Sinuca de Bico

You stayed
When the rope broke
When the spring water dried up
When the bomb exploded, you saw
Even then you didn't back down
You bet on my cue in a tough spot
And the shots I missed
You stayed
Then I realized I could count on you
You made an effort
To straighten out our lives
When everyone left, you said I'll stay
And I, who didn't believe, broke
I hit rock bottom in flesh, in bone
But I didn't realize
It took falling again
To admit that I was wrong
But who doesn't make mistakes
Let them cast the first stone
Who has never regretted
Who has never thought victory was certain
And then lost
Who has never been on the verge of selling their soul
But time passes and with time
We calm down

I just wanted to thank and wish happiness
Peace on earth to men of good will
