LYRICS GAME

If I'm alone you welcome me, you are my faithful company

You speak to me sincerely and you wait for me when the day begins

My guide, my lighthouse of Alexandria, if you see me lost

I look at you and erase sadness in a sigh

You give meaning to my existence, your disobedience

You, mere presence deserves my reverence

You gave me a gift, you were my sword

Always locked in your prison if inspiration was lacking

From nothing you embrace me, you don't forbid or threaten

So romantic and authentic, you never disguise yourself

Like a fairy and an executioner, firm shield in the battle

You, whom I turn to if others fail

You give me challenges, adventures and responsibility

You give me success and money, you take away my privacy

You demand that I create, you make me tremble, dream, you heal me

You choose me to speak if the streets are mute

You strip me with tenderness and I feel your touch and your scent

If I see you fly free amid the voice of a singer-songwriter

You are Opera and Flamenco, you are all that I have and I love you

While you sprout among the notes of a piano

And you disintegrate me painting these black nights

You cheer me, invade me, evade me, drive away the darkness

And you resurrect me always, you never lie to me

You are the vessel where tears are poured

You are Tango and you are rhythm, you live in do, re, mi, fa

Unpredictable beat when you dress as Jazz

You arrive and give me oxygen, my only sleeping pill

If lethal stress tightens my muscles, disciple

Of your immense mastery when I didn't know you

How could I live without perceiving your melody

You were mine and only mine in my hours of misery

You compose the soundtrack of this tragicomedy

You queen among a thousand kings, summit of my valleys

You levitate me and thus prevent so much hate from mowing me down

You, if you're Hip-Hop you show protest and charisma

But you dress in classical and you keep being the same

It is you, my luck, it is you, so strong, it is you

You, so different

You arise and suddenly life forgets death

Impossible to have you if you are born from a staff

If drama lies in my bed

You open enormous windows for me

Your flame never goes out, light of eternal youth

When you cry plucking a Blues guitar

It is you, the dirty torn rage of Kurt Cobain

The sincere commitment of Marvin Gaye

The greatness of John Coltrane improvising with the sax

The childlike gaze in the eyes of Michael Jackson

And it's that your sound seduced me, your light left me perplexed and I fell

I came back to life like the sun in the shape of Soul and R&B

I drank from you the elixir and I resisted the blows

If I was clumsy I finally found my north, my support

Among chords of Mark Knopfler

Drum rolls of Herbie Hancock

From Vivaldi to Elvis, from Verdi to Jack Berry

Immortal musical pieces make time stop

They explode like bombs provoking lethal waves

Of hope, of breath and life, my great friend

Only you make effective all the phrases that I say

My balance, my peace, my druid, in fatigue

Only you make real the dreams that I pursue

And it's that without you there is no destiny, only stone and a thousand roads

Without you, I'm a mime trembling in the dressing room

But you shelter my voices if you see me disoriented

And you dance a Waltz with me like two lovers

You are the immortal key that opens this mental prison

From Tiste-tutanclan to Silvio's "I wish"

I envy the power that you impose in songs

You awaken my emotions

With creations by Ennio Morricone

Sensations out of control when you are Rock n' Roll

The eroticism of a flat in the voice of Diana Krall

The electric guitar solo that breaks the silence

The harmonica hidden in Stevie Wonder's hands

I saw you where everything ends and Nothing Sira with Black Sabbath

You breathe life with the calm that Bob Dylan inspires

You oscillate and possess James Brown, you move his body

Along with Freddie Mercury

Ray Charles will never have died

And it's true it doesn't matter if you sound with a harp or an Akai

With the class of Frank Sinatra or of Barry White

You are the enigmatic metric that wraps my being and saves it

The language with which the gods speak

You are music
