Por Que Você Não Vem Morar Comigo?

Why don't you come live with me
Feed my dog, my ego
I'm tired of being like this, buddy
I don't know how to just be your friend

I want to be your beloved now
You leave me in danger
Love cuts me like a dagger
But then you come and soothe
With affection so ancient

You don't take seriously what I say
And fill the glass that intoxicates me
You nail me to the cross like Jesus of Prague
But always defend me and take my fights

I don't care
If it's love or vague friendship
They say love ruins friendship
And this one takes away its vigor

I don't care
If it's prudishness or cheesy romanticism
One day this affliction in me calms down
Live with me and bring your love

I love the way you hold me
Call me my dear, my darling
And when you hug me and I surrender
Then you come and say be careful with this attachment

Friends say I pay this price
Because I change right away when you arrive
And turn on the light, but this light blinds me
And turns the stone I carry in my chest into a rose
