Pode o Céu Ser Tão Longe
Pedro Abrunhosa
Can the Sky Be So Far Away
I wore the light of your name
And called you through the night,
You entered my sleep
Like the moonlight enters the fountain.
You bring stories and feats
You say you have so much to give me,
You leave shadows, uncertainties,
And you leave without ever taking me.
And suddenly
A lonely sea,
No one on the shore
No one on the way,
So cold.
And your kiss
Kills the distance,
No one so close
Can do what the kiss achieves,
And my body cries
When yours leaves,
Because your world
Is so far away,
So far away,
Can the sky be so far away.
So far away,
So far away,
If your voice lives in me.
There's a desert that remains,
I'm a captain without a boat,
And when you come through the mist
Stars light up in the room.
And you say:
'I bring the light of the sirens,
I bring the song of the storm'.
And like the wind in the sand
You lie in me as if half.
And suddenly
A lonely sea,
No one on the shore
No one on the way,
So cold.
And your kiss
Kills the distance,
No one so close
Can do what the kiss achieves,
And my body cries
When yours leaves,
Because your world
Is so far away,
So far away,
Can the sky be so far away.
So far away,
So far away,
If your voice lives in me.
