Carlos Drummond de Andrade
(31 Out. 1902 - 17 Ago. 1987 )
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly
but I know they'd all be yearning to fly
when my, when my, when my soul
takes leave of this world
when I leave this flesh and these bones
oh I swear to you that you wont have to go alone
Hold this heart when I go
sing my song when I go
sing it loud when I go
sing it proud when I go
some people are learning to die and some people are yearning to fly
but i know they'd all be yearning to fly
the first time my heart collided with yours
I know I felt the ocean tickle the Earth's sandy shores
but changes come and we all know that we can't, we can't stop them
but I hold these memories and I will never drop them
and I'll watch over you
I'll watch over you
oh my care will cover you just like the moon can do
...
then I'll wrap my wings around you and give you strength and I wont leave your side
and I'll watch over you
