Breath of Life
I feel my heart divided
For those who are close to me and whom I love so much,
And by whom, far be it from me...
And whom I love very much too.
I live with my heart divided,
For the immense desire to stay, for the immense desire to leave,
Living only in dreams
When together we can once again stay.
My divided heart... my suffering heart.
For the longings of life that follow us like shadows.
For the pain of longing... that comes and goes,
That leaves my eyes wet because this longing I feel is too much.
My divided heart, how long will you stay like this?
I think forever...
Yeah, I know I'll always miss you.
Whom I love so much, and how far away I'll have to stay.
At home. Campinas, February 1994

WITHOUT YOU IN THE PARK

I WISH I COULD LIVE INTENSELY
Breath of Life I wish I could live intensely, The time lost in the past, The lifeless past time, The time lost in life. I wish I could live intensely, Because time has not given me its time, Because I didn't feel the time in time, Simply... because I didn't have time....
