one o’clock last morning, 20th april, 1970

Gilberto Gil

I came home so happy
I came when it was coming up to one
I mean I came when the midnight was past
I mean I came when the middle age was gone
I mean I came when it was coming up to one
Yes my oneness
At one o’clock last morning

I saw him tão triste
I told him he was alive and he could cry
I mean I saw him so sad that I said a thing
I told him he was a bird and he could fly
I mean I saw him when it was coming up to become
Such a sadness
At one o’clock last morning
