Hazy shade of winter

Time, time, time, see what’s become of me
While I looked around
For my possibilities
I was so hard to please
But look around, leaves are brown
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hear the salvation army band
Down by the riverside, it’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you’ve got planned
Carry your cup in your hand
And look around, leaves are brown now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hang on to your hopes, my friend
That’s an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
Look around, the grass is high
The fields are ripe, it’s the springtime of my life

Ahhh, seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won’t you stop and remember me
At any convenient time
Funny how my memory slips while looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme
Drinking my vodka and lime

But look around, leaves are brown now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Look around, leaves are brown
There’s a patch of snow on the ground…

i never thought tonight could ever be
this close to me

just try to see in the dark
just try to make it work
to feel the fear before you’re here
i make the shapes come much too close
i pull my eyes out
hold my breath
and wait until i shake…

but if i had your faith
then i could make it safe and clean
if only i was sure
that my head on the door was a dream

i’ve waited hours for this
i’ve made myself so sick

if only i was sure that my head on the door was a dream to

Hoje foi aprovado pela maioria socialista o Orçamento de Estado para 2008.
Antes de ser aprovado, todos sustiveram a respiração quando Manuel Alegre pediu a palavra - todos terão pensado que o deputado-poeta se iria revoltar contra o futuro reservado às Estradas de Portugal, ou quanto a qualquer uma das outras situações revoltantes do Orçamento de Estado (continuação do congelamento salarial da função publica, financiamento insuficiente do ensino superior, investimento cada vez menor na saude, etc etc) , mas… na realidade foi isto que aconteceu:
