GESTOS
(Roberto Mendes/ Herculano Neto)
E deixe a valsa, e deixe o samba,
E deixe aquela canção antiga que não me cansa,
Ouvindo-a posso sentir comigo seus vestígios,
Os seus domínios, os seus encantos.
E deixe o barco, e deixe a ilha,
E deixe uma lembrança bonita que não ansia,
Lembrando-a posso preencher com gestos meus vícios,
Os meus princípios, meus acalantos.
Não deixe a mágoa,
Não deixe a ira,
Não deixe a volta,
Não deixe a ida
Que eu deixo a vida seguir seu destino.
E deixe o sonho,
E deixe o instante,
Deixe o encontro,
Deixe o constante,
Que eu deixo a vida moldar o meu destino.
