Carolina IV

(Bittencourt, Loureiro, Matos, Mariutti, Confessori)

All I see floats with the wind

All the miracles of the water

Are the miracles never seen

Somehow my life now begins

This music that's been played through time

Now starts to reach my feet

Feels like the flood of my needs

>From the harmony of forever

Sound the melodies of the sea

And you will know on the way

I'm coming back to my enemies

I'm turning around I'll be

Just coming back to my last days

I'm coming back to the sea!

So... why won't you come with me, my friend?

Thrills... like we had before

Hope... never showing up the same

For a lonely man

Since the day we left the land

We've been anxious on aproach

Captain kept showing his plans:

"Under sail we go!"

Deep the ocean's blue I stare

The reflections of my soul

We have with us a special guest

And for him we made a toast

Carolina IV took a river to the sky

Seven men on board taking part

To take their hearts around

All around, around the world!

All I can recall that day

On that very day for sure

All hands up against the haze

As we attempted the return

Carolina IV took the river to the sky

One man less on board - human dreams

Have sometimes cost their lives,

All their lives dreaming

I've been such a fool, I've been so afraid

>From my heart to you I say: I'll be here to stay!

Nothing much left from the boat

Many years have been and gone

Still I can't forget the past

And the ones I left at home

Carolina IV took the river to the sky

Windy whistling nights

Made me sail right into the wind's eye

Now I'll die singing:
