TIME CONTROL

“It’s amazing how you can control the time”

Standing by you

I don’t feel the passing of the time

I don’t even know if it exist

It passes so quickly!

When I’m far away from you

I don’t understand how time passes so slow

I keep waiting for time to pass

But it always takes so long!

Oh! When I kiss you

Time freezes

Everything freezes

Oh! When I want you

I feel the heat

All of the sun heat

LOVE

If love and suffering walk along together

It’s because we are not corresponded

Or because we don’t really love each other

But if we are not corresponded, we don’t love each other

It’s just passion,

For only we really love someone

When we also loved…

If to love were complicated

It wouldn’t be love

For who loves does not complicates

Simply loves

If you try to understand

It’s because you don’t love

For who loves does not want understand

Wants just to love

If we discussed, we don’t love

We waste love time

If we controlled each other, we don’t love

For it has no control

If we try to forget

It’s because we don’t love

For who loves, doesn’t want to forget

And if we insist, we suffering

TO BE ABLE TO WAKE UP

I want to wake up

And before thinking

Simply to love

I want to wake up

And before speaking

To feel your look

I want to live

And without any pain

And without any modesty

To have you

I want to dream

With your flower

With your taste

And touch you

I want to wake up

I want to live

I want to dream

I want to love without thinking

I wake up

I live

I dream

I love you everyday

HOPE

Wherever you go

Take some time for the dreams

Take some time to live

Wherever you look at

Time splits

Time unites

Wherever you go

You will miss someone

You will feel the love

Where the sun sets

Close your eyes and listen

Open your eyes and see

Wherever you go

So we will

Where the sun sets

There, we will be

On the top of a mountain

Or behind a door

In the middle of a road

Or under a garden, there, we will go

On your way home

Or waiting for a ride

On your way to work

Or under a canvas, there, we will go

GAZING AT THE SEA

Gazing at the sea, I feel strength

It’s just like touching the fire

And feeling, your skin, burning

Gazing at the sea, I can hear the wind

It’s just like playing a note

And knowing what music to play

Gazing at the sea it’s like gazing at you

To feel yours strength

To feel life pulsing like music

To be able to feel your kiss

Even without kissing you

But nothing make sense

But nothing make sense

If I couldn’t share

It all with someone

If I couldn’t share

It all with you...

SOMEONE

You know when, even without understanding

Someone runs into your life...

That’s when, even without knowing,

Something changes our lives

You know when someone just shows up

And comfort you, and make you live

It’s like someone who seems to hear your prayer

And take care of you, and stops your suffering

You know when someone breaks in

And softly, in your bosom, appears

As someone who steal a heart without hurting

And never more disappears

But life just show us the other way around

It depends on us, to understand

It’s like living in verses

Without learning to see

And destiny just takes us to a door

It depends on us, to open it

It’s like sowing a vegetable garden

And before harvesting, simply, go...

SPECIAL MOMENTS

I learn something every day

I learn with the surprises of life

I get impressed every day

I get impressed with the surprises of life

At unexpected moments

Good things happen

And for those things

It happens anytime

It’s better to have always

Then to have no time

And better then have it always

It’s to have it when you don’t expect

At those moments of life

We get some surprises

Learning to love

We know people

We strike up a friendship

We experience happiness

And because of them

We feel hope

We trust in destiny

We make things come true

We live life...

TIME AND THE WIND

Breath in the sea

Just like you breath in the air

Feel that time

Just like you feel the wind

If you breath in the sea

It’s because you are alive

If you breath in the air

It’s because you live aimlessly

Feel that time

To feel life going by

So feel the wind

To feel the strength of the air

See what you want to see

And don’t waste any time

Don’t let the time pass by

And don’t say: “But I try...”

Look around and see

What time can do

Look around

Nothing can be lost

From life nothing is lost

And not just everything is lost

But you always get something

For what was got, you can give it away someday

Either hate, or love, either happiness or sadness

That one day you suffered or enjoyed

So you will give back to someone everything you fought for

You’ll give back the certainty, that one day,

Was your worst weakness...

SEE WHAT YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN

The beauty to see

That something you have never seen

It’s unique

For you have seen it, at least, once

If everybody could see

That something we have never seen

Life would hold secrets no more

It wouldn’t make any sense...

There are many things we don’t see

And even so close, we don’t see them

There are so many things we see

And even so far, we see them

Everybody can see

Even who can’t see

We need no eyes

Just heart

Then see

Then live

Live to see the beauty of living

See to live the beauty of seeing

GAZE

Look around

See what you want to see

See ider what frightens you

Or purest being

Just look

But look without any fear of looking

Just feel

Without any fear of feeling

Now close your eyes

And see the mountain in the horizon

Don’t stop now

And see the sea of flowers

Let the perfume envelop you

Let the wind touch your body

Listen to the birds singing

And cast your anchor at this port

Stay there

As long as you can

And stop fighting

As long as you want

Just look

But look without any fear of looking

Just feel

Without any fear of feeling

The world you can see

That’s what we do

That’s what we are

That’s what we have...
