about

One of the great Afro-Sambas composed by Guitarist/Composer Baden Powell and Poet Vinicius de Moraes. This English lyric was added later in 2002 by Australian Singer Diana Clark.

lyrics

It won't make it better, no way
You can't have control over it.
It won't make it better, no way
You don't have control over it
Your grandmother soon came to learn to honour the lives that have been
Your grandmother wants you to learn to mourn and to keep on living
Your mother she feels just the same when she has a loss or a grief
Your mother feels the same when she has been treated badly

Cry, cry, cry cry no more
Cry, cry cry, cry regret
Cry, cry cry, cry no more
Try, try, try now forget

Take a look around the world - there is so much more to see
You can honour what is gone and be free
Yes, it's your right to be alive, laughing living in each day
There's a chance each road you take

Your grandfather soon came to learn to honour the lives that have been
Your grandfather wants you to learn to mourn and to keep on loving
Your father he feels just the same whenever he makes a mistake
Your father feels the same whenever he carries heartache

Cry, cry, cry cry no more
Cry, cry cry, cry regret
Cry, cry cry, cry no more
Try, try, try now forget

Take a look around the world - there is so much more to do
You can honour what is gone and be true
Yes, it's your right to be alive, laughing breathing in each day
There's a chance each road you take
