One Coin (Tostão)
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.
One coin
Hardly is worth anything
Alone
Covered in the shadows
Until
Reflecting the sun shining
More come
Following and joining in...
One man
Trying to find some meaning
Alone
Wishing to share some feeling
Until
Coming to know one true friend
More come
Following and joining they grow
Gathering together we show
Gathering together we know
Gathering together we grow
Gathering together...
One coin
Hardly is worth anything
Alone
Covered in the shadows
Until
Coming to know one true friend
More come
Following and joining they grow
Gathering together we show
Gathering together we know
Gathering together we grow
Gathering together...
