Um Gosto de Sol
Milton Nascimento
A Taste of Sun
Someone I saw passing by
In a foreign city
Remembered the dreams I had
And forgot on the table
Like a pear is forgotten
Sleeping in a fruit bowl
As the river falls asleep
Dreaming in the pear's flesh
The sun forgets in the shade
Sleeping in a chair
Someone smiled passing by
In a foreign city
Remembered the laughter I had
And forgot between my teeth
Like a pear is forgotten
Dreaming in a fruit bowl
