Veleiro
Edu Lobo & Maria Bethânia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tá na hora e no tempo
Vamos lá que esse vento
Traz recado de partir
Beira de praia
Não faz mal que se veje
Se o caminho da gente
Vai pro mar
Eu vou
Tanta praia deixando
Sem saber até quando eu vou
Quando eu vou
Quando eu vou voltar
Ê, ô!
Vou pra terra distante
Não tem mar que me espante
Não tem, não
Anda
Vem comigo que é tempo
Vem depressa que eu tenho
Braço forte
E o rumo certo
Ah! Que o dia está perto
Que é preciso ir embora
Ah! Vem comigo
Nesse veleiro
Ê, ô!
Tá na hora e no tempo
Vamos embora no vento
