Da Maior Importância
Caetano Veloso
Of Great Importance
It was a brief moment, a way
Something like that
It was a move that made you stop
Liking me right
It could've been at the beach, fear
It's gonna be a mistake, a word
The wrong word
Nothing, nothing
Just almost nothing
And I almost don’t like you
And I don’t even like the way that suddenly
You were looked at by us
'Cause I’m shy and there was this thing
Of you asking my sign when there wasn’t
Any sign at all
Scorpio, Sagittarius, I don’t know what
It turned into a dumb conversation, a chat
That was going well
It’s so hard, so simple
Hard, so easy
Suddenly being something so big
Of great importance
There must be some kind of connection
For you and for me
Between us
And you throwing it away, now
Get lost, go!
There’s gotta be some way, sometime!
There’s always a man
For a woman
There are ten women for each one
A woman is always a woman, etc. and so on
And just like there are UFOs
And the darkness of the future
There could be what depends
On a brief pure moment of love
But you didn’t have the spark and now
I’m not the one who’s gonna
Tell you to stay
You didn’t have the spark
And now I’m not the one who’s gonna
Tell you to stay
But you
Didn’t have the spark
And now
I’m not the one who’s gonna
Tell you to stay
