Resposta ao Tempo
Nana Caymmi
Response to Time
Knocking on the front door
It's time
I drink a little bit
To have an argument
But I feel awkward
Silent, he laughs
He mocks how much I cried
Because he knows how to pass
And I don't know
On a blue summer day
I feel the wind
There are leaves in my heart
It's time
I remember a love I lost
He laughs
Say we are equal
If I noticed
Because you don't know how to stay
And I don't know either
And it spins around me
Whispers that erase the paths
That loves end in the dark
Alone
I answer that he imprisons
I release
That he puts the passions to sleep
I wake up
And time gnaws away
Jealous of me
Watch me wanting to learn
How I die of love
To try to revive
Deep down he is an eternal child
Who didn't know how to mature
I can, he won't be able to
Forget me
I answer that he imprisons
I release
That he puts the passions to sleep
I wake up
And time gnaws away
Jealous of me
Watch me wanting to learn
How I die of love
To try to revive
Deep down he is an eternal child
Who didn't know how to mature
I can, and he won't be able to
Forget me
Deep down he is an eternal child
Who didn't know how to mature
I can, he won't be able to
Forget me
