Lado a Lado (Tema de Abertura)

What is on the side of the other side? What is on the other side?
On the other side of the square that separates this side from that side
Is the other side very different? What is there?
Or is it simply the other half of this side?

But, while some build walls
Others build bridges
Some prefer war, others, peace and love
Whichever side it may be

This is not the story of another planet
It's about dreams, fights, loves, and quarrels
It's about living side by side
So close, yet so far apart

The childhood of Romeo and Juliet
