Brazil
Sinatra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
We stood beneath an amber moon
And softly murmured "Someday soon"
We kissed and clung together

Then, tomorrow was another day
The morning found me miles away
With still a million things to say
Now, when twilight dims the sky above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Return I will to old Brazil

Then, tomorrow was another day
The morning found me miles away
With still a million things to say
Now, when twilight dims the sky above
Recalling thrills of our love
There's one thing that I'm certain of
Return I will to old Brazil
That old Brazil




Man, it's old in Brazil
Brazil, Brazil

Line by Line Meaning

Brazil, where hearts were entertaining June
Brazil, a romantic place where hearts were happy and content during the month of June


We stood beneath an amber moon
We stood under a glowing, amber-colored moon


And softly murmured 'Someday soon'
We whispered to each other our hopes and dreams of being together one day


We kissed and clung together
We embraced and held onto each other tightly while we kissed


Then, tomorrow was another day
The next day came and reminded us that we couldn't stay in that moment forever


The morning found me miles away
I woke up the next morning far away from where we shared our moment


With still a million things to say
Despite the distance and time, there were still so many things left unsaid


Now, when twilight dims the sky above
Now, when the sky becomes darker during the evening


Recalling thrills of our love
Remembering the excitement and happiness we experienced when we were in love


There's one thing I'm certain of
There's one thing that I know for sure


Return I will to old Brazil
I will return to the place where we fell in love, old Brazil


That old Brazil
The old, familiar Brazil that holds so many memories for us


Man, it's old in Brazil
Brazil has been around for a long time and has history and tradition


Brazil, Brazil
Repeating the name of the place that holds so much meaning for the singer

Tempo que o Brasil tinha crédito no mundo até Frank Sinatra cantava nossos clássicos

Mr. Sylky

Canal do Gêgê, Bob crosby também compôs algumas canções com seu grupo "bobcats" sobre o samba brasileiro, isso em 1939, o disco em questão do Frank Sinatra é dos anos 60. Durante boa parte do século 20 o Brasil foi visto como prospera futura potência mundial, essa visão foi retratada na revista veja em seu anuário de 1993 como "o futuro que nunca veio".

Natan Alves

@Mr. Sylky exatamente vi o Marco Antônio Villa falando algo parecido que você falou.

BRAZILIAN NEWS

Livre Pensador O Festival Internacional da Canção, realizado no Rio de Janeiro, foi antes ou depois do regime militar? Só a nata da música brasileira se apresentou por lá. O Brasil ainda é muito respeitado musicalmente, sim. O problema é a falta de conhecimento da sua parte. Há muitos cantores brasileiros mais conhecidos lá fora do que aqui no Brasil ainda nos dias atuais. Caso exija, mencionarei nomes.
