like the flowing river

be like the flowing river.
silent in the night.
be not afraid of the dark.
if there are stars in the sky,
reflect them back.
if there are clouds in the sky,
remember, clouds, like the river, are water.
so, gladly reflect them too,
in your own tranquil depths.

Manu Chao

I found a CD given by my bro, Sean. He gave it to me 2 years ago when he came home from SF. It is a CD by Manu Chao. I really love the song, it's reggae, but unlike ordinary reggae - idk what makes it unsual. hehehehe. however, what I like from Manu Chao is that he sings in many languages: english, spanish, french, portuguese, marocoan. damN! I wonder how could he talks in so many languages XD

Here is one of the songs that I like the lyric and its melody:
:


Trapped By Love
Manu Chao

When you come I'm feeling better
Sky is blue you said forever
ooh ooh, I've been trapped by love
Then you go so change the weather
Sky is grey bit more than ever

ooh ooh
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love...

So my beer now taste so bitter
But i can't find anything sweeter
ooh ooh, I've been trapped by love
Then you come and I feel better
See my eyes they're full of water
then again you go so change the weather

Asking for the next together
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love...

When you come I'm feeling better
Sky is blue you said forever
ooh ooh, I've been trapped by love
Then you come and I feel better
See my eyes they're full of water
Then again you go so change the weather

Asking for the next together
Asking for the next together

I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
I've been trapped by love
