Ho letto che il picco sarà fra le 22 e le 23 di stanotte. Sto parlando delle Leonidi, le stelle cadenti d’inverno che stanotte illumineranno il nostro cielo.
Provengono dalla costellazione del Leone e si formano ogni anno, intorno al 17 novembre, quando l’orbita terrestre incontra la scia dei detriti della cometa Tempel-Tuttle.
Quest’estate mi sono persa le “lacrime di San Lorenzo”. Per svariati motivi. Stanotte ci riprovo. Esprimerò un desiderio per ogni stella cadente che vedrò. E se non le dovessi vedere… lo esprimerò ugualmente. Sperare costa davvero poco. Sperare aiuta ad andare avanti e a stare meglio. Senza illudersi. Solo sperare.
Stars (Simply Red)
anyone who ever held you
would tell you the way i’m feeling
anyone who ever wanted you
would try to tell you what i feel inside
the only thing i ever wanted
was the feeling that you ain’t faking
the only one you ever thought about
wait a minute can’t you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i, i feel you
i hope you comprehend
for the man who tried to hurt you
he’s explaining the way i’m feeling
for all the jealousy i caused you
states the reason why i’m trying to hide
as for all the things you taught me
it sends my future into clearer dimensions
you’ll never know how much you hurt me
stay a minute can’t you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i, i feel you
i hope you comprehend
too many hearts are broken
a lover’s promise never came with a maybe
so many words are left unspoken
the silent voices are driving me crazy
as for all the pain you caused me
making up could never be your intention
you’ll never know how much you hurt me
stay can’t you see that i
i wanna fall from the stars
straight into your arms
i, i fell you
i hope you comprehend
