estradas perdidas

Atrás de casa, encoberta por tufos de erva daninha, silvas e bidões abandonados, o comboio de janelas iluminadas vinha das Quintãs e silvou depois do túnel em curva, em direcção a Aveiro. Ali ao lado há uma estrada, a minha primeira estrada. Mulheres e homens cruzam-na impelindo teimosamente os pedais das bicicletas. Junto à vitrine de um pronto-a-vestir lê-se "Modas Katita". De uma taberna, saem dois homens que se dirigem para duas Famel-Zundapp. Estrada perdida.

All I'm thinkin' about

"All I am Thinkin’ About"
Bruce Springsteen


Blind man wavin’ by the side of the road
I’m in a flat bed Ford Carrying a heavy load
With a sweet thing sippin’ on a blueberry wine
On a flat black highway down in Carolina
Black bird slippin’ in a sky of blue

All I’m thinkin’ about is you, baby
All I’m thinking about is you, honey
All I’m thinking about is you, baby
All I’m thnkin’ about is you
Ain’t nothin’ in this world I can do about it
All I’m thinkin’ about is you

Little boy carryin’ a fishin’ pole
Little girl pickin’ berries straight off the vine
Brown bag filled with a little green toad
We hook’em through the lip and throw’em off the line
Your sweet brown legs got me feeling so blue

All I’m thinkin’ about is you, baby
All I’m thinking about is you
All I’m thinking about is you, baby
All I’m thnkin’ about is you
Ain’t nothin’ in this world I can do about it
All I’m thinkin’ about is you

Black car shinin’ on a Sunday morn
Mama go to church now, Mama go to church now
Friday night daddy’s shirt is torn
Daddy’s goin’ downtown, daddys’ goin’ downtown
Ain’t no one understand this sweet thing we do

All I’m thinkin’ about is you, baby
All I’m thinking about is you
All I’m thinking about is you, baby
All I’m thnkin’ about is you
Ain’t nothin’ in this world I can do about it
All I’m thinkin’ about is you

Field turned up, the seed is sowed
Rain comin’ in from over’ cross the road
Big black curtain comin’ cross the field
Blind’ll See, the lame will be healed
Brown eyed girl, I turned my back on you, now it’s lonely

All I’m thinkin’ about is you, babe
All I’m thinking about is you
All I’m thinking about is you, babe
All I’m thnkin’ about is you
Ain’t nothin’ in this world take away these blues
All I’m thinkin’ about is you

All I’m thinkin’ about is you, babe
All I’m thinking about is you
All I’m thinking about is you
All I’m thinkin’ about is you
Ain’t nothin’ in this world I can do about it
All I’m thinkin’ about is you
