Waiting...

What can I say? What else is there to say?
More words... Words won't change anything.

You gave me wings, just so you could take them away.
Why? Did you hate me that much?
I always loved you so much... I still love you.
I hope you can understand why I did what I did.
I'm not your toy...

I'll always be here waiting for you to understand.
I will be here waiting for you to give me wings again.

And then we'll fly. Fly away... Fly forever.

Ai, Margarida

Ai, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida,
Que farias tu com ela?
- Tirava os brincos do prego.
Casava c'um homem cego
E ia morar para a Estrela.

Mas, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida,
Que diria tua mãe?
- (Ela conhece-me a fundo.)
Que há muito parvo no mundo,
E que eras parvo também.

E, Margarida,
Se eu te desse a minha vida
No sentido de morrer?
- Eu iria ao teu enterro,
Mas achava que era um erro
Querer amar sem viver.

Mas, Margarida,
Se este dar-te a minha vida
Não fosse senão poesia?
- Então, filho, nada feito.
Fica tudo sem efeito.
Nesta casa não se fia.

In the flesh [excerto]

- I will always be there.
- No!
She holds her ears.
-You know that I love you!
Pretends she doesn't hear.
- We're in this together. We share the same skin.
Panic in his voice now.
- Free us from sin!

-Tell me that you love me!
This is the end...
- I know that you do.
Of her way.
Never ever again follow me down.
