Sonhos [English translation]

Everything started lightly

And it grew on and on,

taking over me

And, all of a sudden,

I saw myself surrendered to you

Saw my strengh tied up to your footsteps

Saw that without you there’s no path,

I can’t find myself

Saw a great love screaming inside me

as I have dreamed one day

When my world was more real

And everybody recognized

A very strange change

More purity, more tenderness,

more calm, More joy

in the way I presented myself

When the song became clearer

and more intensely felt

When poetry really made a fuss in my life

You came to tell me about this unexpected passion

For someone else

But there’s no commotion

I just want you to find yourself

To miss someone is good

Better than going on empty

Hope is a gift

That I have inside me

I do have it

There is no despair

You taught me a milion things

I have a dream in my hands

Tomorrow is a new day

Certanly I will be happier
