Um Abraçaço
Caetano Veloso
A Big Hug
I tied a knot in space,
To grab a piece,
Of the universe we can see.
With our naked eyes,
Our blue lenses,
Our light computers.
This knot was a verse,
But it all turned perverse,
You didn't let yourself stay.
In my tangle,
It ended up on the other side,
On the other side over there, over there.
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey! Today I send a big hug!
A cuddle, a big kiss,
My clownish look,
Your pride so serious...
A big commotion,
For my old weariness,
Of the eternal mystery.
I don't trace my destiny,
I don't draw, I disguise,
Chance is the great lord.
Everything that didn't work out,
And I know can't be fixed,
In silence it cried, cried...
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey! Today I send a big hug...
Hey!
