Agora Não, Ainda Não

Agora não, ainda não
Eu não quero ir já por aí
Mais tarde vou-te encontrar
Tenho assuntos por resolver

Agora não, ainda não
Já conheço o inferno no céu
E ando a rondar o jardim
Das delícias

Tanto avião a chegar
Tanto avião a partir
E eu recuso-me a viajar
Agora
Se a lua me inquietar
Se a aurora me proteger
Não estou disposto a ir já
Embora

Agora não, ainda não
Tenho um grande fascínio por ti
Havemos de discutir
Há mistérios por desvendar

Agora não, ainda não
Há enigmas que só nós dois
Teremos de decifrar
Um dia

Tanto avião a chegar
Tanto avião a partir
E eu recuso-me a viajar
Agora
Se a lua me inquietar
Se a aurora me proteger
Não estou disposto a ir já
Embora

Agora não, ainda não
Eu não quero ir já por aí
Mais tarde vou-te encontrar
Tenho coisas por resolver

Agora não, ainda não
Guarda-me esse barco perdido
Dá espaço ao meu coração
Vadio

Tanto avião a chegar
Tanto avião a partir
E eu recuso-me a viajar
Agora
Se a lua me inquietar
Se a aurora me proteger
Não estou disposto a ir já
Embora

Reach A Bit Further

I was angry and brash as a bull
You were devastatingly beautiful

I was crude
I was lewd
I was rude
I was not in the mood

It's a peculiar stance
It's me reaching for the olive branch

I say yes I will do all the things that you ask of me
I say yes I will, come on darling, have no fear

And though the way is dark
And hands will grab at us
I'll remember this
And only this

Yes I will

Tearjerker, shadow lurker, wonder worker, reach a bit further
Tearjerker, shadow lurker, wonder worker, reach a bit further
Will you by any chance
Remember the olive branch?

Say yes I will do all the things that you'll ask of my
Yes I will, come on darling have no fear

And though the way is dark
And hands will grab at us
I'll remember this
And only this

Oh yes, yes I will

Tearjerker, shadow-lurker, wonder-worker, reach a bit further
Tearjerker, shadow-lurker, wonder-worker, reach a bit further
Will you by any chance?
Yes I will

I Put A Spell On You

I put a spell on you
’cause you’re mine

You better stop the things you do
I ain’t lyin’
No I ain’t lyin’

You know I can’t stand it
You’re runnin’ around
You know better daddy
I can’t stand it cause you put me down

I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
You’re mine

I love ya
I love you
I love you
I love you anyhow
And I don’t care
If you don’t want me
I’m yours right now

You hear me
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine

Football Game

I went down to the football game
Went down to the football game
But I thought
It was really a shame
I saw you
With another man
I saw you
With another man
Saw you
With another man
You'd better learn, baby
I hope you can
Ain't no way
I'm going over now
Ain't no way
Ain't no way
If I'm gonna travel
Gonna make that call
Gonna make that call

I went down to the football game
Went down to the football game
But I thought
It was really a shame
I saw you
With another man
I saw you
With another man
I saw you
With another man
You'd better learn, baby
I hope you can
Ain't no way
I'm going over now
Ain't no way
Ain't no way
I'm gonna come
Gonna make that call
Gonna make that call
With my ...

Drover


The real people went away
But I'll find a better word, someday
Leaving only me and my dreams
My cattle and a resonator

I drove all the beast down right under your nose
The lumbering footloose power
The bull and the rose
Don't touch them don't try to hurt them
My cattle

I drove them by the crops and thought the crops were lost
I consoled myself with rudimentary thoughts
And I set my watch against the city clock
It was way off

Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
It takes a strong, strong
It breaks a strong, strong mind
Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
It takes a strong, strong
It breaks a strong, strong mind

And anything less, anything less
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time

But the pain and frustration, is not mine
It belongs to the cattle, through the valley

And when my cattle turns on me
I was knocked back flat
I was knocked out cold for one clack of the train track
Then I rose a colossal hand buried, buried in sand
I rose like a drover
For I am in the end a drover
A drover by trade
When my cattle turns on me
I am a drover, double fold

My cattle bears it all away for me and everyone
One, one, one, one, one, one ...

Yeah one thing about this wild, wild country
It takes a strong, strong
It breaks a strong, strong mind
And anything less, anything less
Makes me feel like I'm wasting my time

No Light, No Light

You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said

You are the night-time fear
You are the morning when it's clear
When it's over your start

You're my head
You're my heart

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day

You can choose what stays and what fades away
And I'd do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
No light

Tell me what you want me to say
Through the crowded islands
Crying out at me
In your place there were a thousand other faces

I will disappear in plain sight
Heaven help me
I need to make it right
You are the revelation
You are to get it right
And it's a conversation
I just can't have tonight

You want a revelation
Some kind of revolution
You are the revelation

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent
A revelation in the light of day

You can choose what stays and what fades away
And I'd do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
No light

Tell me what you want me to say
But would you leave me,
If I told you what I've done

And would you leave me
If I told you what I've become
'Cause it's so easy,
To sing it to a crowd
But it's so hard, my love
To say it to you, all alone

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes
I never knew daylight could be so violent

A revelation in the light of day,
You can choose what stays and what fades away
And I'd do anything to make you stay

No light, no light
No light

Tell me what you want me to say
You are the revelation
You are to get it right
But, it's a conversation
I just can't have tonight
You are the revelation
Some kind of resolution.

You are the revelation.
You are the revelation
You are to get it right.

But, it's a conversation,
I just can't have tonight.
You are the revelation
Some kind of revolution
Tell me what you want me to say

(Florence + The Machine)
