Mar De Copas
Samba
Ah, song of the sea
dressed in gray on a salty day
the mist and water at dawn
carry my eyes as I pass by
I am the salt of the morning
during the night, rain will fall in my soul.
Ah, I can see you
you are here even when you're not
I can be the king of the world
of the stars and their cloak
and yet
you are not as much as yesterday.
Without you, I can be volatile
can disappear
my promise is to try
that you are not as much
you are not as much as yesterday.
If I'm not going to love you wrong
running like an animal
I will have you and without hesitation
that's what you'll do.
If I want to see you next to me
I just have to offer
that I won't love you as much
as yesterday.
Ah, I could say
if I felt like saying
the hunger in you will make me sing
a song that holds you
and keeps you prisoner
by my side.
Without you, I can't live anymore
without you, no one remains in me
I could tell you, however
that you are not as much
I live dead next to you.
