“Sol da Esperança” (Sun of Hope)

Our hearts beat together, in the quiet of the night.

Every word you speak, a song to my soul,
Your presence, a melody, makes me whole.
In your eyes, I see the rising sun,
The dawn of a love, just begun.
(Verse 3)

Your heart syncs with mine, like a perfect line.
The world around us fades away,
Only you and I, in the dance we play.

Underneath the stars, our fears start to fade.
This moment, endless, here we stand,
The sun of hope, within our hands.

Sol da Esperança, you are the light,
Guiding me through the dark of night.
In your arms, the world feels right,
Sun of hope, shining so bright.

Oh, the music swirls, and I can hear,
A future calling, drawing us near.
With every beat, we write our song,
A love so pure, where we belong.
(Chorus Reprise)
Sol da Esperança, you are the light,
Guiding me through the dark of night.
In your arms, the world feels right,
Sun of hope, shining so bright.

With you, love, I feel no pain.
In the quiet glow, we’ll always be,
Under the sun of hope, you and me.

Between us, the distance shows.
What was once so bright, now turns gray,
We’re drifting farther every day.
(Verse 2)
Words left unsaid, we both retreat,
The rhythm of love no longer sweet.
Misunderstandings, too much to bear,
A love we thought could always repair.
(Verse 3)
The melody of us, now out of tune,
Echoes of joy are gone too soon.
I search your eyes, but they’re cold and far,
What happened to the love that left a scar?
(Verse 4)
In this quiet, I feel the sting,
The truth of us, unraveling.
The dreams we shared, now out of sight,
Cicatrizes do Amor, fading light.
(Chorus)
Cicatrizes do Amor, scars of our fight,
A love once glowing, now lost to the night.
The wounds we’ve made, too deep to mend,
This is where we reach the end.
(Bridge)
Can we hold on, or let it go?
The pain of love, the ebb, the flow.
What once was golden, now is cold,
In the silence, our hearts grow old.
(Chorus Reprise)
Cicatrizes do Amor, scars of our fight,
A love once glowing, now lost to the night.
The wounds we’ve made, too deep to mend,
This is where we reach the end.
(Outro)
Underneath the weight of regret,
I wonder if we could forget.
Cicatrizes do Amor, we’ve paid the price,
A love that couldn’t survive the ice.

The air is still, a quiet song,
A love once burning, now feels wrong.
I trace your name in fading light,
Whispers of you, lost to the night.

You left without a word to say,
Only shadows where we used to play.
In the silence, I feel the sting,
A broken heart, still learning to sing.

The notes we played are soft and slow,
A melody of letting go.
Love, like a flame, it burned too bright,
Leaving me here in the silent night.

A quiet strength, a silent choice.
The music lingers, soft, so true,
In every note, I carry you.
(Chorus)
Despedida Silenciosa, farewell so kind,
The scars of love now intertwined.
In the silence, I will find,
A piece of you, in heart and mind.
(Bridge)
Though you’re gone, you’ve left your trace,
In the rhythm, in the space.
I’ll heal the wounds, though they remain,
Love’s quiet loss, its bittersweet pain.
(Chorus Reprise)
Despedida Silenciosa, farewell so kind,
The scars of love now intertwined.
In the silence, I will find,
A piece of you, in heart and mind.

So here I stand, alone but free,
A love that’s gone, yet still with me.

In the echoes of love, I’ll always be.
