I MISS YOU
22 Setembro 2011
Letra e música de Sílvia Barcelos

I miss you
I want you to know
I have loved you even when silence should be heard

I need you
I never thought that
We'd have the reasons why our hearts should be apart

I'd have run the miles left to go with you
You'd never be alone

Well, I've been waiting all this time for you to see it
And I'm still waiting, but for this pain to go away
We both have reasons. Should we move on?

I remember
How close we used to
Fight the darkness. Oh! The dreams we held as true

And I forgive you
But I want you to know
That I wonder if goodbye will set us free

I'd have run the miles left to go with you
You'd never be alone

Should destiny decide
For how far? For how long?
I've never been this way before
I want you to know
My silence has a name
Well I've been waiting...

I miss
And I'm still waiting...

You're Beautiful - Silvia Barcelos




YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL
Music and lyrics by Sílvia Barcelos
May 29, 2011

Did you know you’re beautiful?
Do you know how beautiful you are?
Here we go
One, two, three, four,
How many times did I look at you?
Five, six, seven, eight,
I’ve lost the many times
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve
No, we’re a million times now
No, no, can’t look at you
I got lost in your eyes

You caught me
Oh oh
In the night
Ah ah
Yes, you’re bright
Oh oh
Where am I?

Did you know I’m in love with you?
Did you know I love the way you are?
Here we go
One, two, three, four,
How many times did I fall for you?
Five, six, seven, eight
I’ve lost the many times.
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve
Oh wait, I’ll start all over again
One, two, three, four,
No, no, I can’t count

Bridge:
Did I say you’re beautiful?
Did I say how beautiful you are?
And it’s you I see myself with
And it’s you I wanna dance with
Here I am asking please come back to me

Here we go
One, two, three, four,
How many times did I fall for you?
Five, six, seven, eight
I’ve lost the many times.
Nine, ten, eleven, twelve
Oh wait, I’ll start all over again
One, two, three, four,
No, no, I can’t count

Poetry Of My Loss



Poetry of My Loss
Música e letra de Sílvia Barcelos
15 Maio 2010

A melody brought out of the thorns
Plays a song born out of love and storms
If that was the last time I’d see you
How could you think I could live without you?

A hand that moves to draw little words
Turns visible the feelings unspoken
How could you think you could close your eyes,
And choose not to see the morning rise?

If that’s what it means to disappear…

Oh there are these words to be said
There are acts unfinished
Oh these unspoken words!
This is the poetry of my loss

You asked me which way I would choose
The one which would not imply leaving you
So how could you think you could just leave me,
If there’s no other way than to be with you?

I wish I could have disappeared
Just not to face the turning of that page
Oh my life is not the same without you
This emptiness is too hard to deal with

If that’s what it means to go away…

Brigde:
I feel like I don’t know you
Oh this distance I can’t stand!
I wish we could come back in time
Just to hold your hand one more time

Hand In The Dark



Hand in the dark
Música e letra de Sílvia Barcelos
Para Maria Cardoso
15 Abril 2010
 
I chose this night to sing about the day I met you
Your smile captured me
I tried to understand the way you made it to survive
Against all your tears

I know this life hasn’t been fair to you
And I’ve been blind all this time

I miss all those days you used to call me
I miss spending hours talking to you
And even silence was a refuge
Where you would find my hand in the dark

Please forgive me if I took too long to understand
What you hid behind those eyes
And please forgive me if I could not realize
What it means to be alone

I feel like I’ve lost more than what I’ve gained
Through that time I was away

You did try to put an end to this line
But I could not let you go
I’ll walk this road with you all the way home
So please keep holding on
