A vida passa e com ela vai embora nossas ilusões
Life goes by and with it our illusions go away
Desaparecem nossas fantasias e nossas paixões
Our fantasies and our passions disappear
Meu pai dizia, 'filho querido, fique por aqui'
My father said, 'dear son, stick around'
'Ainda é cedo pra você partir', mas o meu motivo era bem maior
'It's still early for you to leave', but my reason was much greater
É que eu tinha um sonho antigo a realizar
I had an old dream to fulfill
E por isso mesmo não pude ficar
And that's why I couldn't stay
E sonhar o sonho que a vida me deu
And dream the dream that life gave me
Os meus amigos pediam sempre pra eu não ir embora
My friends always asked me not to leave
Pois não sabiam que eu tinha o mundo do lado de fora
'Cause they didn't know I had the world outside
Quero cantar para mostrar a quem não me acreditava
I want to sing to show those who didn't believe me
Quando sorrindo às vezes falava
When smiling sometimes spoke
Vou lutar bastante mas quero vencer
I'm going to fight hard but I want to win
Quero cantar agora para que meus pais saibam quem eu sou
I want to sing now so my parents know who I am
Ontem um menino, hoje um cantor
Yesterday a boy, today a singer
E a sorte um dia o quis ajudar
And luck one day wanted to help him
A vida passa e com ela vai embora nossas ilusões
Life goes by and with it our illusions go away
Desaparecem nossas fantasias e nossas paixões
Our fantasies and our passions disappear
Meu pai dizia, 'filho querido, fique por aqui'
My father said, 'dear son, stick around'
'Ainda é cedo pra você partir', mas o meu motivo era bem maior
'It's still early for you to leave', but my reason was much greater
É que eu tinha um sonho antigo a realizar
I had an old dream to fulfill
E por isso mesmo não pude ficar
And that's why I couldn't stay
E sonhar o sonho que a vida me deu
And dream the dream that life gave me
A vida passa e com ela vai embora nossas ilusões
Life goes by and with it our illusions go away
Desaparecem nossas fantasias e nossas paixões
Our fantasies and our passions disappear
Meu pai dizia, 'filho querido, fique por aqui'
My father said, 'dear son, stick around'
'Ainda é cedo pra você partir', mas o meu motivo era bem maior
'It's still early for you to leave', but my reason was much greater
