Fragments of a dream

Forgotten: 
Well it seems we've been forgotten
In this distant place
Floating on a dead drift
Nowhere to keep us safe
Somebody's got to call the captain
Tell him we're in trouble and we need to call home
and we can tell them where the soul lives
but only for a price
Sometimes tucked behind the shadows 
Hiding from the light
But if we pierce it with the purest sound
We can share the stories on the way down

The wind was barely blowing, but I couldn't hear the voice
Like silent film with color at the fringe
We were so close to touching bottom 
They waved with crooked smiles
They threw the rope too short to pull us in

Lyrics:
Vibin' with you
Baby put your love down
Love down
Throw the dice 
Bacardi on ice
Cause we took it down town
Vibin' with you
Pull up with that pain of yours
Thought that I struck a vein of yours 
Yeah
I don't know
What it takes
To prove it to you
Too many times in love
Too many times in love
I don't know
What it takes
To show it to you
Too many nights on the run
Too many nights on the run

Too Many Times In Love - Paploviante

Deep Space

Once upon a time a little man
alone  and with no age
by dint of living at minimum.
He sold tobacco and chewing gums
always behind his counter , transparent, almost no one.
Then , when night comes, 
 in the land of chimeras
he re-writes his own story
then , in the softness of his sheets , he leaves real life away 
for the most beautiful Happy end

Once upon a time a beautiful lady 
who crossed her life with a certain melancholy
she had achieved her woman life 
but when children leave, sometimes, tears only remain 
Then , when night comes, 
 in the land of chimeras
she re-writes her own story
then , in the softness of her sheets , she leaves real life away 
for the most beautiful Happy end

This is eventually the very banal story 
of all those people living on their own
to whom we don't even give a look 

Then , when night comes, 
they want to believe that life is beautiful
that they can change the end of the story
eyes wide open , in the dark, they leave real life away 
for the most beautiful Happy end

Charlie Watts was one classy drummer. 

Hey let him follow you down
Way underground wind and he's bound
Bound to follow you down
Just a dead beat right off the street
Bound to follow you down
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
And dressing rooms filled with parasites
On stage the band has got problems
They're a bag of nerves on first nights
He ain't tied down to no home town
Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough
Yeah, and the codeine to fix it
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies
Who's gonna help him to kick it
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
