And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cuz I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cuz sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
Cuz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am (bis)

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

I never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
let it take me where it wants to go
Till you open the door there's so much more
I've never seen it before
I was trying to fly but i couldn't find wings
You came along and you changed everything

You lift my feet off the ground
you spin me around
you make me crazier, crazier
Feels like i'm falling And i
Lost in your eyes
you make me crazier, crazier, crazier

I watched from a distance as you
made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And you made it so real

You showed me something that I couldn't see
You opened my eyes and you made me believe

You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
you make me crazier, crazier
Feels like im falling And i
lost in your eyes
you make me crazier, crazier, crazier

Baby you showed me what living is for
I don't want to hide anymore

You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like im falling
And I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier, crazier, crazier

How about a round of applause
A standing ovation

You look so dumb right now
Standing outside my house
Trying to apologize
You’re so ugly when you cry
Please, just cut it out

Don’t tell me you’re sorry cuz you’re not
Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show
You really had me going
But now it’s time to go
Curtain’s finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it’s over now
Go on and take a bow

Grab your clothes and get gone
You better hurry up before the sprinklers come on
Talkin’ about, girl, I love you, you’re the one
This just looks like the re-run
Please, what else is on

Don’t tell me you’re sorry cuz you’re not
Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show
You really had me going
But now it’s time to go
Curtain’s finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it’s over now
Go on and take a bow

Oh, and the award for best liar goes to you
For make me believe that you could be
Faithful to me
Lets hear you speech out
How about a round of applause
A standing ovation

But you put on quite a show
You really had me going
But now it’s time to go
Curtain’s finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it’s over now
Go on and take a bow

But it’s over now

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO6D_BAuYCI

This thing called love I just can't handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love

This thing (this thing) called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love

There goes my baby
She knows how to Rock'n'Roll
She drives my crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat

I gotta be cool relax get hip!
Get on my track's
Take a back seat
Hitch hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love

I gotta be cool relax get hip!
Get on my track's
Take a back seat
Hitch hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love

This thing called love I just can't handle it
This thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love...

Open Arms

Steve Perry

was released in 1981

Album: Escape

Lying beside you, here in the dark
Feeling your heartbeat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are, by my side

So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms

Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you
Wanting you near
How much I wanted you home

But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay

So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am, with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me
Open arms

Fixing mistakes I

After a month of the earthquake there's still work to do, Chile's reconstruction.
Not only for the government, also is needed the support of all the Chileans,
Many peolple already have cooperated with the cause, with food and clothes, also with money. But now what they need are volunteers to construct houses in the south.
Already are many people that were or they are going to help to the needy people.
I hope that the process is quick and like that let's be able to overcome this tragedy that devastated us.

"As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live" by Goethe

This phrase means that when you trust yourself, your abilities, your talents and all the good things that characterize you. You can use it to be a better person because if you are a better person you will have a better life.

There are people who do not know who they are and they do not have confidence in themselves. All their projects of life do not work and they are unstable.

Because of that it is good to take a time just with yourself and think, think about who you are, what have you done well, what have you done bad. If you know yourself, you will know the way you have to take to live better, “you will know how to live”.
