Existem musicas que marcaram a minha memória no passado, de uma forma tão concreta e intensa, que o tempo passa e sempre que as volto a ouvir, consigo sentir o mesmo que senti nesses momentos.



Estrada até Aljezur, ford fieta branco de dois lugares, vidros abertos, o Hugão ao meu lado, sempre com medo dos carros mas comigo nunca o senti muito stressado, hoje já anda no seu smart "à abrir". Férias grandes, amigos e o Alentejo todo por nossa conta, até ao Algarve para terminar na ilha de Tavira, sem horários, sem obrigações, apenas a vontade de estarmos juntos sem nada para fazer, praia, copos, discotecas manhosas, cartas, snooker, matraquilhos, tendas e parques de campismo, muita folia.

Esta musica vem sempre acompanhada da memória de estar no carro a descer para sul, com o Hugo ao meu lado e os dois a cantar, eu mais aos berros que ele.

WELL WE KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOIN'
BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'VE BEEN
AND WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE KNOWIN'
BUT WE CAN'T SAY WHAT WE'VE SEEN
AND WE'RE NOT LITTLE CHILDREN
AND WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT
AND THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN
GIVE US TIME TO WORK IT OUT

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

Feelin' okay this mornin'
And you know,
We're on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go

We're on a ride to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there...take you there

We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
and it's all right, baby, it's all right

And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

Would you like to come along
and you could help me sing this song?
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere
