Charlie Brown JR. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Talvez a Metade do Caminho
Eu queria ter voltado no tempo
Nao deixar faltar
O que te faz mais falta
Hoje tenho tudo que eu podia querer
Mas dinheiro nao tudo
Tenho muito a fazer
Muito a fazer

Se voce quer rodar
Eu vou guiar
Vamos fazer o melhor que ha
Se voce quer rodar
Eu vou guiar
Coisa no mundo melhor nao ha
O melhor na vida aprender bem
Mas um dia se sabe
Tanto me lembrar de um sonho
Que tive com voce
Nos meus bracos voce se foi
Nos seus bracos eu quero acordar
E dar coisas que voce nao dez
Porque nao quis me incentivar a dar a volta
Mas a verdade
Que a distncia entre ns
Me fez tanta falta
O dom que Deus te deu
Entrou para a histria do templo

Charlie Brown Jr. Ano 2000, disco 3
Vai com deu meu pai... Vai

Overall Meaning

The song "Talvez a Metade do Caminho" by Charlie Brown JR. describes the regret of not doing enough for someone in the past and the desire to make up for it in the present. The first line of the song translates to "I wish I could go back in time and not let what you need the most be missing." The singer acknowledges that although they have everything they could want now, money isn't everything and there is still much to be done. The song then shifts to a more uplifting tone as the singer offers to guide the person they are singing to and do their best with them. The song then ends on a somber note with the singer acknowledging that they missed out on the opportunity to give to the person when they were together because the person didn't encourage them to do so, but the distance between them now makes the void even more apparent.
