Iluminação, corrupção e busca

Prefiro Joni Mitchell cantando "Black Crow", mas a apresentação de Diana Krall no Youtube tem melhor qualidade. Certas canções que ouço cabem tão dentro de mim que perguntar carece: "como não fui eu que fiz?"

Neste momento de escolhas tão importantes, vejo-me tomando o trem: os trilhos são fixos e o destino é conhecido, mas aonde a viagem nos levará?

Black Crow

by Joni Mitchell   

There's a crow flying
Black and ragged
Tree to tree
He's black as the highway that's leading me
Now he's diving down
To pick up on something shiny
I feel like that black crow
Flying
In a blue sky

I took a ferry to the highway
Then I drove to a pontoon plane
I took a plane to a taxi
And a taxi to a train
I've been traveling so long
How'm I ever going to know my home
When I see it again
I'm like a black crow flying
In a blue blue sky

In search of love and music
My whole life has been
Illumination
Corruption
And diving diving diving diving
Diving down to pick up on every shiny thing
Just like that black crow flying
In a blue sky

I looked at the morning
After being up all night
I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light
I looked out the window
And I saw that ragged soul take flight
I saw a back crow flying
In a blue sky
Oh I'm like a black crow flying
In a blue sky
