Lyrics

Portuguese intro...

An open door you welcome me today, my friend.
The moments go by
On melodies we play
And we laugh at ourselves

Inspiration flows
Like water through our hands,
We play out all our rhapsodies in blue
Sun rides high and bright
Then fades to sand

Your smile a trace of sad
No time to come undone you say
This place is where I keep
my soul alive
But something in my heart cannot survive
Still we take a chance and try.

Your smile a trace of sad
No time to come undone you say.
This place is where I keep my soul alive
But something in my heart
Just can't survive
Still we take a chance, we try...
Too bad we always say
Goodbye...
