A Roda do Tempo
Elba Ramalho
The Wheel of Time
Says that time is a mystery (let it speak)
That heals any passion (let it speak)
Whoever said that didn't know
This pain that day and night
Hammers my heart
The wheel of time spins (let it spin)
Forward and backward (let it spin)
I've already laid out my cards
If you play a king
I have to play an ace
I grew up
Listening to the melody;
Of the wind punishing the seashore;
I got used to it
In the fall from the cliff
Who knows how to climb a hill
Isn't in a hurry to arrive
Who thinks the sky is close (let them think)
And just needs to reach out (let them think)
Gets used to it:
Lives with their arm outstretched
And their feet off the ground
But life goes on (let it pass)
Like the sky changes color; (let it pass)
Every curve of the path
Takes me slowly
Closer to your love
I grew up
Listening to the melody;
Of the wind punishing the seashore;
I got used to it
In the fall from the cliff
Who knows how to climb a hill
Isn't in a hurry to arrive
