Sábado, 20/04

Eu estava completamente transtornado... Uma amiga tinha tomado a liberdade de dizer coisas que podiam ficar em silêncio, para uma pessoa que eu preferia que (ao menos, por enquanto) ficasse na ignorância. Quase desisti de sair de casa. Uma outra amiga, no mIRC, e o namorado dela, me convenceram do contrário. Abri uma caixa de cerveja, botei três delas pra gelar. Liguei o som e botei um CD que eu não escutava havia mais de um ano. A música que se repetiu infinitamente nos meus ouvidos aquela noite, dizia assim, na voz de Renato Russo:

hey, that's no way to say goodbye

i loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
yes, many loved before us, i know that we are not new,
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

i'm not looking for another as i wander in my time,
walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
you know my love goes with you as your love stays with me,
it's just the way it changes, like the shoreline and the sea,
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

i loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,
your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm,
yes many loved before us, i know that we are not new,
in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,
but let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie,
your eyes are soft with sorrow,
hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
