Azul Da Cor Do Mar Lyrics
Tim Maia

Lyrics
Ah!
Se o mundo inteiro
Me pudesse ouvir
Tenho muito prá contar
Dizer que aprendi . . .
E na vida a gente
Tem que entender
Que um nasce prá sofrer
Enquanto o outro ri . . .
Mas quem sofre
Sempre tem que procurar
Pelo menos vir achar
Razão para viver . . .
Ver na vida algum motivo
Prá sonhar
Ter um sonho todo azul
Azul da cor do mar . . .
Mas quem sofre
Sempre tem que procurar
Pelo menos vir achar
Razão para viver . . .
Ver na vida algum motivo
Prá sonhar
Ter um sonho todo azul
Azul da cor do mar . . .
