There Was Magic, Then

Havia Magia, Depois

There Was Magic, Then

Quando eu era menina, sonhava em dançarWhen I was a girl, I dreamt of dancing
Sonhava com muitas coisas que o coração poderia guardarI dreamt of many things the heart could hold
Cuidava da minha boneca, amava e zelosamente a tratavaI'd nurse my doll, would love and care for him
Dava vida a elaWould breathe life into him
Pois eu acreditavaFor I believed
Que o mundo era grandioso com muitas coisas preciosasThe world was grand with many precious things
Um ar fino, coisas tão valiosasFine air, such precious things
Era o meu mundoIt was my world
O vento soprava forte com imaginaçõesThe wind would blow wild with imaginings
Eu era tão feliz no meu pequeno mundoI was so happy in my little world

Pois os dias eram longos no verãoFor the days were long in the summertime
Com o gosto mais doce do verãoWith the sweetest taste in the summertime
Havia segredos feitos no verãoThere were secrets made in the summertime
Havia magia...There was magic...

Agora cresci e a vida é boa pra mimNow I have grown and life is kind to me
Tenho algumas tristezas, mas quem não tem?I have some misery but don't we all?
Nosso caminho é tão longo que muitos se perdemOur path is so long that many lose their way
Ansiando a cada dia pelo que deu errado?Longing with everyday for what went wrong?

Pois os dias eram longos no verãoFor the days were long in the summertime
Com o gosto mais doce do verãoWith the sweetest taste in the summertime
Havia segredos feitos no verãoThere were secrets made in the summertime
Havia magia...There was magic...

Sob o céu, crianças perdidas encontram seu caminhoBelow the sky, lost children find their way
Tece pela estrada da vida, entre alegria e dorWeaving through life's highway through joy, through pain
Quando o verão se vai, a escuridão pode te engolirWhen summer has gone darkness can swallow you
E os tempos felizes, outrora novosAnd happy times once new
Desvanecem em cinzaWill fade to grey
Ainda assim, se meus sonhos queimassem todos hojeYet, if my dreams were to all burn today
Eu não fugiria, me chame de tolaI wouldn't run away, call me a fool
Pois eu acreditoFor I believe
E se eu nunca verAnd if I never see
Se me for negado, eu diria que estou bem perdidaIf it's denied to me, quite lost I'd say

Oh, os dias eram longos no verãoOh the days were long in the summertime
Com o gosto mais doce do verãoWith the sweetest taste in the summertime
Havia segredos feitos no verãoThere were secrets made in the summertime
Havia magia...There was magic...
Oh, os dias eram longos no verãoOh the days were long in the summertime
Com o gosto mais doce do verãoWith the sweetest taste in the summertime
Havia segredos feitos no verãoThere were secrets made in the summertime
Havia magia...There was magic
