O Negócio é Amar
Carlos Lyra
The Deal is to Love
There are people who love and live fighting
And after the fight, they end up coming back
There are people who sing because they are in love
Those without love go through life waiting
Some move forward and never forget
But they are so few that they don't even show up
There are some who are weak and turn to drink
Others make samba and love to suffer
There are lovers who serenade
There's love of pedigree and love of strays
Love with champagne, love with cachaça
Love on yachts, on park benches
There are men who fight for their beloved
There are crazy women who endure blows
There are those who love so much they go crazy
There are those who give their lives for those who don't deserve
Love at first sight, love on credit
Jealous love that only causes trouble
There are people who swear they won't come back
But they swear knowing they're not capable
There are people who even write poetry
And rhyme longing with hypocrisy
There's plenty to talk about
But it doesn't matter, the deal is to love
