Num Dia Azul
Brisa soprando
No Mar Azul
Vou navegando
Na praia descalço
Eu ando só
No mar azul
Perco o meu olhar
Penso na paz
Que o verão me dá
Prá você
Penso, sonho, canto,
Prá você
Para se materializar
Aqui
Nesta praia deserta
Junto a mim
Num dia azul
Perco o meu olhar
Penso na paz
Que o verão me dá

Dona Flor
04:21
|

Pelos confins da aurora
Mora uma bela senhora
Que se chama, Dona Flor
Dona Flor é tão bacana
E de rosas ela emana
Um suave, e leve odor
Sua casa é um palácio
Sempre aberto aos que chegam
À procura do amor
E os bosques são de um verde
Que quem não vê, não acredita
As árvores todas copadas
São com seus frutos benditas
Pelos confins da aurora
Mora a bela senhora
Que se chama, Dona Flor
Dona Flor é tão querida
E de lírios é vestida
Sorrindo para esta vida
Dona Flor adora a paz
E nas guerras se disfaz
Em fumaça amarela
Vai levar a toda gente
Uma mensagem singela
Pedindo para acabar
Com esta guerra tão má
E quando a paz volta
Dona Flor volta com ela
E de lírios broncos se veste
E vive a vida dela

Strong Black Coffee
01:35
|

Strong black coffee, dark and sweet
This aroma just can’t be beat
Fresh beans tempt me in the sack
There’s no way I can hold myself back
Sippin’ this nectar teases me so
It hisses through my pores, makes my blood flow
Wakes my senses, opens my eyes
Lingers on my lips, makes me sigh.
Mm-Mm-sweet as can be
Sweeter than the kiss of the honey bee
Darker than night, bitter with a bight
Hot and sweet and out of sight
Grind, grind, that coffee down
To black golden powder, pass it around
Fill your nostrils with sweet aroma
Oh no! Think I’m in a coffee coma!
Put a little sugar, put a little cream
Add some cinnamon, add some steam
A twist of lemon gives a tropical zing
Thick liqueur- sure to make you sing
Café au lait, espresso, cappuccino
Enough to make your synapse go bingo!
Put a little sugar, put a little cream
It’s so good gotta let out a scream!
When you’re feelin’ kind of blue
Don’t you fret shoo-bee-doo-bee-doo
Strong black coffee will make you high
Ripple your skin, make your brain fry
Bug your eyes out 52 inches
Contort your body, make your toes winches
Send you to Mars, spark some stars
In excess, cause psychedelic horrors!
Strong black coffee, night or day
In any old cup or on a silver tray
Arabica, Arabica, Canephora
Sayin’ these words is total euphoria
Bright red beans turn dark and brown
You know any day I'll worship your ground
Strong black coffee, bitter-sweet
In my cup of dreams, you’re the ultimate treat!

Céu azul
Reflexo do mar no olhar
Rumo ao sul
Aves migrantes no ar
Nossas mãos
Carentes a se tocar
Uma paixão
Areia ardente a queimar
Vento agita a sombra das palmeiras
E sopra um desejo em mim
A chance é passageira
A tarde logo chega ao fim
A montanha no horizonte
Ação do tempo em forma de pão
Venha! Doce fatia de ilusão
Meu lábio toca sua fronte
Sabor de loção e sal
Lua surge atrás da ponte
Imagem de cartão postal
Sol morrendo entre dois montes
Cores explodem um alto astral
Me abraça, ameaça, um temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Vento agita a sombra das palmeiras
E varre um desejo em mim
A aventura é passageira
O ensejo logo chega ao fim
Ecoando no horizonte
Batuque abre o festival
Me abraça, se joga, é carnaval
Me beija, se afoga, neste temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Temporal
Céu azul
Reflexo do olhar no mar
Rumo ao sul
Aeronaves riscam o ar
Areia ardent a lembrar
Repiques a misturar
Temperos no paladar
Seu cheiro ainda no ar

Watching the waves and the tide
Is there something in the moon or the stars that decide
How our love will unfold
Is there something in the moon and the stars that seem to know?
Roaming the skies with my eyes
Is there an answer in the wind or the clouds passing by
Is our love as true
As this sky is blue
Is it only the moon and the stars that cause us to choose?
Maybe it's heavenly scheme
As I close my eyes and can only see
The moments that we love with the strength from the stars high above
Or is our love in our hands
To change what destiny intends
Or shape the course of its plans?
Watching the waves and the tide
Is there something in the moon or the stars that decide?
How our love will unfold
Is there something in the moon and the stars that seem to know?
Is our love as true
As this sky is blue?
Is the answer high above or here below
Would it ever reveal ever show?
Only the moon and the stars that seem to know
Only the moon and the stars that seem to know
Only the moon and the stars that seem to know

Bossa Nova Day

Bossa nova summer cruise
Bossa nova groove
A dream on a summer day appears
Finally as your love draws sweet and near
Driving along I feel a song on this Bossa nova day
Telling my heart love is here to stay
Feels so right, my head is light, my car seems to glide
Like a melody that takes me for a ride
The rhythm swings, my spirit sings
My heart soars high above
Somehow I know this moment’s about love.
For now, all my cares are gone
All I want to sing is this Bossa nova song
About your smile, about your laugh and all the above
About a dream come true about love.
Bossa nova summer cruise
Bossa nova groove
Riding the streets in my open car
On this feeling that drives and thrills my heart
For love and Bossa nova are in the air
Just the music setting for this love affair
Love and this Bossa nova mood
Play the rhythm of my heart, plays a tune
You are the melody, the sun the stars the moon,
Oh what day, what a love, what a groove
A dream on a summer day appears
Finally as your love draws sweet and near
Driving along I feel a song on this Bossa nova day
Telling my heart love is here to stay
Feels so right, my head is light, my car seems to glide
Like a melody that takes me for a ride
The rhythm swings, my spirit sings
My heart soars high above
Somehow I know this moment’s about love.
For now, all my cares are gone
All I want to sing is this Bossa nova song
About your smile, about your laugh and all the above
About a dream come true
About love
Love and Bossa nova are in the air
Just the music setting for this love affair
Love and this Bossa nova mood
Play the rhythm of my heart, play a tune
You are the melody, the sun the stars the moon,
Oh what day, what a love, what a groove

Ode To A Falling Leaf
03:41
|
|||
Fall, Fall
Fall, fall, dance in the air
The last chance you get to be up there
In the sun
In your glory
As you fall, fall
Fall with grace because after all
Time and space you have known
But now with no intent
Leave your print
On the walkway fresh cement
Fall
Your life has been such a rise and fall
In early Spring your were round and small
Late in Summer
You stood up on the branch slender and tall
But all that goes up
Must some day come down
Through weather changes
You withstood it all
Wind and rain caressed and beat you
Now a breeze rushes to meet you
As you swirl round and around
Delaying your inevitable course
To the ground
Fall, fall
Fall, dream in the air
Remember the days while you were up there
On life's stage
That was glory!
As you fall, turn
The last page 'cause
In all -You've learned
Fly to freedom
As you've always
Yearned
Round and around
You will spin and
Green to brown
You will change
No longer bound
You will fall and
Return to the ground
Fall and return to the ground
Fall

The Guitarist
03:45
|
|||
As twilight waits behind the sky
The sun withdraws its rays now shy
And in a corner alone and dark
He wraps his passion in his arms
And strums a haunting melody
Cradling wood his soul sets free
The notes begin to weave a story
From loss to love to painted glory
We laugh, we cry, we sing inside
The stories he tells are yours and mine
The questions in his searching soul
Pull at the strings, the night unfolds
He moves hearts in a crowded room
Of floating smoke, sweat and perfume
He sings his life from his guitar
It’s all he has, he’s come this far
The music fills what could have been
A silent room a place within
Notes strike chords in heart and mind
The spaces they fill are yours and mine
He packs his tired guitar away
Closes the latches it’s almost day
He shuts the door and leaves the room
As dust settles in rays of the moon.
And leaves behind an emptiness
A silence so loud it screams nothingness
And all that was has come undone
Notes and night erased by sun
We laugh we cry we sing inside
The stories he tells are yours and mine
We laugh we cry we sing inside
The stories he tells are yours and mine
The stories he tells are yours and mine
