Cais
Gilberto Nascimento
CAIS
De: Gilberto Nascimento
Cem anos de solidão
Esperando por você
Por você que foi pra nunca mais
E até hoje estou no cais a esperar
Cem anos de solidão
Só pra ouvir você dizer
Que não me amava mais
E mesmo assim fiquei no cais a esperar
Desprezou meu zelo
Todo o meu desvelo
Me deixou sozinho
Meu amor tristonho
Entre o sonho e o vinho
Seu medo de amar nos fez distantes
Fuga pra um lugar tão comum
Coração vazio
Pássaro sem asas
Não vai a lugar nenhum
