She: uma canção de coração



Fotografia: Valentina Petrova | AFP




She
May be the face I can't forget.
A trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay.
She may be the song that summer sings.
May be the chill that autumn brings.
May be a hundred different things
Within the measure of a day.

She
May be the beauty or the beast.
May be the famine or the feast.
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell.
She may be the mirror of my dreams.
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell

She who always seems so happy in a crowd.
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry.
She may be the love that cannot hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past.
That I'll remember till the day I die

She
May be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and ready years
Me I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is
She, she, she

Elvis Costello, She

Uma canção que ficou irremediavelmente suspensa em minh'alma...

Keane estiveram no North Music Festival,Porto em Maio 2024!  E nos jardins do Paruque de Serralves.

Não estive lá. Bem que gostaria. Mas tive a sorte de ver o concerto completo via RTP1. Que estupenda surpresa! 

Suponho que vieram trazer Hopes & Fears 20.

Foi com emoção que ouvi mutos dos temas preferidos. She Has no Time,  Everybody's Changing, Somewhere Only We Know, entre vários outros. 

E ali fiquei perante o televisor, comovida, durante mais de hora e meia a assistir, deste lado, ao concerto completo.








Todos os sentimentos de há dezanove anos me percorreram. Como é possível? Passados tantos anos sentir profundamemte o que escrevi mais abaixo, quando publiquei o post original. 








Vamos avançando pela vida, mas noss'alma não muda. Está cá tudo. Sentimentos, afectos musicais, percorrem nosso ser até nos esquecermos de nós.






Keane, Brixton, 2008

Música? São pedaços d'alma que divagam à solta em busca de sonhos de oceano e maresia. E, mais longe ainda, elevam-nos do fantasma do dia-a-dia carrancudo e sugador. 

Voamos bem alto, em busca do Outro que, num sopro, se transforma e vem colar-se aos nossos sentidos.

Keane Bedshape


Bedshaped

Many's the time I ran with you down
The rainy roads of our old town
Many the lives we lived in each day
And buried altogether


Don't laugh at me
Don't look away
You'll follow me back


With the sun in your eyes
And on your own
Bedshaped and legs of stone
You'll knock on my door and up we'll go
In white light
I don't think so
But what do I know?


I know you think I'm holding you down
And I've fallen by the wayside now
And I don't understand the same things as you
But I do


Don't laugh at me
Don't look away
You'll follow me back


With the sun in your eyes
And on your own
Bedshaped and legs of stone
You'll knock on my door and up we'll go
In white light
i don't know
But what do I know?
What do I know?
I know

Foi assm, que escrevi esta postagem em 2005, quando ouvi os Keane via internet. Através de um amigo? Possível. Não lembro mais.
