Lyrics
Velho Filho
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.
Quantos anos ele tem
Desde que de novo morreu?
Tantas rugas o medo traz
Que pode não reconhecer
Foi veloz em acreditar
E no tempo se apoiou
Hoje curva as costas
Pelo peso do que não fez
Ou ainda ele vem
Pra dizer que não nasceu?
Tantos filhos o erro faz
Que o estrago nem viu nascer
Passos lentos pra se enganar
E no comum tropeçou
Ontem pôs nas costas
O leve fardo do talvez
Talvez
Um velho filho todos têm
Só pode vê-lo nascer
Quem no amanhã não se ater
E viver
