Palhaço
Bea Duarte
Clown
The shadow that follows you
Chases you as much as I do
The truest laugh outshines
All the pain you’ve been through
Just like I do
I do
Who wants to buy my heart?
Who could ever make me smile?
Tears that wash the soul on the ground
With joy when they make me
Smile
I’ve never seen a clown cry
Even while he’s the center of the show
And if one day it all should end
It was worth the laughter, the songs
The fear that keeps you captive
Is the same that makes you move
It drives me too, it’s always near me
For better or worse
I don’t know
But I’ll fly
(Ah)
Who wants to ride my balloon
Of crooked laughter they give me soon
Tears that lift the soul from the ground
With joy when they make me
Smile
I’ve never seen a clown cry
Even while he’s the center of the show
And if one day it all should end
It was worth the laughter, the songs
(Ladies and gentlemen)
(I present to you)
(Yourselves)
(The child, the star)
(Bringing laughter, bringing shadow)
(The mirror that no one)
(Dares to face)
(Who could ever make the clown laugh?)
(And who would dare)
(To make the clown cry?)
