Текст песни Guido's Song - Daniel Day-Lewis

I would like to be here, I would like to be there
I would like to be everywhere at once
I know that′s a contradiction in terms
And it's a problem especially when my body′s nearing fifty
As my mind is nearing ten
I can hardly stay up, I can't get to sleep
And I don't want to wake tomorrow morning at the bottom of some heap
But why take it so seriously?
After all, there′s nothing at stake here only me
I want to be young and I want to be old
I would like to be wise before my time
And yet be foolish and brash and bold
I would like the universe to get down on its knees
And say, "Guido, whatever you please
It′s okay even if it's impossible we′ll arrange it"
That's all that I want
I am lusting for more, should I settle for less?
I ask you what′s a good thing for if not for taking it to excess?
One limitation I dearly regret, there's only one of me I′ve ever met
I would like to have another me to travel along with myself
I would even like to be able to sing a duet with myself
I would like to be here, sing along with myself
In a song to be there walking down a lane now
Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere
That's a contradiction in terms
I want to be here with a counter here
Melody in the here, top of the morning to you
Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido
Guido, Guido, Me, me, me
I want to be Proust or the Marquis De Sade
I would like to be Christ, Mohammed, Buddha
But not have to believe in God
And you know I mean it with all of my heart
It's the end if something important doesn′t start
I want to be young but I have to be old
What I want is a tale of sound and fury that some idiot went and told
I would like the universe to get down on its knees
And say, "Guido, whatever you please
It′s okay even if it's ridiculous we′ll arrange it"
So arrange it
That's all that I want
Guido, Guido
Guido, Guido
Guido, Guido
Contini, Contini, Contini, Contini
Contini, Contini, Contini, Contini
Guido, Guido
