Dulcet


Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Ricky : Post Vida Loca

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we love him in Latin America.



Vuelve!
Que sin ti la vida se me va.
Oh, vuelve!
Que me falta el aire si tu no estas.
Oh, vuelve!
Nadie ocupara tu lugar.

~*~

* Vuelve by Ricky Martin
** I would've preferred him in jeans and a white t-shirt because NOBODY looks better than this man in jeans and a t-shirt.

A Virtual Serenade from mi Cariño

All I do is dream of you
The whole night through
With the dawn I still go on
Dreamin' of you

You're every thought, you're everything
You're every song I ever sing
Summer, winter, autumn and spring

And were there more than twenty-four hours a day
They'd be spent in sweet content dreamin' away

Sky's are gray, sky's are blue
Morning, noon and nighttime, too
All I do the whole day through is dream of you

~*~

* All I Do is Dream of You. Performed by Michael Bublé.

** As an aside: I couldn't believe it when my sister called about 3 weeks ago to ask if I had ever heard Michael Bublé. I told her that I was pretty sure that she was the last person to have found out about him. ;)

Did someone say Magic?!


Alegria
Come un lampo di vita
Alegria
Come un pazzo gridare
Alegria
Del delittuoso grido
Bella ruggente pena,
Seren
Come la rabbia di amar
Alegria
Come un assalto di gioia

--
* Alegria by Cirque Du Soleil
** This song was gifted to me many years ago and brings back lovely memories. I hadn't heard it in a long time and a recent conversation reminded me of it. It takes me back to magical times. :)

Feeling Sexy

If I could bottle up the chills you give me,
I would keep them in a jar next to my bed.
And if I should ever draw a picture of a woman,
it is you that would come flowing from my pen, yeah.

Leaving your clothes on the floor
Making me walk out the door and
I still fail to understand what it is about this woman.

Oooo, oh

Helplessly melting as I stand next to the sun
and as she burned me, I am screaming out for more.
Drink every drop of liquid heat that I've become,
pop me open spit me out onto the floor.

Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand what it is about this woman.*

Yummy!**



You're not the best thing that I knew
Never was, never cared too much
For all this hanging around
It's just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want
Never get too close to the end of the line
You're just the same thing that I knew back before the time
When I was only for you

This is it now
Everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

~*~

* This is How a Heart Breaks by Rob Thomas.

** I've never had so much difficulty selecting a single picture to post. This man is incredibly photogenic. Between his perfect hair (regardless of length or style) and his intensely expressive eyes...he's the thing that dreams are made of.

Three by Gaia Consort


One – strong at the core of my being I stand
One – dreaming of someone who knows,
who might understand that

Every touch our grace is multiplied
Every kiss our souls are opened wide
Every moment is precious and sanctified

Two – joyous and trembling I celebrate you
Two – boundless and teeming there's no end to what we can do when

Every touch our grace is multiplied
Every kiss our souls are opened wide
Every moment is precious and sanctified

And our time is filling like cups of honey wine
Sweeter the water, the deeper the well
Life is spilling out all over
We're spilling out over ourselves

Three – infinite new possibilities
Three – doesn't it seem like there's no end to what we can be when

Every touch our grace is multiplied
Every kiss our souls are opened wide
Every moment is precious and sanctified

And our time is filling like cups of honey wine
Sweeter the water, the deeper the well
Life is spilling out all over
We're spilling out over ourselves

Four – who knows what the future will bring
Four – now I know three works I'm open to possibly more

Every touch our grace is multiplied
Every kiss our souls are opened wide
Every moment is precious and sanctified

And our time is filling like cups of honey wine
Sweeter the water, the deeper the well
Life is spilling out all over
I'm spilling out over myself

And our time is filling like cups of honey wine
Sweeter the water, the deeper the well
Life is spilling out all over
We're spilling out over ourselves

But we're basically three
Well six with the kids but you know what I mean
Basically three – basically three
