À Janela
Roberto Carlos
At the Window
From the window, the horizon
I can see the freedom of a road
My thoughts fly free in dreams
Far away from where I am
Sometimes I wonder just how far this road
Can take someone
So many people have regretted it, and I
I’ll think it over, I’ll think it over
How many times have I thought about leaving home
But I backed down
'Cause I know out there I wouldn’t have
What I have right here
My dad gives me advice
My mom keeps talking without knowing
That I have my problems
And sometimes only I can solve them
Things of life
Clash of opinions
Things of life
Things of life
Again I think about leaving
Living the life I want
Walking the world facing
Whatever comes my way
I think about wandering aimlessly
Through the streets, through the night without a thought
About what I’ll say at home
Or any explanations to give
Things of life
Clash of opinions
Things of life
Things of life
I think twice and convince myself
That this is my place
Out there it sometimes rains
And it’s almost certain I’ll want to come back
The night is always cold
When you don’t have a roof with love
And I have that love, but I forget
Sometimes to appreciate it
Things of life
Clash of opinions
Things of life
Things of life
Everything has its time
And I have a whole life to live
And in this life, it’s necessary for us
To seek to understand
Things that annoy
Often happen for love
And that love I sometimes forget
To appreciate it
Things of life
Clash of opinions
Things of life
Things of life
Things of life
Clash of opinions
Things of life
Things of life
