"Put A Little Love Away"

"Put A Little Love Away"



He asked a question
You had no answer
The music finds you
A sad and lonely dancer
Somehow you lost it
What everybody's looking for
But yesterday is dead and gone
Tomorrow's at your door

Better put a little love away
Everybody needs a penny for a rainy day
Put a little love away
Keep a loving thought in mind
Someone's gotta leave
Somebody's gotta stay behind
Put a little love away

Two people sharing
One tear too many
Look around for miracles
And, no, you don't find any
I've seen it coming
But what am I supposed to do
Just take a closer look around
And simply say to you

Better put a little love away
Everybody needs a penny for a rainy day
Put a little love away
Keep a loving thought in mind
Someone's gotta leave
Somebody's gotta stay behind
Put a little love away

"Puzzle Of Hearts (Oceano)"

"Puzzle Of Hearts (Oceano)"



Believe me, I'll never know how
In this life I ever found you
I don't know why you put up with me
When I go on hurting you so
Why you stay heaven knows

It's true that I would be lost
Without your tender arms to anchor me
When all my schemes have abandoned me
Wandering off empty and cold
Until you have taken hold

Like a puzzle of hearts
Your love makes me whole
Each of us missing
Part of the other's soul
As long as I live
No less will I give

Like a puzzle of hearts
Scattered far and wide
We're on a journey
Starting from different sides
And each day I wake
With each step I take
I see your face
And fall into place

Assim que o dia amanheceu
La no mar-alto da paixao
Dava pra ver o tempo ruir
Cade voce? Que solidao
Esquecera de mim

It's true that I would be lost
Without your tender arms to anchor me
When all my schemes have abandoned me
Wandering off empty and cold
Until you have taken hold

Like a puzzle of hearts
Your love makes me whole
You are the missing part
Of my lonely soul
As long as I live
No less will I give

"Real Life"

"Real Life"



We lived in a world of beautiful lies
Where you're fool enough to think you're wise
Feeling so sure
Love will endure

Like a shining star against the night
We saw love as clear as black and white

We looked to a dream to carry us through
But that's more than dreams can ever do
Promises made
Easily fade
And there's nothing left to do or say
We just close the door and walk away

'Cause in real life
It's never what it seems
In real life
We struggle in between
The hard truth
And the promise of a dream
In real life
Oh, it's never what it seems
In real life
Oh, in real life

Now, I've seen the light and you know the score
Love can't blind us like it did before
Swear we won't make
The same old mistake
But no matter how we try to be
We're just seeing what we want to see

And in real life
It's never what it seems
In real life
We struggle in between
The hard truth
And the promise of a dream
In real life
Oh, it's never what it seems
I real life
Oh, in real life

In real life
It's never what it seems
In real life
We struggle in between
The hard truth
And the promise of a dream
In real life
Oh, it's never what it seems
I real life
Oh, in real life

'Cause in real life
It's never what it seems
In real life
We struggle in between
The hard truth
And the promise of a dream
In real life
Oh, it's never what it seems
I real life
Oh, in real life

Por amor andei
Tanto chao e mar

Se o amor nao e
Bastante pra vencer
Eu ja sei o que vou fazer
Meu Senhor, uma oracao
Vou cantar para ver se vai valer

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

O meu santo defensor
Traga o meu amor!

"Righteous Life"

"Righteous Life"



I rode on your highways
Played cards with some of your gods
Kicked a long stone at sunset
Watched the ways you smile and nod
You smile and nod

It's a righteous life we're leading friends
Heavy dues, pay the fee
But no one else notices
Destiny except the free, except the free

You can tell it in a smile sometimes
Arrogance, haughty, and cruel
Smiling at some stranger
Like a tarot deck card fool

It's a righteous life we're leading friends
Heavy dues, pay the fee
But no one else notices
Destiny except the free, except the free

Stories that they're weaving now
Are part fiction, sometimes ruse
You can tell where the real part ends
And it's time to ask for truth, to ask for truth
To ask for truth

It's a righteous life we're leading friends
Heavy dues, pay the fees
But no one else notices
Destiny except the free, except the free

"Rio De Janeiro"



Rio de Janeiro
Teu perfume, teu tempero
E o azul
Do mar
O teu olhar coral
A agua viva de sal
Espraiada no teu corpo de luz
Esse poder que Deus deu
Quando o Rio se lamenta
Uma onda arrebenta
Sensual
E traz de la
Sereia
Liberta da teia
Das redes pra encantar
E vem num cavalo-marinho
Sobre as aguas reinar
O brilho da festa
De brisa do altar
E Yoruba de Iemanja
De Iemanja
No mar

Rio de Janeiro
O poeta num veleiro
Veio te contar
Que o Carioca ve
A mata Atl'ntica inteira na palma de um coqueiro solar
Esse e o povo que danca nas ruas
E o turista
Que desce na pista
Do lugar
Quer se tornar
Moreno
E primo de Ogum, afilhado de Orixa
Faz jogo de bicho
Na sombra leve de um flamboyant
Em tardes azuis reza no Maracana
A oracao do futebol
E o gol e so sol
O sol

"Roda"

"Roda"



Meu povo, preste atencao
Na roda que eu te fiz
Quero mostrar a quem vem
Aquilo que o povo diz
Posso falar, pois eu sei
Eu tiro os outros por mim
Quando almoco, nao janto
E quando canto e assim

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou comecar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Nao e obrigado a me ouvir
Quem nao quiser escutar

Quem tem dinheiro no mundo
Quanto mais tem, quer ganhar
E a gente que nao tem nada
Fica pior do que esta
Seu moco, tenha vergonha
Acabe a descaracao
Deixe o dinheiro do pobre
E roube outro ladrao

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou prosseguir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Nao e obrigado a escutar
Quem nao quiser me ouvir

Se morre o rico e o pobre
Enterre o rico e eu
Quero ver quem que separa
O po do rico do meu
Se la embaixo ha igualdade
Aqui em cima ha de haver
Quem quer ser mais do que e
Um dia ha de sofrer

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou prosseguir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Nao e obrigado a escutar
Quem nao quiser me ouvir

Seu moco, tenha cuidado
Com sua exploracao
Se nao lhe dou de presente
A sua cova no chao
Quero ver quem vai dizer
Quero ver quem vai mentir
Quero ver quem vai negar
Aquilo que eu disse aqui

Agora vou divertir
Agora vou terminar
Quero ver quem vai sair
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Nao e obrigado a me ouvir
Quem nao quiser escutar

Agora vou terminar
Agora vou discorrer
Quem sabe tudo e diz logo
Fica sem nada a dizer
Quero ver quem vai voltar
Quero ver quem vai fugir
Quero ver quem vai ficar
Quero ver quem vai trair

Por isso eu fecho essa roda
A roda que eu te fiz
A roda que e do povo
Onde se diz o que diz

"Salt Sea"

"Salt Sea"



Wait, wait for me you'll see
That you really want me
We can be free only if I know
That you'll come back and you'll be with me

Watching the wind blow
Tasting the salt sea
We'll ride every wave we can find
Now is the right time
Just for you and me

We'll make the day sing
Like the winds
And we won't have to go far
Now that we have the time
We can find all we want
If we just look
