Fagner Lyrics
Há muito tempo que falo
Da natureza e de amor
Das coisas mais simples
Dos homens, de Deus
Canto sempre a esperança
Acredito no azul que envolve o planeta toda manhã
Depende de mim, depende de nós
Escuto um silêncio, ouço uma voz
Que vem de dentro
E enche de luz
Toda nossa tribo
Somos todos índios
Tenho pensado na vida
E no prazer de viver
Nas coisas bonitas
Entre eu e você
Meu canto sempre é de luta
Por um mundo de paz
Cuidar das florestas e dos animais
Da natureza e de amor
Das coisas mais simples
Dos homens, de Deus
Canto sempre a esperança
Acredito no azul que envolve o planeta toda manhã
Depende de mim, depende de nós
Escuto um silêncio, ouço uma voz
Que vem de dentro
E enche de luz
Toda nossa tribo
Somos todos índios
Tenho pensado na vida
E no prazer de viver
Nas coisas bonitas
Entre eu e você
Meu canto sempre é de luta
Por um mundo de paz
Cuidar das florestas e dos animais
