O MORRO NÃO TEM VEZ by Antonio Carlos Jobim, new words by Joel Sattler

 

Tomorrow never fades

Today may not be what you want

when yesterday goes dark

There will always be a rising sun with the coming of the dawn

 

When all hope goes astray

Recall the future’s here to stay

Your luck is bound to change 

and just tell yourself that the next is sure to become a better day

 

No matter what you say

And no matter what you got

Nothing can last forever

Can be what it is not

 

It’s not hard to remember

All the things you forgot

Who is who when is when or

how is how what is what

 

Tomorrow’s a new face

And so no matter how it goes

You still are in the race  

someone told me once to remember that and tomorrow never knows 

 

Tomorrow never fades

You know all things must pass away

Get on your knees and pray

And you’ll realize that God has meant you to live another day 

 

When you have to surrender

captured right on the spot

You still are a contender

give it another shot

 

So when you make the cut

And find’ly over the top and

when you find'ly wake up then

Just tell God: “THANKS A LOT!”

Original lyrics in Portuguese by Vinicius de Moraes

 

O morro não tem vez e o que ele fez já foi demais.
Mas olhem bem vocês quando derem vez ao morro
toda a cidade vai cantar.

O morro não tem vez e o que ele fez já foi demais.
Mas olhem bem vocês quando derem vez ao morro
toda a cidade vai cantar.

Morro pede passagem
morro quer se mostrar
abram alas pro morro
tamborim vai falar:

É um, é dois, é três, é cem, é mil
a batucar
O morro não tem vez, mas se derem vez ao morro
toda a cidade vai cantar.

If we aren't careful, tomorrow will mirror yesterday, the one we wish to forget.
