Lost In The Paradise

Gal Costa · Gal Costa [1969]

(Caetano Veloso)



My little grasshopper

Airplane cannot fly very high

I find you so far from my side

I'm lost in my old in my own green light



Don't help me, my love

My brother, my girl

Just tell her name

Just let me say who am I



Her big white plastic finger

Surrounds my dark green hair,

But it's not your unknown right hand

But it's not your unknown right hand



Oh, don't help me, my love

My brother, my girl

Just tell her name

Just let me say who am I



I am the sun, the darkness,

My name is green wave death, salt

South America's my name

World is my name, my size

And honor my name

Hear my



My little grasshopper airplane

Cannot fly very high



Oh, don't help me, my love

My brother, my girl

Just tell her name

Just let me say who am I
