Olhos claros
João Paulo e Daniel
Clear Eyes
It's been over twenty years
Since I was arrested and I'm paying
For a crime I committed
Green eyes with tenderness
Drove me crazy
And that's why I'm here
Someone out there is living
Counting minutes and hours
To see me free
I don't know why
That someone doesn't want to see me suffer anymore
And truly likes me
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
Sunday at the same time
A man with clear eyes
Comes to visit me
Wearing a tie and a groomed beard
Carrying hope in his perfect face
In his eyes
As if he were a friend
He stays here with me
And it feels good to see him stay
Looking at me for an hour
With teary eyes
He says he will set me free
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
One day at the same time
The man with clear eyes
Appeared again
He said: I came to get you
You will come with me
I am your lawyer
My mother told me
That one day you killed
Just because you loved too much
I am that child
Your son, your hope
And I came to set you free, my father
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
Today I am free
But I confess, in truth
I still feel imprisoned
In memories of the past
I am still chained
And imprisoned by fear
The man with clear eyes
Who, with rare thoughts
Took me out of this prison
Had a sparkle in his eyes
This man is the son
I prayed for
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
God heard my prayers
And answered me
With grace and wisdom
The child grew up
