Milton Nascimento
Saídas e bandeiras (Exits and Flags)
What would you say about this thing that doesn't fit anymore
What would you do to come out of this mess
What was dream turns into dirt
Who is going to be the first to answer me
Get out of this city, live life where life is
Climb new mountains, search for diamonds
And at the end of the road and the dust
A river with its fruits to feed me
What would you say about this thing that doesn't fit anymore
What would you do to come out of this mess
What was dirt turns into stone
Who will be the second to answer me
Drink my beer in an island with my woman
Take off all clothes and wait for the sunrise
Breathe the purest forms
To the winds and the waters I want to surrender
What would you say about this thing that doesn't fit anymore
What would you do to come out of this mess
What was stone turns into body
Who is going to be the third to answer me
Walk through avenues facing what that doesn't fit anymore
Join all energies to overcome this mess
What was stone turns into man
And a man is more solid than this mess
