Vida

Life, my lifeVida, minha vida
Look what I didOlha o que é que eu fiz
I left the sweetest sliceDeixei a fatia
Of lifeMais doce da vida
On the table of menNa mesa dos homens
With empty livesDe vida vazia
But, life, thereMas, vida, ali
Who knows, I was happyQuem sabe, eu fui feliz

Life, my lifeVida, minha vida
Look what I didOlha o que é que eu fiz
I poured out my lifeVerti minha vida
In the corners of the sinkNos cantos da pia
In the house of menNa casa dos homens
With wasted livesDe vida vadia
But, life, thereMas, vida, ali
Who knows, I was happyQuem sabe, eu fui feliz

Light, I want light,Luz, quero luz,
I know that beyond the curtainsSei que além das cortinas
There are blue stagesSão palcos azuis
And endless curtainsE infinitas cortinas
With stages behindCom palcos atrás
Rip out, lifeArranca, vida
Swells, veinEstufa, veia
And pulse, pulse, pulse,E pulsa, pulsa, pulsa,
Pulse, pulse morePulsa, pulsa mais
More, I want moreMais, quero mais
Even if all the boatsNem que todos os barcos
Return to the dockRecolham ao cais
May the lighthouses on the coastQue os faróis da costeira
Send me signalsMe lancem sinais
Rip out, lifeArranca, vida
Swells, sailEstufa, vela
Take me, take me farMe leva, leva longe
Far, take me furtherLonge, leva mais

Life, my lifeVida, minha vida
Look what I didOlha o que é que eu fiz
I touched the woundToquei na ferida
In the nerves, in the wiresNos nervos, nos fios
In the eyes of menNos olhos dos homens
With dark eyesDe olhos sombrios
But, life, thereMas, vida, ali
I know I was happyEu sei que fui feliz
