With my glass raised high, I stand up
It's my turn to give an toast in difficult times
I'd like to give something that inspires hope
Or that overused phrase "together we will overcome"
Let's see, what should I say... I am not a mind reader
Any forecast would be erratic
Good times are coming... I don't doubt it.
But, what do we do meanwhile?
Just look around
See so many faces full of uncertainty
The elderly look so calm
Because they know that everything is relative
They say, living in fear is not good business
Only for the news companies
All I say is, whether the future is black or white
Let's live meanwhile
Meanwhile, let's live meanwhile
Let's run in the rain, barefoot
Jumping from puddle to puddle
Meanwhile, let's look for that girl
That has us daydreaming
Let's steal a first kiss... or a few
Let's live with the fear that today is the last day
From the time that the last dinosaur died
Many great changes are coming, according to the optimists
But let's not take a step, just in case
The past is a tale, and the future hasn't come
Our life passes by, as we wait
The whole world is betting
That one day we will get out this mess
And all I care about is the "meanwhile"
Meanwhile, let's enjoy, meanwhile
Let's waste our lungs in the shower
Singing out of tune
Meanwhile, and why not girl friend, grab a stranger
Give him a first kiss, or maybe a few
It's been you, disguised as you
Who has given birth to your enemies
It was God, disguised as you
Who healed all the punishment
Meanwhile, let's improvise,
And as a certain song goes
"I'm still here"
Meanwhile, my friend, meanwhile
Let's copy the children's stories
That our grandparents used to tell us
So that this situation improves, dear men,
The best of intentions
But as this mess gets straightened out...
Meanwhile, let's go out to the field
Let's lay on our backs
Let's get some mud therapy
Meanwhile let's find that girl
That we're madly in love with
Let's steal a first kiss
Tomorrow... We'll see
But let's not freeze today
Meanwhile
Tomorrow is another day
And today is not over yet...
