The Cure - Lullaby (Lyrics)

Não tanto pelo som da tua voz, como pelas palavras
Não tanto pelo perfume que me desperta os sentidos
Não tanto pelo sonho, tornado realidade
Não tanto pela boca, como pelos beijos
Não tanto pelos olhos... como pelo olhar

Esse olhar...

O teu olhar vale mais que mil silêncios, mil palavras, mil gritos...
Os gritos que me abafam, as palavras que não digo e os silêncios onde me refugio, tão livre, onde as tuas asas me levam

Lullaby (letra)

I spy something beginning with s...

on candystripe legs the spiderman comes
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
looking for the victim shivering in bed
searching out fear in the gathering gloom and
suddenly!
a movement in the corner of the room!
and there is nothing i can do
when i realize with fright
that the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!

quietly he laughs and shaking his head
creeps closer now
closer to the foot of the bed
and softer than shadow and quicker than flies
his arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
don't struggle like that or i will only love you more
for it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"

and i feel like i'm being eaten
by a thousand million shivering furry holes
and i know that in the morning i will wake up
in the shivering cold

and the spiderman is always hungry...

"Come into my parlour", said the spider to the fly... "I have something... "
