[English]

This is the end of Earth's odyssey

I am Adam, and you will be

My little Eva

...

(Jump out of the ground)

...

My love, look

Today the sun didn't show up

And this is the end

Of humanity's adventure on Earth

My planet, God

We’ll run away together on Noah’s Ark

Look closely, my love

It’s the end of Earth's odyssey

I am Adam, and you will be...

(Go up, up, keep going)

My little Eva (Eva)

Our love on the last spaceship (Eva)

Beyond infinity, I will fly

Alone with you

And soaring so high (Eva)

Hold me through space for just a moment (Eva)

Cover me with your body and give me

The strength to live

My love, look

Today the sun didn't show up

And this is the end of humanity’s adventure on Earth

Goodbye

We’ll escape together

On Noah’s Ark

Love, this is the end of Earth's odyssey

I am Adam, and you will be...

My little Eva (Eva)

Our love on the last spaceship (Eva)

Beyond infinity, I will fly

Alone with you

And soaring so high (Eva)

Hold me through space for just a moment (Eva)

Cover me with your body and give me

The strength to live

And through space for just a moment

After all, there’s nothing more than the blue sky

For us to fly

Over Rio, Beirut, or Madagascar

Across the whole Earth

Reduced to nothing

Nothing more

My life is a flash (Flash)

Of controls, anti-atomic buttons

Look closely, my love

This is the end of the odyssey, earthly

I am Adam, and you will be...

(Go up, go up and go, go)

My little Eva (Eva)

Our love on the last spaceship (Eva)

Beyond infinity, I will fly

Alone with you

And soaring so high (Eva)

Hold me through space for just a moment (Eva)

Cover me with your body and give me

(The strength to live)

...

My little Eva

(Oohh)

...

[Portuguese]

É o final da odiesseia terrestre

Eu sou Adão e você será

Minha pequena Evaa

(Sai do chão)

Meu amor, olha só

Hoje o sol não apareceu

E é o fim

Da aventura humana na Terra

Meu planeta Deus

Fugiremos nós dois na arca de Noé

Olha bem meu amor

É o final da odisséia terrestre

Sou Adão e você será...

(Sobe, sobe, vai)

Minha pequena Eva (Eva)

O nosso amor na última astronave (Eva)

Além do infinito eu vou voar

Sozinho com você

E voando bem alto (Eva)

Me abraça pelo espaço de um instante (Eva)

Me cobre com teu corpo e me dá

A força pra viver

Meu amor, olha so

Hoje o sol não apareceu

E é o fim da aventura humana na Terra

Adeus

Fugiremos nos dois

Na arca de noé

Amor, é o final da odisseia terrestre

Sou Adão e você será...

Minha pequena Eva (Eva)

O nosso amor na última astronave (Eva)

Além do infinito eu vou voar

Sozinho com você

E voando bem alto (Eva)

Me abraça pelo espaço de um instante (Eva)

Me cobre com teu corpo e me dá

A força pra viver

E pelo espaço de um instante

Afinal, não há nada mais que o céu azul

Pra gente voar

Sobre o Rio, Beirute ou Madagascar

Toda a Terra

Reduzida a nada

Nada mais

Minha vida é um flash (Flash)

De controles, botões anti-atômicos

Olha bem, meu amor

É o final da odisséia, terrestre

Sou Adão e você será...

(Sobe, sobe e vai, vai)

Minha pequena Eva (Eva)

O nosso amor na última astronave (Eva)

Além do infinito eu vou voar

Sozinho com você

E voando bem alto (Eva)

Me abraça pelo espaço de um instante (Eva)

Me cobre com teu corpo e me dá

(A força pra viver)

Minha pequena Eva

(Oohh)
