Vila Beto Ve Lyrics
I was awakened by a memory A trace of other years A figure calling to my life of ease The face of poverty Ten thousand miles stand in a way But it draws me to this day
Chorus I hear their voices deep inside of me Vila Beto Ve I tried to carve a new identity But I could never forget It's got a way of staying in your blood As though you never left Don't forget us when you go away Vila Beto Ve, Vila Beto Ve
I find myself complaining now and then About such little things Always looking for a better hand Than what's been given me But there are those who have much less than me Yet they face the world with dignity Thanking God with joyfull eyes Celebrating every moment of life
Repeat Chorus
It is said the last shall be first What we think is blessing can be a curse It is said the door is a needle's eye And the pure in heart will see God
I hear their voices deep inside of me Vila Beto Ve It's not a matter of my charity I can't afford to forget, can't afford to forget It's got a way of staying in my blood As though I never left I won't forget You when I go away Vila Beto Ve, Vila Beto Ve
