Un playlist de Toto (Con sus letras)



HOLD THE LINE

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you'll stay till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine 
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the words that you told me
It's not in the way you say you're mine 
It's not in the way that you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you do

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way that you make me feel
You see
It's all about the way you do the things you do
The way you do it
You've got to hold it
Hold it

Hold the line
Love isn't always on time

AFRICA

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in twelve-thirty flight
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say: "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

I´LL BE OVER YOU

Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same


There were the nights holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them
Someday I'll be over you

ROSANNA

All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see you eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me, Rosanna

All I wanna do in the middle of the evening is hold you tight
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know you were looking for more than I could ever be

Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna 
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna 
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna 

I can see your face still shining through the window on the other side
Rosanna, Rosanna
I didn't know that a girl like you could make me feel so sad, Rosanna

All I wanna tell you is now you'll never ever have to compromise
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that losing you could ever hurt so bad

Not quite a year since she went away, Rosanna 
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna 
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna 

Not quite a year since she went away,
Who is it? Rosanna
Now she's gone and I have to say

Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna
Meet you all the way, meet you all the way, Rosanna

99

99
I've been waiting so long
Oh 99
Where did we go wrong
Oh 99
I love you

99
I keep breaking your heart
Oh 99
How can we be apart
Oh 99
I love you

I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know i love you 99

99
You keep holding my hand
Oh 99
They don't know who i am
Oh 99
I love you

I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know i love you 99

99
I can't take it no more
Oh 99
Oh we were so sure
Oh 99
I love you

I never thought it would happen
I feel quite the same
I don't want to hurt you anymore
I never knew it would work out
No one to blame
You know i love you 99


HOLYANNA

Your hair's a mess
You better put on a dress
And get your feet back on the ground
You fix your eyes
For some city guys
Who wouldn't save you if you drowned
You hang on Forty-second street
And do your homework in the bar
Saint Helen says you're missin' school
And I'm wond'rin' where you are

Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery

You read your books
Until nobody looks
And then you slip out after dark
You steal my love
Then say you're sorry
And do your penance in the park
You fooled your mother when you skipped ballet
To paint your face for the midnight show
And in the morning you knelt beside your bed
And prayed she'd never know

Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery

Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, what you do to me
Holyanna
Holyanna
Girl, you're a blue-eyed mystery

PAMELA

Side by side
I'll be yours forever
Yes I will
Rain or shine
Any kind of weather
Any kind

There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
Let's take what's getting old and make it new

Eye to eye
It's a blinding confrontation
I said you and I
are a deadly combination

So don't start mixing truth with jealousy
The road we're on is clear as far as I can see

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time
Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind

Black and white
Always go together
And on day and night
You're the precious jewel I treasure

Wanting every part of you is not a crime
Could it be that you're the one who's wrong this time

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time
Pamela
There is no second second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind
Leave all

Oh Pamela
Thousands of miles away but always in my heart

Pamela
So don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time
Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all behind

Pamela
Don't break this heart of mine
Just remember it may not heal this time
Pamela
There is no second chance
For the one who leaves it all
Leave all beind

I still love you little girl
I still love you
And you know it little Pamela
I still love you yes I do
And you know it little Pamela
Come on
Oh little Pamela

I WON´T HOLD YOU BACK (LIVE)

If I had another chance tonight
I'd try to tell you that the things we had were right
Time can't erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

Now you're gone, I'm really not the same,
I guess I have myself to blame
Time can't erase the things we said
But it gives me time to realize that you're the one instead

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found 
You know I can't hold you back now

Now that I'm alone it gives me time to think about the years that you were mine
Time can erase the love we shared
But it gives me time to realize just how much you cared

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found (Listen to me baby)
You know I can't hold you back now

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found
You know I can't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found

You know I won't hold you back now
The love we had just can't be found 
You know I can't hold you back now

Alejandro Dolina - La aventura del conocimiento y el aprendizaje

"La aventura del conocimiento y el aprendizaje".

Por Alejandro Dolina

En los últimos años han aparecido en nuestro medio numerosos institutos y establecimientos que enseñan cosas con toda rapidez: “….haga el bachillerato en 6 meses, vuélvase perito mercantil en 3 semanas, avívese de golpe en 5 días, alcance el doctorado en 10 minutos”. Quizá se supriman algunos… detalles. ¿Qué detalles? Desconfío. Yo he pasado 7 años de mi vida en la escuela primaria, 5 en el colegio secundario y 4 en la universidad. Y a pesar de que he malgastado algunas horas tirando tinteros al aire, fumando en el baño o haciendo rimas chuscas. Y no creo que ningún genio recorra en un ratito el camino que a mí me llevó decenios.
¿Por qué florecen estos apurones educativos? Quizá por el ansia de recompensa inmediata que tiene la gente. A nadie le gusta esperar. Todos quieren cosechar, aún sin haber sembrado. Es una lamentable característica que viene acompañando a los hombres desde hace milenios.
A causa de este sentimiento algunos se hacen chorros. Otros abandonan la ingeniería para levantar quiniela. Otros se resisten a leer las historietas que continúan en el próximo número. Por esta misma ansiedad es que tienen éxito las novelas cortas, los teleteatros unitarios, los copetines al paso, las “señoritas livianas”, los concursos de cantores, los libros condensados, las máquinas de tejer, las licuadoras y en general, todo aquello que ahorre la espera y nos permita recibir mucho entregando poco.
Todos nosotros habremos conocido un número prodigioso de sujetos que quisieran ser ingenieros, pero no soportan las funciones trigonométricas. O que se mueren por tocar la guitarra, pero no están dispuestos a perder un segundo en el solfeo. O que le hubiera encantado leer a Dostoievsky, pero les parecen muy extensos sus libros. Lo que en realidad quieren estos sujetos es disfrutar de los beneficios de cada una de esas actividades, sin pagar nada a cambio. Quieren el prestigio y la guita que ganan los ingenieros, sin pasar por las fatigas del estudio. Quieren sorprender a sus amigos tocando “Desde el Alma” sin conocer la escala de si menor. Quieren darse aires de conocedores de literatura rusa sin haber abierto jamás un libro.
No me gusta. No me gusta que se fomente el deseo de obtener mucho entregando poco. Y menos me gusta que se deje caer la idea de que el conocimiento es algo tedioso y poco deseable. ¡No señores: aprender es hermoso y lleva la vida entera!
El que verdaderamente tiene vocación de guitarrista jamás preguntará en cuanto tiempo alcanzará a acompañar la zamba de Vargas.
Todo tiene su costo y el que no quiere afrontarlo es un garronero de la vida. De manera que aquel que no se sienta con ánimo de vivir la maravillosa aventura de aprender, es mejor que no aprenda. Yo propongo a todos los amantes sinceros del conocimiento el establecimiento de cursos prolongadísimos, con anuncios en todos los periódicos y en las estaciones del subterráneo.
“Aprenda a tocar la flauta en 100 años”.
“Aprenda a vivir durante toda la vida”.
“Aprenda. No le prometemos nada, ni el éxito, ni la felicidad, ni el dinero. Ni siquiera la sabiduría. Tan solo los deliciosos sobresaltos del aprendizaje”.
