A Dark Desire
I tiptoe silently. Nobody must hear
me. I feel my heart beating faster and faster... Until I reach one last
threshold… I stop and tell myself: “You don’t have to do IT. You really don’t”
I feel awful… but it´s my fate. Only one time and no more... sweet Chocolate.
A Dark Desire (Loudness)
Because You Love Me
You were always around me. Just calling your name and you were willing to
do whatever I ordered, ready to obey, always happy. Today is different, I call
you aloud once and again but you do not come. My eleven year old dog has
gone and will never come back.
Because You Love Me (Celine Dion)
Last Night
Suddenly,
an unexpected feeling takes over me as your arms wrap me up warmly. Your strong
body, your big sword… tell me to let go while the deafening storm hinders my
flight. Sunrise. I must fly south immediately while you’ll stay rooted here
forever. Just a bird and a statue.
Last Night (Strokes)
Lost in the Echo
He opened his eyes. Where was he? Who was the unknown person beside him? He
was afraid. He couldn't remember his last steps. His son, who was sitting next
to him, was crying. Drying his own tears, he said “I think I should introduce
myself.” Again, he thought.

More Than
Words
They
pass one by one leaving their marks in our spirits, opening our minds to
distant places, making us feel utterly insignificant. They go through us as
softly as a whisper and, all of a sudden, time becomes infinite in their midst.
Every book is a conquered piece of ourselves.
More Than Words (Extreme)
One Way
Ticket
George walked
impatiently and looked nervously at the clock. The train was ready to leave.
Where is she? He thought. They would go
far to start a new life, he had never stolen anything and would never do it
again; suddenly he turned around and there she was...a policewoman.
One Way Ticket (Boney M)
Only teardrops
The old stone
oven, our house door frame, the tree on which my swing used to hang are still
standing. Longing for money drowned my childhood. Now, the drought allows me
to see my past memories. The reservoir began to fill again. But tears were too
salty for the earth.
Only Teardrops (Emmelie De Forest)
Quando,
quando, quando.
Last minute of
injury time.
- “Be extremely
careful with Garrincha, he always dribbles toward the right!”
-“Yes sir,
understand”.
End of the game
-Did not I tell
you HOW Garrincha dribbles?, so, why the hell …
- Yes
sir you did, but you did not tell me WHEN!!!.
Quando Quando Quando (Michael Buble)
Red
Dead Bodies
The sun’s burning while her body
remains suspended, high and inert. Her end is about to come. After waking up,
the man sees her, approaches and jumps up to release her. She immediately falls
to the ground. His eyes sparkling, his mouth watering… he exclaimed: “Come to
me, delicious cherry!”

Smile
She was very impatient, shifting
restlessly in her seat. Suddenly, she jumped up and left in a hurry. When she
returned, the painter glared at her and muttered: “What’s wrong?” – “Leonardo,
I needed to use the toiled” – she said, sitting again. Her face lit up with an
enigmatic smile.
Smile (Nat King Cole)
Sweet
Sixteen
“Doc, this
headache’s gonna kill me. I feel sick and I have a strong stomachache too.”
Shit!! I can’t stand the pain. “Well, you’ve lost several neurons, but don’t
worry girl, sleep, rest, tomorrow you’ll feel better. A hangover isn’t
dangerous.” Oh, God! I’ll never drink again…until next Saturday.
Sweet Sixteen (Billy Idol)
Vengeance is Mine
It had been a long journey. Countries, deserts and even a sea, looking for revenge. It had been harsh but thirst for vengeance spurred him on. When he got to Madrid, he walked up to a man: “Excuse me, could you tell me where the King lives? asked the elephant.
