Força Estranha

Gal Costa Gal Costa

Strange Force

I saw the boy running, I saw the time
Playing around the path of that boy
I put my feet in the stream
And I think I never took them off
The sun still shines on the road and I never passed by

I saw the woman preparing another person
Time stopped for me to look at that belly
Life is a friend of art
It's the part that the sun taught me
The sun that crosses this road that never passed by

That's why a force leads me to sing
That's why this strange force
That's why I sing, I can't stop
That's why this immense voice

I saw many white hairs on the artist's forehead
Time doesn't stop and yet he never ages
He who knows the game
Of the fire of things that are
It's the sun, it's the road, it's the time, it's the foot and it's the ground

I saw many men fighting, heard their screams
I was at the bottom of every hidden desire
And the most certain thing of all things
Is not worth a path under the sun
And the sun on the road is the sun on the road
It's the sun

That's why a force leads me to sing
That's why this strange force
That's why I sing, I can't stop
That's why this immense voice

That's why a force leads me to sing
That's why this strange force
That's why I sing, I can't stop
That's why this voice, this voice, this immense voice
