Chorei de Saudade
César Menotti & Fabiano
Cried from Longing
You ask me in your letter
To just disappear
To never look for you again
And forget you for good
I can do what you want
Grant your request
But forgetting is foolish
It's a waste of time
Just yesterday I cried from longing
Rereading the letter, smelling the perfume
But what to do with this pain that invades me?
Do I kill this love or does jealousy kill me?
All day long I hate you, I search for you, I hunt you down
But in my dreams at night, I kiss you and hold you tight
Because dreams are mine, no one can steal or take them
Better to dream the truth
Than to love in a lie
You ask me in your letter
To just disappear
To never look for you again
And forget you for good
I can do what you want
Grant your request
But forgetting is foolish
It's a waste of time
Just yesterday I cried from longing
Rereading the letter, smelling the perfume
But what to do with this pain that invades me?
Do I kill this love or does jealousy kill me?
All day long I hate you, I search for you, I hunt you down
But in my dreams at night, I kiss you and hold you tight
Because dreams are mine, no one can steal or take them
Better to dream the truth
Than to love in a lie
