Lyrics
Toda Saudade
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Toda saudade é a presença
Da ausência de alguém
De algum lugar
De algo enfim
Súbito o não
Toma forma de sim
Como se a escuridão
Se pusesse a luzir
Da própria ausência de luz
O clarão se produz
O sol na solidão
Toda saudade é um capuz
Transparente
Que veda
E ao mesmo tempo
Traz a visão
Do que não se pode ver
Porque se deixou pra trás
Mas que se guardou no coração
