breath after breath
ama! dança!

every day i wake up in this room
and i don’t know
where i come from,
where i’m going to
then i hear the voice

senhora musa da paz
me abraça
me carrega no teu andor

dormir no colo da dor
amiga, arrasa!
a tua mão desenhou
o sonho na areia
agora, entrega de vez
meu rumo
e vida

from where i stand
the truth isn’t black and white
alone we live and die
we love and fight
breath after breath
we carry this mortal coil
safe for tomorrow

do i dare
oh do i dare
follow through the goorsteps
my whole body hears
beating on my heart like a feather
beating of a moment til i disappear

diga uma palavra alegre
manda um recado
que seja agora
faz o mundo ficar novo
e dancar no colo do tal de amor

from where i stand
the truth isn’t black and white
alone we live and die
we love and fight
breath after breath
we carry this mortal coil
safe for tomorrow

circles in sand are washed out into the sea
just as we slip on through to eternity
breath after breath
we carry this mortal coil
safe for tomorrow

diga uma palavra, cara
bem alegre
corre, manda logo um recado
me abraça
faz um clima doce
me arrepia!
chega de sufoco!
me põe louco!
me faz diamante
teu amante
dança ao som do vento
me ensina
basta de sufoco
nao faz jogo…

a flame of love is burning
always
the song is of the planets
oh whooooooo
the dance is to the rhythm of the rain
where everyone is coming from
is coming to

and birth is just a
breath after breath

(bowie)

as they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
you asked for the latest party
with your silicone hump and your ten inchy stump
dressed like a priest you was,
todd browning’s freak you was

crawling down the alley on your hands and knees,
i’m sure you’re not protected
for its plain to see
the diamond dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees
hunt you to the ground they will
mannequins with kill-appeal

will they come?
i keep a friend serene
will they come?
oh, baby, come unto me
will they come?
well, she’s come, been, and gone

come out of the garden, baby
you’ll catch a death in the fog
young girl they call them the diamond dogs
young girl they call them the diamond dogs

now halloween jack is a real cool cat,
and he lives on top of manhattan chase
the elevators broke so he slides down a rope
onto the street below
oh tarzie go man, go

meets his little hussy with his ghost-town approach
her face is sans feature but she wears a dali brooch
sweetly reminiscent something mother used to bake
wrecked up and paralyzed
diamond dogs are sable-ized

will they come?
i keep a friend serene
will they come?
oh, baby, come unto me
will they come?
well, she’s come, been, and gone

(chorus)

in the year of the scavenger the season of the bitch
sashay on the board-walk scurry to the ditch
just another future song lonely little kitch
there’s gonna be sorrow try and wake up tomorrow

will they come?
i keep a friend serene
will they come?
oh, baby, come unto me
will they come?
well, she’s come, been, and gone

(chorus)
