm living in the shadow of love

 

It's because... living in the shadow of love

Shadow of love, yeah

I can run but I can't hide

It's because... the shadow of love

Shadow of love

 

SURPRISE SURPRISE

 

Surprise surprise

I told you lies

I thought the truth would set you free

Surprise surprise

It isn't all as it seems

But who knew you'd wake up from your dreams

If I told you myself

I could've saved you the Hell

Now look who's sorry

God, I'm so sorry

It's never the right time

I guess it's do or die

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

Tonight, I'm a cameleon

And every spot's hiding my scars

But I will survive

Cause I'll only let you in

When I can be sure of who you are

And you can call it a game

But it's me playing safe

And God I'm so sorry, I'm just so sorry

What can I say?

I thought you'd want to stay alive

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

You were tonight, tonight, tonight

 

And it's in your eyes

That is all or nothing

What I can disguise is that you're on to something

I let myself go, will you still want me?

Will I be enough?

The fear of that haunts me

Cause what if you walk away?

 

Just when you think youve got me figured me out

Just when you think you know me well

Baby, you've barely even broke the ice

My river runs wide

You're not inside

But you're closer than you were

 

You were tonight, tonight, tonight

 

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Just when you think you've got me figured me out

Surprise, surprise

 

THIS TIME

 

One more hour burns

So scared of his return

But I can't sleep tonight

In this hospit light

 

What you call tragedy

It just another day to me

For my heart beats with fear

As his footsteps draw near

 

The life I'm meant to lead

Won't slip away from me

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me as I bleed

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

There's nothing left of this

Your whispered words and empty threats

We both wait to cease

What I thought this would be

 

The last threat has come undone

To reveal what I've become

Another victim of

A poisoned love

 

I've been afraid for years

But that won't keep me here

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

And what remains a mystery

You cannot have the best of me

So I'm taking back... all you took from me

 

Cause this time's the last time

I know that my eyes have seen too much

This nightmare is not fair

And I've had enough

You break me

You just say you're sorry

You call this love

But this time your lies are not enough

This time

 

NEW DAWN

 

Jesus, I will follow

for each day is forgiving and never alone

as we walk through miles of disbelief

it will be his hand the guides you

leading you home

he said

You carry on

a new day will come

You carry on

a new day will dawn

I am woman

a mountain I will climb

I’ve been beat down and I’ve been broken

but each day I give it another try

each road we travel

will show a different life

sometimes living ain’t easy

but Jesus will help you get it right

will carry on

a new day will come

will carry on

a new day will dawn

 

A SONG FOR YOU

 

I couldn't live

I couldnt live without your love

for one kiss

well I'd give everything up

there's no words I can describe

what I feel deep inside

so I let this song say it all

 

Then I hope you'll understand

once you've listened till the end

 

Heard the music in my head

so before I could forget

 

I start singing

yeah I was singing

this song

for you

 

Just made up the words

la la la ohhh ohhh yeah

my heart with a melody

 

so I am singing

this song

for you

 

A WORLD TO BELIEVE IN

 

I’ve seen the tears and the heartache, and I felt the pain

I’ve seen the hatred in so many lives, and lost in vain

And yet through this darkness there’s always a light that shines through

And takes me back home

Takes me back home

 

All of the promises broken

And all of the songs left unsung

Seems so far away as I make my way back to you

 

Chorus:

You gave me faith and you gave me a world to believe in

You gave me your love to believe in

And feeling this love I can rise up above

And be strong and be whole once again

 

I know that dreams we hold on to, can just fade away

And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say

And I when I feel helpless there’s always a hope that shines through

And makes me believe

Makes me believe

 

And I see for one fleeting moment

A paradise under the sun

I drift away and I make my way back to you

 

Chorus:

 

Life goes on

Can leave all sweet sorrow and pain

And life, hold on

To all that you are

To all that we’ll be

And I can go on once again

 

Chorus: x2

 

Because your love hears my soul once again

I can live and I can dream once again

Because you made me believe in

 

CAN’T FIGHT THE FEELING

 

I feel a little peculiar

Feeling kinda strange

I don't know what it is

But I like the change

That comes over me

Whenever he's around

It's as if my feet

Don't even touch the ground

 

Cause when I'm feeling down

He's there to pick me up

and when I talk too much

He doesn't interrupt

Let me tell you there's no better guy

This is how it makes me feel inside

 

I wanna dance (dance) mmm

I wanna play (play)

Well can you hear my heartbeat (boom boom)

A million miles away

He won't stop (stop) no no

Till I drop (drop) yeah

And every day and night he tells me

I'm so special he could never give me up

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

It's a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive

And I can't fight the feeling

 

Somebody told me once

You only get one chance

So live your life

And do the best you can

Once a day goes by

You never get it back

So live every minute

Like it was your last

 

Just dance (dance) mmm

Come on play (play)

And tell somebody you love them (I love you)

At least once a day

And don't stop (stop)

Till you drop (drop)

I didn't know that wanting someone so special

Would come along to steal my heart

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

Is a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive, yeah

 

Love, love, love

And don't let it slip

That was all you need

If you taste it once

It won't be enough

 

I'm hooked on a feeling

A natural high

You better believe it

And the reason why

Is a thing called love

It makes me feel so alive

And I can't fight the feeling

 

Can't fight the feeling

I said, no, can't, can't, can't

Can't fight the feeling

Can't fight, oh!

You better believe it

You better believe it

Can't fight the feeling

 

I GOT NOTHIN’ LEFT

 

Anybody ever tell you that you're not whole

A hollow shell of man without a soul

Never ever felt your warmth cause you're always cold

Only thing that makes sense is letting go

 

Anybody ever tell you that you've got nerve

Treatin' my love like just another word

Tired of giving love to you that you don't deserve

So this is one way of saying it's over

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

Anybody ever tell you that you're gonna learn

Trust and respect are two things you must earn

When it came to lovin' me you just weren't concerned

You never gave a damn so I guess now it's my turn

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

So done with you

Maybe we're through

So done with you

 

Cause I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I got nothing left

I gave you my best

And you treated it worthless

So I got nothing left

 

So done with you

So done with you

 

RIGHT NEXT TO THE RIGHT ONE

 

What if we were ment to be together

What if you were ment to be the one

I could hide a million years and try to believe

That any time the girl in mind will come and rescue me

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

In the end you've got a friend for lifetime

Truely there to truely care for you

I know you cry a million tears so I want you to know

That a pretty face can take you places, you don't wanna go

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

So in the end it all depends on weather you'll find

Warm embrassed when I replace the one you had in mind...

 

'Cause you're the fire, you're the one

But you'll never see the sun

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

And I could call it many names

But it's myself I need to blame

If you don't know, you're right next to the right one

 

FADE AWAY

 

I learned from the past

Not everything lasts

I understand that now

Everything changed

When you walked away

But I'll survive somehow

Though I have regrets

I'll learn to forget

And just keep moving on

Cause when love is gone

You have to be strong

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

So I try to smile

But after a while

The memories come back

But I won't give in

Cause I know that then

My heart will fade to black

 

And this time I learned

That love can burn

There's no right or wrong

I've got to be strong

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

I know that one day I'll find that

feeling again

But until I do I'll do

fine by myself

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

You know that

 

Once touched by pain

You're not the same

But time can heal

Your heart again

So let the clouds

That bring you down

So let the clouds

That bring you down

Just fade away

Away

 

THAT’S JUST THE WOMAN IN ME

 

If your shoes refuse to shine,

And your live's a down walken line,

And tomorrow just won't follow time, yeah,

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

 

And if your feet can't find the floor

And your key won't fit the door

And you walk out of a true chooser boy, yeah

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman in me baby

That's just the woman workin' on you

Workin' on you

That's just the woman in me baby

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

Workin' on you

 

Oh baby yeh

 

SKIES OF L.A.

 

It's so sad what we have become

Beautiful days we seem to leave so undone

And I don't know where we will go from here

All I know is that I can't seem to see the sun

Through the sky from here

 

Everyone has a finger

But they can't point me to the light

It can't be that hard to find

After all we're so bright

 

I don't know if tomorrow has a day

I don't know if the rays will shine my way again

All I know is that I'm standing in a place where

My futur is like the skies of L.A.

Skies of L.A.

Skies of L.A.

 

I don't know if my body can take much more

We're in the line of the riches (?)

But my mind seems so poor

 

Everyone has a finger

But they can't point me to the light

It should't be that hard to find

After all we're so bright

I see so many visions

But everyone seems out of sight

The (?) reflection of a light

Skies of L.A.

 

My future looks like the skies of L.A.

 

MAP TO MY HEART

 

White chocolated kisses

Under the stars

Riding on horses

Boys with guitars

If you really wanna get through to me

You don't have to try so hard

 

Give me a reason

To dance in the dark

Be there to catch me

And I'll fall apart

If you wanna know how to get to me

Follow the map to my heart

 

I cry for no reason

I laugh at akward moments

There's no manual

That explains where I'm going

So show me the way

Show me the way

 

White chocolate kisses

Under the stars

Riding on horses

Boys with guitars

If you wanna know how to get to me

Follow the map to my heart

 

You play that thing

Like you're talkin again

You strum those strings

Like an angel on Earth

Did you notice

I can't focus on nothing else

Whats making me come

Out of my shell

Sometimes its so hard to tell

I don't even know myself

When you do

Yeah you do

 

Don't ask for directions

I'm tired of explaining

There's no book I've read

That says what I'm saying

So show me the way

Show me the way

 

Give me a reason

To dance in the dark

Be there to catch me

And I'll fall apart

If you really wanna get through to me

You don't have to try so hard

 

If you wanna know how to get to me

Then follow the map to my heart

 

Just follow it baby

To my

To my heart

 

THE REASON I GO ON

 

When I'm feeling down

The mention of your name

It lifts my spirit up

It makes me carry on,

when I don't have the strength

Your faith can heal me

Like the sun that shines

You give me light to see

 

Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

 

Could I find the words to tell you how I feel

With one look from your eyes

I know what heaven's worth

So what's in everything

To hold and touch you

You're the air I breath

The reason my heart beats

 

Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Oh, can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

The Reason I Go On, yeah

 

Baby I'm just dreaming

But my hope it keeps me strong

 

Oh Catch me 'cause I'm falling

I'm so lost inside your love

Oh, can you hear me calling to your heart

‘Cause you're the one, the reason I go on

 

The Reason I Go On
