Lyrics of 'Carolina IV' by Angra

Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína
E tudo o que se fez n'água
Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha
E o meu passo nessa esfera

All I see floats with the wind
(Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína)
All the miracles of the water
(E tudo o que se fez n'água)
Are the miracles never seen
Somehow my life now begins
(Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha)
This music that's been played through time
(E o meu passo nessa esfera)
Now starts to reach my feet

Feels like the flood of my needs
(Um caboclo de orixás logo deixa a Terra)
From the harmony of forever
(Vai de encontro à sua sina)
Sound the melodies of the sea
And you will know on the way
(Onde o céu encontra o mar achará seu porto)
I'm coming back to my enemies
(E é assim que isso termina)
I'm turning around, I'll be
Just coming back to my last days
(E é assim que isso termina)
I'm coming back to the sea

So, won't you come with me, me friend?
Thrills like we had before, yeah
Hope never showing up the same
For a lonely man

Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína
E tudo o que se fez n'água
Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha
E o meu passo nessa esfera

Since the day we left the land
We've been anxious on aproach
Captain kept showing his plans
Under sail we go
Deep the oceans blue I stare
The reflections of my soul
We have with us a special guest
And for him we made a toast

Carolina IV took a river to the sky
Seven men on board
Taking part to take their hearts around
All around, around the world, yeah

All I can recall that day
On that very day for sure
All hands up against the haze
As we attempted the return

Carolina IV took the river to the sky
One man less on board
Human dreams have sometimes cost their lives
All their lives dreaming

I've been such a fool (I've been such a fool)
I've been so afraid (I've been so afraid)
From my heart to you I say
I'll be here to stay

Nothing much left from the boat
Many years have been and gone
Still I can't forget the past
And the ones I left at home

Carolina IV took the river to the sky
Windy whistling nights
Made me sail right into the blowin eye
Now I'll die singing

I've been such a fool (I've been such a fool)
I've been so afraid (I've been so afraid)
From my heart to you I say
I'll be here to stay

I've been such a fool (I've been such a fool)
I've been so afraid (I've been so afraid)
From my heart to you I say
I'll be here to stay

Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína
E tudo o que se fez n'água

All I see floats with the wind
(Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha)
(E o meu passo nessa esfera)
Somehow my life now begins
(Um caboclo de orixás logo deixa a Terra)
(Vai de encontro à sua sina)
Feels like the flood of my needs
(Onde o céu encontra o mar achará seu porto)
(E é assim que isso termina)
All I see floats in the, floats with the wind
(Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína)
(E tudo o que se fez n'água)

Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha
E o meu passo nessa esfera
Um caboclo de orixás logo deixa a Terra
Vai de encontro à sua sina
Onde o céu encontra o mar achará seu porto
E é assim que isso termina

Salve, salve, Iemanjá, salve, Janaína
E tudo o que se fez n'água
Joguem flores para o mar, Deus salve a Rainha
E o meu passo nessa esfera
Um caboclo de orixás logo deixa a Terra
Vai de encontro à sua sina
