Madrugada

Dawn

Madrugada

ah, when relief arrivesah, quando o alívio chega
just waitpode esperar
morning's on the waymadrugada está por vir
I think I can be honestcreio poder ser sincera
there's no curenão há remédio
no way to lienão se pode mentir

this poetry really came in handyessa poesia veio mesmo a calhar
on this chilly dawnnessa madrugada fria
on this moonless nightnessa noite sem luar
there's no way to see the starsnão há como ver estrelas
and no way to believee nem como acreditar
but there's a blue skymas existe o céu azul
there's love, samba, and the seaexiste o amor, o samba e o mar

dawn has already brokenmadrugada já rompeu
you're gonna leave mevocê vai me abandonar
I feel that forgivenesseu sinto que o perdão
is something you don't deservevocê não mereceu

dawn will break across the skydawn will break across the sky
soon you'll abandon mesoon you'll abandon me
forgiveness was much more thanforgiveness was much more than
you could ask of meyou coulask of me
