Romeo And Juliet - Dire Straits

Romeo And Juliet

Dire Straits


Lyrics:
A lovestruck Romeo sang the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"


Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"


"Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start

And I bet, and you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"


Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

When you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold

You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold

You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Now you just say "oh, Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"

"Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die'
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"


I can't do the talk like they talk on the TV

And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and bad company

All I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion
Julie, I'd do the stars with you any time


"Juliet, when we made love you used to cry

You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die'

There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?"

 And a lovestruck Romeo, he sang the streets of serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?
You and me, babe, how about it?"

Letra:
Un Romeo herido de amor canta su serenata por las calles
Dando la tabarra a todo el mundo con la canción de amor que ha escrito.
Encuentra una farola, sale un momento de la sombra
Y dice algo así como: “Tú y yo Nena, ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?”

Julieta dice, “Eh, si es Romeo, casi consigues que me dé un infarto!”
Él está bajo la ventana, y ella se pone a cantar “Oíd, mi novio ha vuelto.
No deberías venir por aquí despertando a esta gente con tus canciones…
De todos modos, qué piensas hacer al respecto?”

“Julieta, los dados estaban trucados desde el principio
y yo aposté y tú estallaste en mi corazón
y olvidé, olvidé la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

Venimos de calles diferentes, las dos eran calles de vergüenza
ambas sucias, ambas pobres, pero nuestro sueño era el mismo
Y soñé tu sueño por ti, y ahora tu sueño se ha hecho realidad
¿Cómo puedes mirarme como si sólo fuera uno más de tus líos?

Cuando puedes dejarte engatusar por cadenas de plata tú puedes dejarte engatusar por cadenas de oro
Puedes dejarte engatusar por guapos desconocidos y por las promesas que te hagan.
Tú me lo prometiste todo, en lo bueno y en lo malo, dijiste, sí.
Y ahora vas diciendo “Oh Romeo, sí, ya sabes, tuve un rollo con él”

“Julieta, cuando hacíamos el amor solías llorar

Decías “Te quiero tanto como estrellas hay en el firmamento, te querré hasta que me muera”.
Hay un lugar para nosotros, ya conoces la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

No sé dar discursos como los que salen por la tele
y no sé escribir una canción de amor en condiciones
No puedo hacer cualquier cosa, pero haría cualquier cosa por ti.
No sé hacer otra cosa que estar enamorado de ti.

Y lo único que hago es echarte de menos y echar de menos lo que teníamos.
Y lo único que hago es dejarme llevar por las malas compañías
Todo lo que hago es besarte desde las barras de Orión.
Julieta, iría contigo hasta las estrellas sin pensármelo!

Julieta, cuando hacíamos el amor solías llorar

Decías “Te quiero tanto como estrellas hay en el firmamento, te querré hasta que me muera”.
Hay un lugar para nosotros, ya conoces la canción de la película.
¿Cuándo vas a darte cuenta de que simplemente no era el momento adecuado, Julieta?

Y un Romeo herido de amor canta su serenata por las calles
Dando la tabarra a todo el mundo con la canción de amor que ha escrito.
Encuentra una farola adecuada, sale un momento de la sombra
dice algo así como: “Tú y yo Nena, ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?”
Tú y yo Nena ¿qué hay de lo nuestro?

§1 - Opeth

 §1 Opeth Lyrics: Draped in death, the howl of lore Draped in death, the howl of lore   Alas, my time is at an end I have wallowed in self-pity And I confess to you As part of final plight   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   A syndicates mass in the waiting room Like spiders weave And rumors spread fast above regal tombs Enacted grief   I will here unearth the secrets I've been hiding (hiding, hiding) And guide my children through my trials   Put your trust in my command I thin the blood. I lift my hand   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   Letra: Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición   Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición     Ay, mi tiempo ha llegado...

War Pigs - Black Sabbath

War Pigs Black Sabbath Lyrics:  Generals gathered in their masses Just like witches at black masses Evil minds that plot destruction Sorcerers of death's construction In the fields the bodies burning As the war machine keeps turning Death and hatred to mankind Poisoning their brainwashed minds, Oh, Lord yeah! Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor Time will tell them they are power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait 'til their Judgement Day comes, Yeah! Now in darkness, world stops turning Ashes where their bodies burning No more war pigs at the power Hand of God has struck the hour Day of Judgement, God is calling On their knees the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan, laughing, spreads his wings Oh, Lord yeah! -------------------------------------------- Letra: Generales reunidos...

Pit Of Consciousness - Jinjer

Pit Of Consciousness Jinjer Lyrics: I keep on losing the keys From reality And now I'm passing on the wheel To insanity. In a secluded corner Waiting for my time to come Waiting for the bedlam To be pacified I am climbing hand over fist And I scratch concrete Shine in the end my mistake It's not there The air is terribly heavy here It settles inside And I suffer burn after burn From the dark. Burn In a pit of consciousness Skull is bleeding So I feel there was someone else Before me. Eyes are changing colors A stranger knocks on my mind I became a foreigner To myself! Myself! Stillness stuns. Wish I'd run Creeped away to the light In my head someone else Setting snares For my soul In the darkest place What was once named consciousness I'm a miniature I'm a sketch forfeiting outlines Irrelevant entity to sanity A hive for nonsense For multiple selves Resonating, but never c...
