Alpha Omega

Na manhã que você foi emboraOn the morning you went away
O ar estava úmido e o céu cinzaThe air was humid and the sky was gray

Eu comi amendoim cozido no café da manhã, de Cairo, GeorgiaI had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia

O ar estava molhado, meu rosto mais aindaThe air was wet, my face was wetter
As flores rosas na janela oeste me deixaram melhorThe pink flowers along the western window made me feel better
Liguei o ar-condicionadoI turned the air conditioner on
Encontrei o bilhete em papel de carta perfumado - você já tinha idoFound the note on scented stationary - you were long gone

Eu comi amendoim cozido no café da manhã, de Cairo, GeorgiaI had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia

Tirei a tampa da lata de alumínioI popped the top off of the aluminum can
Deixei a salmoura escorregar pelos meus dedos, caraLet the brine slide down my fingers, man
Estava quente, estava quente na minha peleIt was warm, it was warm on my skin
Mas eu senti o frio se aproximandoBut i felt the cold blast looming on in

Eu comi amendoim cozido no café da manhã, de Cairo, GeorgiaI had boiled peanuts for breakfast from cairo, georgia
