So you say It's a feeling I'll get over someday So you say So you say I should try Just to let the flame inside me die I should try So you say Against the wind With my face turned to the empty side Of loneliness Midnight black and blueSo you say That the world will keep on turning So you say So you say Tell me why All the stars have lost their mystery now Tell me why Tell me how Where love has been The taste of wine Seems to linger on like distant perfume And all of the memories Carelessly left behind Ghosts and lies They haunt me wherever I goSo you say That the pain of love will pass away So you say So you say Before goodbye I look for the fire behind your eyes But they're cold as ice I hear in your voice The echo of love that's gone by Now I cry I'll love you for all of my lifeSo you say It's a feeling I'll get over someday So you say So you say |

Capim do vale Vara de goiabeira Na beira do rio Paro para me benzer Mae d'agua sai um pouquinho Desse seu leito-ninho Que eu tenho um carinho Par lhe fazer Pinheiros do parana Que bom te-los Como areia no mar Mangas do para Pitombeiras da borborema A ema gemeu No tronco do jurema Cacique perdeu Mas lutou que eu vi Jari nao e deus Mas acham que sim Que fim levou o amor Plantel um pe de fulo Deu capim |

Once there was light Perfectly white Far as the eye could wander Once there was time Morning and night Once there was sky -- over yonderThe day begins Metropolis lies sleeping like a drunken soldier Behind the wheel you come alive And down into its heart you motor Atop the rise - Metropolis Defender of the high and mighty At every turn the homeless wait Reminding you of all that might beHurry now, there is somebody there to meet you Office girls sweet and innocent poised to greet you Through the glass fifty stories below you There's a place I've been meaning to show you Full of sights that are certain to blow you awayBeneath the haze Metropolis awakens with a hiss and rumble You'll hear a knock, don't hesitate They mustn't ever see you stumble You'll never last down on the street Where staying on your toes ain't ballet It's getting by or getting beat From curtain to the grand finaleIn the air there is music and sounds of laughter For the moment it's happily ever after Through the glass fifty stories below you In the shadows where nobody knows you There's a stranger who's dying to show you the wayNow entering Metropolis Creation of a world gone crazy The alleyway - the resting place Still echo from the souls trapped under You lock the doors, step on the gas And push until it goes no faster You close your eyes and leave behind Metropolis lord and master |

Come join the circle and witness the magic Hear the voices Believe and imagine Hear the voicesCome join the circle and feel the unspoken Hear the voices A spirit unbroken Hear the voicesJust a simple storyteller Troubadour on call whenever The gods moved his heart to speech He was something of a hero To the conscience of the people To the children on the beach Son of Africa and legend Music made of pain and pleasure Brought the nation to its feet Every whisper sounds like thunder Everybody stares in wonder When the saints begin to speak He sings and then they speakCome join the circle and witness the magic Hear the voices Believe and imagine Hear the voicesCome join the circle and feel the unspoken Hear the voices A spirit unbroken Hear the voicesHe was sentenced into exile Far away from home but meanwhile Popularity increased Radio reversed his fortune He was welcomed with emotion A voice no one could defeat Now they crank up the Victrola In the corner bars and oh, my, How the ladies start to weep Every word describes their hunger Everybody stares in wonder When the saints begin to speak He sings and then they speak |

Here beneath the moon tonight So pale and fragile Is that shining in the distance I see Real or just imagined? Imagined mirages of aguaSomewhere in these sands that spread before me There lies a silent spring for me Que aguaThe earth without the heavens' rain Becomes powder and gravel Life without a spirit whole In time becomes a thread unraveled Or traveled in the circles of aguaAnd lately there grows a thirst inside me With only hunger to guide me Que aguaAgua ever deep Agua ever wide Agua ever still and silentFlowing into sleep finding what we hide Dreaming what cannot be sightedAgua ever warm Current ever strong Agua ever, ever lastingGathering in storm Pouring out in song Washing over understandingAgua Agua deep Agua so wide Carry me to your shore Carry me aguaAgua Agua deep Agua so wide Carry me to your shore Carry me agua |

Here where we stand there used to be a forest A timber rising endlessly before us We cleared away that God forsaken jungle And in return the Indians adore usWhat was mud now is a highway Reaching wide into a prairie Horses run -- cattle are grazing You would swear it was OklahomaDay by day dark is illuminated God's mistake altered and uncreated Wrong's made right left to the jungle pioneerSee in the field my little son and daughter Not long ago that ground was underwater Now you can see them walking with the cattle Singing them songs before they go to slaughterThere are those who would appose us Crying out, |

Beneath the marbled halls of Pretoria There's the faintest sound rising from the underground Behind the prison walls poets fantasize Voices lost are found captive in the underground The dream is still alive, immune to their commands Bravery abounds steadfast in the underground Until the day arrives, children understand Father's safe and sound living in the undergroundLook to the days ahead Gather your prayers like roses Think of the life that waits after the battle's over Look to the land beyond you Out where the fields are golden There will be gifts untold, yes after the battle's over If I should not return, know that you are my pleasure Shelter yourselves, my treasures, until the battle's overThe dream is still alive, immune to their commands We are pound for pound stronger in the underground The longer we survive the less they can withstand Time will turn around over to the underground0 miles from Soweto under a thorn tree's branches Shanty will be no longer after the battle's over Somewhere a breeze is drifting over a blue-green ocean There will be time for beauty after the battle's over Children, I must be going - cherish your mother's memory Now turn these words to ashes antes que seja tardeThe dream is still alive, immune to their commands Time will turn around over to the underground The longer we survive the less they can withstand Time will turn around over to the undergroundBeneath the marbled halls where the power lies There's the faintest sound rising from the underground Behind the prison walls poets fantasize Voices lost are found captive in the undergroundThe dream is still alive, immune to their commands Bravery abounds steadfast in the underground Until the day arrives, children understand Father's safe and sound living in the underground |
