Fogo de Saudade/além da Razão

Within my being burns a passion
Fire of longing invades the heart
It was without realizing that love arrived
Without even knowing why the light went out
And so, my voice I will not silence
I do wish for a new sun to shine

Those who truly love grow stronger from love
I did not deserve the pain that saddens me
And so, my voice I will not silence
I do wish for a new sun to shine
I just want my place in the wings of this illusion
That made me cry so much

For loving you
I painted
A blue for the sky to admire
Even the sea
I sweetened
And from stones, I made milk spring
From something ordinary
I made a king
And out of nothing, an empire to give you
And singing, I will say
What I believe love is
It's a bridge
Leading far into the horizon
A garden without thorns
A pine that fits well
In any song
Clothing to wear
In any season

It's a dance, childlike peace
That is only achieved
With tenderness
It's being beyond
Simple reason
Just don't lie to your heart
