Verdade Chinesa
Diogo Nogueira
Chinese Truth
That was all I wanted from life
A beer, a daring illusion
That would tell me a Chinese truth
With an intention of a sweet kiss on the mouth
The afternoon falls, night brings up the magic
Who knows, maybe we'll see each other another day
Who knows, maybe the dream will remain in the conversation
Who knows, maybe even life will fulfill this promise
There are many things we do
Following the path that the world has drawn
Following the rules that someone taught
Following the recipe of normal life
But what is life after all
Is it doing what the master commanded
Is it eating the bread that the devil kneaded
Losing the best of life
Sit down, make yourself comfortable
You're at home, have a drink
Give it time, the sadness will pass
Leave it, there's plenty of time for tomorrow
What matters is the feeling
And the love we have in our hearts
