Saudade Solta

I took your longings
Went to plant them in my garden
Because I know that way you continue
Here close to me
And singing the longing I know
Something will grow here
If sadness I sowed
Joy I shall reap
Joy I shall reap

Any pebbles there may be, I shall remove
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing
And any shadows there may be, I shall push away
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing

New days will come
Other happy memories
And the wind that bends us
Will not break our roots
And singing I know that remains
The longing right here
And the hope that gives us life
In me will not have an end
I know you will wait for me

Any pebbles there may be, I shall remove
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing
And any shadows there may be, I shall push away
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing

Any pebbles there may be, I shall remove
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing
And any shadows there may be, I shall push away
And all the weeds around
And whatever comes will remind
What life holds, the loose longing
