Zeca Baleiro "Era" lyrics

Translation to:en

Era

Era 11 de SetembroNem lembroFoi quando ela me deuUm beijo que era o fim de um sonoCaindoFoi quando aconteceu

Era 4 de JulhoEu juroO chão estremeceuE a poeira que invadia as ruasCegavaO céu embranqueceu

É que para quem esperaO mundo era e erraE ainda está de péA terra em brasaÉ que para quem esperaA vida sempre seráUm incêndio no coraçãoSob o temporal que tudo arrasa

Era dia de Ação de GraçasNa praça todo mundo riuNão entendo bem que graçaQue acham num mundo que ruiu

Era sexta-feira santaDe tanta paixão e frioLonge ouço uma voz que cantaA mata em flor e o céu de Abril

It Was

It was September 11thI no longer rememberIt was when she gave meThe kiss that meant the end of a dreamFallingThat was when it happened

It was the 4th of JulyI swearThe ground shookAnd the dust that got on the streetsBlinded usThe sky got white

That's because to those who're waitingThe world was and makes mistakesAnd it still resistsThe burning EarthThat's because to those who're waitingLife will always beA fire that burns in the heartUnder the devastating storm

It was Thanksgiving dayEveryone at the square laughedI don't understand why did they laughAt a world that had collapsed

It was Good FridayThere was so much passion and cold in itI can hear a singing voice afarThe bushes are blooming and the April sky
