Não consegui ver o show da Cibelle que rolou há algumas semanas no Auditório Ibirapuera. Segundo me contaram não perdi muito, parece que a apresentação ficou bastante comprometida por performances “abravanistas” e problemas técnicos de som. Enfim, graças ao boletim semanal do Resfest, encontrei este vídeo bacana da Cibelle cantando de uma das minhas músicas favoritas: Green Grass do Tom Waits.
Green Grass (Tom Waits, Real Gone, 2004)
Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me
Come closer don’t be shy
Stand beneath a rainy sky
The moon is over the rise
Think of me as a train goes by
Clear the thistles and brambles
Whistle ‘Didn’t He Ramble’
Now there’s a bubble of me
and it’s floating in thee
Stand in the shade of me
Things are now made of me
The weather vane will say:
It smells like rain today
God took the stars and he tossed ‘em
Can’t tell the birds from the blossoms
You’ll never be free of me
He’ll make a tree from me
Don’t say good bye to me
Describe the sky to me
And if the sky falls, mark my words
we’ll catch mocking birds
Lay your head where my heart used to be
Hold the earth above me
Lay down in the green grass
Remember when you loved me
