Jasper - Caetano Veloso

Time is as weak as water

I’m kneeling on the shore

Showers, palmfronds

Cross me spilling

Silver, sidewalks

Lips so red world so wide

Around my head

Waiting

Time is as weak as water

I taught myself a lesson

I put myself to sleep

Sirens, jasmin

Jasper, flagpole

Tree top, sidewalk

Thursday night, magnolia

Along my street

Later

I taught myself a lesson
