Saudade
Tudo acontece na vida
Tudo acontece a todos nós
Sempre uma dor, um ai de amor
E, de um infeliz, se ouve a voz
Sinto saudades, tristezas
Bem dentro de mim
Coisas passadas, já mortas
Que tiveram fim
Tenho meus olhos parados
Perdidos, distantes
Como se a vida lhe fora
O que era antes
Cartas, palavras, notícias
Não vêem sequer
E a certeza me diz
Que ela era o meu bem
O que dói profundamente
É saber que felizmente
A vida é aquilo que a gente não quer
