about

“Essa bossa é uma melodia nova. Robertinho sugeriu a letra em inglês, porque lembra algo americano. Como Marcelo morou na Inglaterra, acabou convocado para fazer a letra, que trata da memória afetiva.”

lyrics

When you are long gone my eyes will grab your sight
No foot steps remain from your fast floating feet
It’s your rushing breath towards eternity
What you leave behind as my miscalled old love
Carrying all free thoughts my captured mind will dream
‘bout the all set roads you walk alone and brave
Wish I could dare… flying with no fear
Taking in my hands your not forgetting scent
Catch your breath
I stand for my belief
That time somehow will stop
Until the day you see
We have the same lone souls
When you are long gone my eyes will grab your sight
No foot steps remain from your fast floating feet
It’s your rushing breath towards eternity
What you leave behind as my miscalled old love
Wait some more
No reason not to say
‘cause time improves one’s will
To live intense the days
That some would rather pass
When you are long gone…
