lyrics

CORONA BOREALIS
Music by Paulo Melo and Lyrics by Paulo Schmidt

[Teseu]
I risked my life to free my land
From the oppression of an insane beast
And my reward cannot be
To stay with someone I don't want to

[Ariadne]
I trusted my life and feelings to you
Now you are gone and left me in this world
Far away from home and alone
Now I need to be very strong
Or agony will kill my hope

[Afrodite]
I saw the sadness deep in your heart
And will give you a chance of restart
Not a mere mortal in your life
But an immortal love by your side
The happiness will return
And the flame of life will burn

[Baco]
I'm back from my insanity
My punishment is over
Now I feel that I will be
By your side until the end of times

[Ariadne]
I will trust my life and feelings to you
You and I will become one
Our lives will be full of love
I’m a human and you’re a god
But my feelings have to be true

[Baco]
Dear, a princess deserves a crown
Our love is making me stronger
And my life is now complete
You brougth me back to my sanity
This jewel increase your beauty
Showing my love forever and ever

Now my crown will shine
Every single night
To everyone
Who look up to the sky

Now that you are gone
You will last long
The crown represents your soul
A constellation will be born
Corona Borealis

Now my crown will shine
Every single night
To everyone
Who look up to the sky
