Me Ame Hoje

The right time
Is always now
Come like this

How much time fits in a hug?
How many kisses fit in love?
How many comings, goings, lives
Fit in time?

The child's carefree smile
The frail step of an elder
The beautiful day that becomes a memory
The departure of one who never returned
How much peace is lost in a fight
How much forgiveness is lost to resentment?
A minute, an hour lost
What value does it have?

That's how Brasília is
So love me today
So kiss me now
Don't let me waste another second
Because tomorrow I might have to leave

So love me today
So kiss me now
Don't let me waste another second
Because if there's one thing you can't do anymore is waste time

The child's carefree smile
The frail step of an elder
The beautiful day that becomes a memory
The departure of one who never returned
How much peace is lost in a fight
How much forgiveness is lost to resentment?
A minute, an hour lost
What value does it have?

So love me today
So kiss me now
Don't let me waste another second
Because tomorrow I might have to leave
So love me today
So kiss me now
Don't let me waste another second
Because if there's one thing you can't do anymore is waste time
Because it doesn't come back
You can't waste time anymore
