House With no Door - Life for Sale


There's a house with no door and I'm living there


at nights it gets so cold and the days are hard to bear inside.


There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,


falling through my head as I try to think out time

I don't know you, you say you know me, there's so much that I am unsure of ...


There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls;


I sometimes find it hard to tell if any are alive at all outside...



There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there, there's not much point in words if there's no-one to share in time.




I've learned my lines, I am ready to tell whoever will finally come in


 
There's a house with no door


and there's no living there: one day it became a wall well I didn't really care at the time.


There's a house with no light,


all the windows are sealed,


overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME









There's a house with no door and I'm living there

at nights it gets so cold
and the days are hard to bear inside.
There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,
falling through my head as I try to think out time.
I don't know you, you say you know me,
that may be so,
there's so much that I am unsure of ...
You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel, my body's rejecting the cure.
There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls;
I sometimes find it hard to tell
if any are alive at all outside.
There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there
there's not much point in words
if there's no-one to share in time.
I've learned my lines, I know them so well,
I am ready to tell
whoever will finally come in
Of the line in my mind that's cold in the night,
it doesn't seem right
when there's that little dark figure running ...
There's a house with no door
and there's no living there:
one day it became a wall ...
well I didn't really care at the time.
There's a house with no light,
all the windows are sealed,
overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME
I don't know you, you say you know me,
that may be so,
there's so much that I am unsure of ...
You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel,
my body's rejecting the cure .....
Won't somebody help me ......?

If I Rise - Summer Thoughts


































In your life, you're mad
In your car, you're sad
Oh, you're taller now I've found
Hold your fire course
Oh, you're fallen out
Go and sow your courses
If I rise, they are on my drive
If I believe, it's more than it is
More than it is
If I rise, one more chance
All our dreams, more than this
Oh, you're taller now I've found
Hold your fire course
Oh, you're fallen out
Go and sow your courses
If I thought I wanted more
Get the life more
Just one more call
Though I've never lost
Believe I don't care
Never again
If I believe, there's more than this
Any more than this

If I Rise by Dido and A.R. Rahman, Music Lyrics

Learn To Be Still - Bucegi Mountains


It’s just another day in paradise as you stumble to your bed

 You’d give anything to silence those voices ringing in your head

 You thought you could find happiness just over that green hill

You thought you would be satisfied but you never will- Learn to be still
  We are like sheep without a shepherd we don’t know how to be alone. Learn to be still

 Maybe you’ve forgotten the heaven lying at your feet

 There are so many contridictions in all these messages we send

 (we keep asking)

 How do I get out of here

Where do I fit in?
 Though the world is torn and shaken

 Even if your heart is breakin’
 It’s waiting for you to awaken

 And someday you will-

 Learn to be still

 Learn to be still

 You just keep on runnin’

Keep on runnin’


It’s just another day in paradise
As you stumble to your bed
You’d give anything to silence
Those voices ringing in your head
You thought you could find happiness
Just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied
But you never will-
Learn to be still

We are like sheep without a shepherd
We don’t know how to be alone
So we wander ’round this desert
And wind up following the wrong gods home
But the flock cries out for another
And they kep answering that bell
And one more starry-eyed messiah
Meets a violent farewell-
Learn to be still
Now the flowers in your garden
They don’t smell so sweet
Maybe you’ve forgotten
The heaven lying at your feet
There are so many contridictions
In all these messages we send
(we keep asking)
How do I get out of here
Where do I fit in?
Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin’
It’s waiting for you to awaken
And someday you will-
Learn to be still
You just keep on runnin’
Keep on runnin’

Johnny Raducanu - Adio, Mr. Jazz!



Johnny Răducanu / portrait/ pastel

Johnny Răducanu - In Memoriam
 December,1/ 1931 – September, 19 /2011


He offered me a leaf like a hand with fingers.
I offered him a hand like a leaf with teeth.
He offered me a branch like an arm.
I offered him my arm like a branch.
He tipped his trunk towards me
like a shoulder.
I tipped my shoulder to him
like a knotted trunk.
I could hear his sap quicken, beating
like blood.
He could hear my blood slacken like rising sap.
I passed through him.
He passed through me.
I remained a solitary tree.
He
a solitary man.

Unwords
Nichita Stãnescu
