Olhos assim

Já passei por muitos lugares
Muitas coisas eu já vivi
Mas confesso
Que de todos esses lugares
De todos os rostos de pessoas e seus olhares
Olhos assim eu nuca vi

Já houve olhares que me deram medo
Já houve olhares que me revelaram segredos
Outros que me afugentaram
Houve outros, ainda, que me convidaram
A realizar meus mais selvagens desejos

 Já houve olhares que controlaram
Já houve olhares que me vigiaram

Existe olhar vago, enfadonho e olhar que seduz
Mas jamais vi um olhar tão sereno, tão calmo
Encher tanto minh’alma de luz

 

If there was a place that I could choose…

If there was a place that I could choose If there was a place that I could never lose A place where I’d be safe and never fall apart I’d certainly chose a place Deep within your heart And I’d like to stay there forever I would make your heart my home and my treasure. I woud struggle and try hard Never to hurt you inside Because your heart would be my shelter A stronghold against rough weather A safe harbor against the storms of life I would be cozy and warm While outside there was a raging storm I would read books in a comfortable warmchair Then you would come from behind and caress my hair That, for me, would be a big surprise Then you would sit on my lap We would kiss and we would smile And we would stay there For all the while We would have a dog and a cat We would sing and we would chat We would have a daughter And we would be amazed When she became a toddler If there was a place that I could choose I’d chose a place deep within your heart Because I’ve never wished To to belong to a place, so hard As I now wish To belong to your heart.
