This is a naked one (haha) I really didn’t add anything besides the guitar and vocals (me and Dani). This is a song I wrote for people that are very dear to me, who eventually heard the song without knowing it was meant for them. I don’t know… I just wanted to love them. Which I did. And, also, to let them know I was there. It’s funny how songs come to me. This one I tried to make sense with the story about a couple that still love each other. At least one of them. Another interesting thing about this song is that we recorded with Rock Paper Texas in a professional studio. But I just couldn’t release it on our EP. I wasn’t totally happy with the results or maybe it wasn’t the right timing. Well, here it is. Recorded from the basement (aka office, or playroom as you wish haha) of our home.
Essa música está pelada haha Eu não coloquei nada além na minha voz, violão e a voz da Dani. Essa música eu escrevi pra pessoas muito importantes na minha vida e elas acabaram ouvindo tudo sem saber que era pra elas. Não sei explicar… eu só queria amá-las. E foi o que fiz. E também mostrar que elas podiam contar comigo. É engraçado como as músicas simplesmente surgem pra mim. Eu tentei criar uma história sobre um casal que ainda se amava, ou pelo menos uma das partes ainda amava. Mas essencialmente é sobre preencher o coração do outro com amor, é isso que diz o refrão. Outro fato interessante dessa música é que ela chegou a ser gravada com a minha banda Rock Paper Texas num estúdio profissional de Vancouver. Mas eu acabei optando por não lançá-la com o nosso EP. Eu não fiquei completamente satisfeito com o resultado, ou talvez não era o momento certo, sei lá. Bom, aqui está ela. Gravada no porão (vulgo escritório ou brinquedoteca se preferir haha) da nossa casa.
Lyrics
Hello, dear friend.
You’re now just a friend.
But this tears are questions I do not understand.
Because you gave to me.
And I gave back to you.
But I can not tell you more than your conscience always does.
Don’t … oh please, don’t be late.
Don’t be late.
Because you have a hole in your soul.
And I want to full fill with love.
Can I want to full fill with love?
Can I? Please.
You said, “The end is near”.
And I said, why is the end.
We can not go on “this” if you don’t forget the past.
Don’t deny yourself.
“This” feeling is what we need.
We could be in peace.
If you just believe.
Don’t … oh please, don’t be late.
Don’t be late.
Because you have a hole in your soul.
And I want to full fill with love.
Can I want to full fill with love?
Can I? Please.
