Minha Música

My Music

Music, I was born for music
To see you smile and dream
And if you listen carefully
You have the beating of your heart
In my music

I vaguely remember today
When I was a child
I lived in a beautiful village by the Tejo river
I had a blonde girlfriend
And friends from school
On Good Friday, I would go in the procession
And my father would say, 'Son, when you grow up
You have to be an engineer or a doctor'
'Which doctor?' I would say
'What a bad doctor I would be'
I want to sing on the radio

Chorus:
Music, I was born for music
To see you smile and dream
And if you listen carefully
You have the beating of your heart
In my music

When I entered high school
I started playing
Jazz, Bossa Nova, Blues, and Rock and Roll
Antonio, Marco, and Michael
Were the one thousand one hundred and eleven
The Beatles, Elton John, Bob Dylan, and the Rolling Stones

And my father would say, 'Son
You have to wear a tie'
'You better get some sense and be wise'
With a jacket and Blue Jeans like James Dean
That little bug was already biting inside me

Chorus:
Music, I was born for music
To see you smile and dream
And if you listen carefully
You have the beating of your heart
In my music

Chorus:
Music, I was born for music
To see you smile and dream
And if you listen carefully
You have the beating of your heart
In my music

In my music
My music
My music
