Lyrics of The Archaic Lonely Star Blues - Gal Costa

The Archaic Lonely Star Blues (original)

Tell me, tell me
Oh please tell me
Who among friends and even strangers
Who could say that you might?
I still remember the scene and the night
The promise one must keep, to keep
Them alive
Tell me, oh, tell me
Eu sei
Não me diga
Esquecer as promessas e mantê-las vivas
A poesia é uma mina
Quando me diz: «Até logo»
Eu olho e me calo
Eu nunca sei quem está ao meu lado
Você sabe, continuo o mesmo
Eu ainda preciso me olhar no espelho
Amanhã ou depois
Você sabe onde me encontrar
Eu vou ficar aqui mesmo
Brincando, dançando, chorando, gritando, morrendo
Eu sei
Não me diga a poesia
Tell me
Oh, oh please tell me
Who among friends and even strangers
Who could say that you might?
I still remember the scene and the night
The promise one must keep, to keep
Oh, them alive
Yes, tell me, oh, tell me, oh, tell me, baby, tell me.
.
Eu sei

(translation)

tell me, tell me
oh please tell me
Who among friends and even strangers
Who could say that you might?
I still remember the scene and the night
The promise one must keep, to keep
Them alive
Tell me, oh, tell me
I know
Do not tell me
Forget the promises and keep them alive
Poetry is a mine
When you say to me: «See you later»
I look and shut up
I never know who is by my side
You know, I'm still the same
I still need to look in the mirror
Tomorrow or after
Do you know where to find me
I will stay right here
Playing, dancing, crying, screaming, dying
I know
Don't tell me the poetry
Tell me
Oh, oh please tell me
Who among friends and even strangers
Who could say that you might?
I still remember the scene and the night
The promise one must keep, to keep
Oh, them alive
Yes, tell me, oh, tell me, oh, tell me, baby, tell me.

I know
