Me and Mrs,Jones

Isso não é simples

não é leve. E 

não se resolve com frases prontas 

não existe um caminho 

para lidar com isso 

não basta reconhecer o que se está sentindo 

nem mesmo entendo o que está em jogo, 

é real o medo, um escultor 

pode parecer simples   importa proteger o que é importante

esse retrovisor...

"Me and Mrs. Jones" by Billy Paul (November 4, 1972)




Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong to let it go now

We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty, and no one knows she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the jukebox plays our favorite song

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong to let it go now

We got be extra careful
That we don't bill our hopes up too high
Cause she's got her own obligation
And so, and so you are

Me and Mrs. Mrs. Jones
Mrs, Jones, Mrs Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong to let it go now

Well it's time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine
But tomorrow we'll meet at the same place, the same time

Me and Mrs. Mrs. Jones
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We've got a thing going on

We've gotta be extra careful (Thing going on)
We can't afford to build our hopes up too high
I wanna meet (Thing going on)
And talk with you
At the same place
The same café
The same time
And we're gonna hold hands like we used to
We're gonna talk it over, talk it over
(Thing going on)
We know, they know
And you know and I know that it was wrong
Well I don't think it's wrong
We gotta let it go now
We got a thing going on, a thing going on
