Tempo Pra Quê

You asked for time for what?
If time passes and I realize I don't want to be without you
You asked for time for what?
Now swear that you lie to me the moment you say
That you're better off this way
Humm
That you're better off this way
Yeah
So far from me
That you're better off this way
Yeah yeah, yeah oh

I want to have you here with me
I already told you let's turn things around
I know I was once your addiction
Come come
No need for sensibility
So live now as if it were the first time, no
When you thought I had failed you
It didn't work
You criticized me for not being by your side
But I
Know it's not the right thing
Confess
I know that with time you'll make the right choice
I only think of every touch, every hug I don't forget
You leaving and turning my world upside down
Yes I know, you didn't do it on purpose
There was a blank page without a period
But you risked and crossed out everything we have
Without denying that I'm the one who knows your secrets
Without looking into my eyes so you don't get lost
And if you're better off this way, don't call so many times

You asked for time for what?
If time passes and I realize I don't want to be without you
You asked for time for what?
Now swear that you lie to me the moment you say
That you're better off this way
Humm
That you're better off this way
Yeah
So far from me
That you're better off this way
Yeah yeah, yeah oh

If I told you everything I feel
Everything I pretend, everything I try
But you want space, you don't need me
You only need yourself, you only need time
You are my strength, I am your weakness
I dotted the I's, you put the points aside
I'm not pressuring you, I know nothing lasts forever
But sorry for thinking that it was different with you
Now there's indifference, it only stays in conscience
That it was on the lines of your body that I wrote my essence
You'll look for me in others, I know you have that tendency
And you insist on this time and for me to be patient
And I wait and despair without anything happening
Writing and erasing poems that you don't deserve
And there you are, spinning in my head, because there's something in me
That says you don't want me to forget you

You asked for time for what?
If time passes and I realize I don't want to be without you
You asked for time for what?
Now swear that you lie to me the moment you say
That you're better off this way
Humm
That you're better off this way
Yeah
So far from me
That you're better off this way
Yeah yeah

I created music in your ear, I'm the man behind the score
Whispering softly the melody that makes the flute
Cold heart in a warm body
You're no longer needed
I took you to the moon because I thought nothing beats an astronaut
You asked me for space and time
I gave you time and space
Instead of space in time
You lost time in space
You don't promise to commit, the climate cools inside
And even when the sun shines, the days remain gray
I never thought you loving me was an impossible mission
But don't apologize for being so predictable
If lying is ugly, then darling you're horrible
Those tears that flow, are black like mascara
I don't even feel you from afar, I always stay fearless
I don't want to know the truth, everyone has secrets
I feel your five fingers in everything that shakes me
All the songs I hear seem to speak of you
Some say to act, others say to leave
Some say to smile, others say to cry
But it's easy to deceive me so let me think
That it's easier to make you come than to make you come back

You asked for time for what?
If time passes and I realize I don't want to be without you
You asked for time for what?
Now swear that you lie to me the moment you say
That you're better off this way
Hum
That you're better off this way
Yeah
So far from me
That you're better off this way
Yeah yeah, yeah, oh
