Verse 1
If the whole world could hear me
I've got a lot to tell
To say I've learned
Verse 1
And in life we've got to understand
That one is born to suffer
While the other laughs
Verse 1
But whoever suffers always has to look
At least come to find
A reason to live
Verse 1
See in life some reason to dream
Have an all-blue dream
Blue the color of the sea
Verse 1
But whoever suffers always has to look
At least come to find
A reason to live
Verse 1
See in life some reason to dream
Have an all-blue dream
Blue the color of the sea

SONG MEANING

“Azul Da Cor Do Mar” feels like a soulful postcard from Tim Maia’s heart to anyone who has ever felt life’s weight. He admits that the world is uneven: some people are born to suffer, others are born to smile. Yet instead of staying stuck in that unfairness, he urges us to become explorers of hope, hunting for a razão para viver (reason to live) and a motivo pra sonhar (reason to dream).

The song’s bright refrain points to a dream painted azul da cor do marblue, the color of the sea. That color is Tim Maia’s symbol for endless possibility, calm, and freedom. Even when pain seems inevitable, he says we can dive into that vast blue dream, recharge our spirits, and keep believing in better days. It is a groove-filled reminder that resilience and imagination can turn life’s rough currents into a vibrant ocean of hope.
