A letter to Susi and Valerie

“A letter is always better than a phone call. People write things in letters they would never say in person. They permit themselves to write down feelings and observations using emotional syntax far more intimate and powerful than speech will allow.”

Evita

María Eva "Evita" Duarte Perón was the wife of populist Argentine president Juan Perón during the 1940's and 1950's. Evita was a very important part of her husband's power: although he was beloved by the poor and working classes, she was even more so. A gifted speaker and tireless worker, she dedicated her life to making Argentina a better place for the disenfranchised, and they responded by creating a cult of personality to her that exists to this day.

Mail

“Strange as it may seem, I still hope for the best, even though the best, like an interesting piece of mail, so rarely arrives, and even when it does it can be lost so easily.”

London, London

London, London

I'm wandering round and round, nowhere to go

I'm lonely in London, London, is lovely so

I cross the streets without fear, everybody keeps the way clear

I know, I know, there's no one here to say hello

I know they keep the way clear, I am lonely in London without fear

I'm wandering round and round, nowhere to go

While my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

But my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

Oh, Sunday, Monday, Autumn pass by me

And people hurry on so peacefully

A group approach the policeman, he seems so pleased to please them

It's good to live at least and I agree

He seemed so pleased at least and it's so good to live in peace

And Sunday, Monday years and I agree

While my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

But my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

I choose no face to look at, choose no way

I just happen to be here and it's ok

Green grass, blue eyes, gray sky, God bless, silent, pain and happiness

I came around to say yes, and I say

Green grass, blue eyes, gray sky, God bless, silent, pain and happiness

I came around to say yes, and I say

While my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

But my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

While my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

Yes my eyes, go looking for flying saucers in the sky

Io ti voglio bene, Italia mia.

My heart is torn in two. Why? Because my father was Italian. So this my tribute to the land

of my ancestors. And, yes Italia , io ti voglio bene ( Italia, I love you).

I can hear you answering back: anche io, amore mio. ( me too, my love)

Send me an Angel

Send Me An Angel

Sometimes I feel like I don't belong anywhere

It's gonna take so long for me to get to somewhere

Sometimes I feel so heavy hearted

But I can't explain cause I'm so guarded

But that's a lonely road to travel

And a heavy load to bear

And it's a long, long way to heaven

But I gotta get there...

Can you send an angel?

Can you send an angel?

Cause I don't wanna feel

Like a dove with no wings

And I don't wanna know

What a heart of stone sings

But that's a lonely road to travel

And a heavy load to bear

And it's a long, long way to heaven

But I gotta get there

Can you send an angel?

Can you send me an angel?

Please send me an angel

Can you send me an angel?
