Se Amar é Viver

If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you

I love you, it's been so long
But I never, never had the courage to tell you my feelings

If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you

I remember you from school days
Your braids, your blue apron, your beautiful smile
I was the one who wrote in your notebook, those love phrases
But you never imagined it was me, that shy boy
Your great admirer in love
I was so ashamed just thinking that you might one day know about my love for you
I always loved you, always

If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you

Today after so long I found you on the street
How beautiful you were
And I told myself, today I won't be a coward
I'll tell her everything, everything that I've kept in my heart for so long
But suddenly a child ran into your arms
Calling you mom
And once again that old fear
I realized then that it was already too late, too late for us
And without you seeing me, I left
I left crying and singing
This song

If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
If loving is living, I live because I love you
