DRIVING WITH THE BRAKES ON - Del Amitri

Driving through the long night
trying to figure who's right, and who's wrong
now the kid has gone, I sit belted up tight
she sucks on a match light, glowing bronze, steering on
And I might be more of a man if I stopped this in it's tracks
And said, come on, let's go home.

But she's got the wheel,
And I've got nothing except what I have on.

When you're driving with the brakes on,
When you're swimming with your boots on,
It's hard to say you love someone,
And it's hard to say you don't.

Trying to keep the mood right,
Trying to steer the conversation from
The thing we've done.
She shuts up the ashtray, and I say it's a long way back now hon
She just yawns. And we might get lost someplace,
So desolate that no one where we're from would ever come.
But she's got the wheel and I've got to deal from now on.

When you're driving with the brakes on,
When you're swimming with your boots on,
It's hard to say you love someone,
And it's hard to say you don't.

But unless the moon falls tonight, unless continents collide,
Nothing's gonna make me, break from her side.

'Cause when you're driving with the brakes on,
When you're swimming with your boots on,
It's hard to say you love someone,
And it's hard to say you don't.

It's hard to say you love someone,
And it's hard to say you don't.

- não achei nenhuma tradução que chegasse aos pés do que essa música quer transmitir, então quando eu tiver um tempinho irei traduzi-la, esperando que chegue o mais perto possível do real significado em inglês.

More Than Words - Extreme

Saying 'I Love you' is not the words
I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say But if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me cause I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two

More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real

What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
La la ri la la ri la ri la la la , more than words
la la ri la la ri la... uuuuuuuu uuuuuh...

Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is
Close your eyes and just reach out your hands


And touch me hold me close
Don't ever let me go
More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me cause I'd already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two

More than wordsTo show you feel
That your love for me is real

What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you

Right Now - Van Halem

Don't wanna wait 'til tomorrow
Why put it off another day?
One by one, little problems
Build up, and stand in our way. Oh

One step ahead, one step behind it
Now ya gotta run to get even
Make future plans I'll dream about yesterday, hey!
Come on turn, turn this thing around

(Right now) Hey! It's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) Catch your magic moment
Do it right here and now
It means everything

Miss a beat, you lose a rhythm
An nothin' falls into place. No!
Only missed by a fraction
Slipped a little off your pace. Oh!

The more things you get, the more you want
Just trade in one for another
Workin' so hard to make it easy
Whoa, got to turn. Come on, turn this thing around

(Right now) Hey, it's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) catch that magic moment
Do it right here and now
It means everything

Said a lie to me
Right now
What are ya waitin' for? Oh! Yeah!
Right now

(Guitar Solo)

(Right now) Hey! It's your tomorrow
(Right now) Come on, it's everything
(Right now) Catch that magic moment
And do it right, right now (Right now)
Oh, right now!

It's what's happening
Right here and now
Right now, it's right now
Oh!
Tell me, what are ya waitin' for?
Turn this thing around
