Read Time:2 Minute, 1 Second

Lyrics by Dinho Ouro Preto, Bebel Gilberto, Bco Dranoff

You know you can feel the breeze with patience of a lifetime
Dance above the trees to the rhythm in your mind
Gently touching your skin inside out
Floating on the seas, it carries me around

You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone

Penso em voc, sinto um gosto de mar
Nos gros de areia, e eu a rolar
Vou rodar o mundo , mas aqui o meu lugar
Eu vou rodar o mundo mas aqui o meu lugar

Translation
Thinking about you, I feel the taste of the sea
In the sand grains, I am rolling
Gonna go around the world, but here is my place
Ill go around the world, but here is my place

You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone

Since the day I left, from the start
I can feel megabytes of memories in my heart

Wish I disappear and wake up in some other place
Where theres no pain or fear, is simple like Hello

You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
You can close your eyes and never be alone
SAMBA OF THE BLESSING
Literal translation by Bco Dranoff
Its better to be happy than sad
Happiness is the best thing there is
It is like a light in the heart
But to make a samba with beauty
Its needed a bit of sadness
If not the samba cant be made

To make a samba is not like telling a joke
And who makes samba like this is worth nothing
The good samba is a kind of prayer
Because samba is the sadness that sways
And sadness is always hopeful
Of one day not being sad any more

Put a little love in the cadence
And youll see that in this world nobody wins
The beauty that a samba have
Because samba was born in Bahia
And if today it is white in its poetry
It is very black in its heart
