Ponta de areia
Ponto final
Da Bahia-Minas
Estrada natural
Que ligava Minas
Ao porto do mar
Caminho de ferro
Mandaram arrancar
Velho maquinista
Com seu boné
Lembra do povo alegre
Que vinha cortejar
Maria Fumaça
Não canta mais
Para moças
Flores janelas
E quintais
Na praça vazia
Um grito, um oi
Casas esquecidas
Viúvas nos portais

the way you look at me when you think I'm not looking, tells me
your heart's a sleeping giant worn out by someone you loved before me
I see you're scared, unconvinced by what I've tried to say
that I am yours and that nothing will take me away
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
I know that you know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
the way you always call me with some question, and every time
try to pretend you didn't call me just cos I was on your mind
too soon for you to say out loud but I know
you love me and though we don't say it already shows
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
I know that you know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
I wait for you to open up
but it's not a bore, you're just what I've been looking for
why do you keep your head in the sand?
whoever you loved before me that ran's nothing like me, nothing like me, nothing like me
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
I know that you know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
you already know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
I know that you know but I'll sing it again
I love you babe and nothing will take me away
the way you look at me when you think I'm not looking
the way you call me up just to see what's cooking
the way you look at me when you think I'm not looking
I look at you that way too, you just don't know that I do
I know that you know, you already know

don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
just fall into a dream
they say if you die in a dream,
you die in real life
well I just died in your arms,
lost in your eyes
and I know this must be a dream
cos I feel like I can fly to heaven
they say if you live in a dream,
you're hopelessly lost
well this ain't just any old dream
for our paths have crossed
and I may be hopelessly lost
but somehow I've managed to find heaven
and don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
just fall into a dream
don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
don't worry if we fall in love
we will never touch the ground
just fall into a dream

Mi corazón esta triste y solo
Por ti suspiro cariño por ti solo
Porque no has visto
Soy para ti cuerpo y alma
Mis dÃas pasan con tristeza
Y me pregunto porque me haces esto
En serio te digo
Soy para ti cuerpo y alma
*Es tan difÃcil de creer
No puedo imaginar
Que tú rechaces mi amor
Acaso pretendes
Que pareces al final
Si al menos tuviera un chance más
Mi vida la está haciendo pedazos
Lo sabes soy tuya
Uyyy puedes tomarme
Felizmente me rindo
Soy para ti cuerpo y alma

if I had a penny for every time I caught you
undressing me with your eyes
I'd be a rich one and then I could prove all my senses were real all along
you wanted me too
though now you laugh and call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
before she got to you
if I could remember all the things you
used to say when we were left alone
I'd have a book of sonnets so inspired
all the muses would cringe at your denial
at how you wanted me too
though now you laugh and call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
before she got to you
before she got to you,
I would say that we were something special to behold
but now it's over, all over
before she came barging through,
we were prime to make the kind of love
as scarce as four leaf clover
now, I'm a bit confused
cos what I felt I thought was true...
did she barge in and steal your heart away?
or did you know from the first day
I was just someone to play?
if so, damn that's cold
before she got to you,
I would say that we were something special to behold
but now it's over, all over
before she came barging through,
we were prime to make the kind of love
as scarce as four leaf clover
if I could understand what you have found in her
more than you could have had with me
I'd finally understand a mind
as twisted as yours must be for you to go
just when you wanted me too
though now you laugh and call me a fool
I know you wanted me too
what kind of spell has she put on you?
I know you wanted me too
before she got to you

love me or leave me but please don't deceive me
and say you love me how I am
you love the way I fit some ideal
not the real woman you've yet to understand
see love ain't all heaven, and I am no angel
but I do the best I can
you always wanted something more from my body
and said you needed something more from my loving
but all you got was me and that's all that I can be
I'm sorry if it let you down
now it's no nice excuse but all the magic was used
up on trying to uphold
some kind of tame, flattering persona
that soon enough was getting real old
it takes more than pressure to change rock to diamond
now all you have is sand,
slipping through your fingers
you always wanted something more from my body
and said you needed something more from my loving
but all you got was me and that's all that I can be
I'm sorry if it let you down
but I'm not gonna sit around
and waste my precious divine energy
trying to explain and being ashamed
of things you think are wrong with me
I'm not gonna sit around
and waste my precious divine energy
trying to explain and being ashamed
of what you think is wrong with me
set you up, you say I set you up
like I was different than what I am offering you now
and drug your heart around
did you forget about
all of the love and the acceptance that you promised me too?
you always wanted something more from my body
and said you needed something more from my loving
but all you got was me and that's all that I can be
I'm sorry if it let you down
you always wanted something more from my body
and said you needed something more from my loving
but all you got was me and that's all that I can be
I'm sorry if it let you down
but I'm not gonna sit around
and waste my precious divine energy
trying to explain and being ashamed
of things you think are wrong with me
me, I'm not gonna sit around
and waste my precious divine energy
trying to explain and being ashamed
of what you think is wrong with meit let you down

Wait a little while
We can't rush what belongs
To the heavens above
Like the course of our love without time
We'll never see what's behind
This elusive romance
Could be two who'll prove love is more than
Mere chance
Let's wait a little while
And find out why we're waiting
Amidst those parading
Desir like a torch fire
Amidst those who scramble
For love all a flutter
When true love is something subtler
We'll create if we just wait...
We can't rush a happy ending
That's not in our dstiny's plan
Sweet this seems we can't see
The grand scheme of our lives
Which really are what we'd share
If this romance is true
So take time to live yours
I will too while we
Wait a little while and be sure
We're not fooled
By the things we've been schooled
To take as signs that love's arrived
Like charm wit and beauty
Our youth made us seek them
But in truth we don't need them
We're in love, so let's take our time.

people i almost gave up holding on
watching us give into our fears
i almost believe
almost believe
all the world is helpless sorrow
no hope for a bright tomorrow
but i'm not sure enough
to give it up...no
now as i learn how i must work for change
i nearly cave in from the weight
i almost believe
almost believe
all the sorrows will consume me
'til peace among men i never can see
but i'm not sure enough to give it up
i'll keep faith
like so many souls who won't be drowned
by evil in the world
I HAVE FAITH IN MANKIND
that we can guide our choices towards a healthy world
in time to ease our bind
for only hard work through time
can change men's minds, i know
if we make some small changes now
we'll heal ourselves, some way, some how
i don't expect to ever taste the fruit
my life devoted could bring forth
i almost believe
well i do believe
oh the path to peace is endless
so, choosing to close our eyes makes our fault mendless
of this i'm sure enough
I won't give up
and I'm sure enough
i won't give up

Eu sem você
Não tenho porquê
Porque sem você
Não sei nem chorar
Sou chama sem luz
Jardim sem luar
Luar sem amor
Amor sem se dar
Eu sem você
Sou só desamor
Um barco sem mar
Um campo sem flor
Tristeza que vai
Tristeza que vem
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
Ai, que saudade
Que vontade de ver
Renascer nossa vida
Volta querido
Os meus braços
Precisam dos teus
Teus abraços
Precisam dos meus
Estou tão sozinha
Tenho os olhos cansados
De olhar para o além
Vem ver a vida
Sem você, meu amor
Eu não sou ninguém
