Porta Aberta
Luiz Ayrão
Open Door
Through the open door of a careless heart
An uncertain love came in at a time it shouldn’t have
It arrived, took over the house, did whatever it wanted, and left
Knocked on the door of my heart, which never opened again
And because of that, because of that, nostalgia took over me
But a friend noticed and said this
Why so much sadness, man?
Get rid of it and come with me to check out Portela, Portela
A phenomenon that can’t be explained
Portela, Portela, a current makes us dance without even trying
It’s her, it’s her, the new love I want to give myself to now
The samba worked miracles, reopened my heart for Portela to enter
The samba worked miracles, reopened my heart for Portela to enter
Through the open door of a careless heart
An uncertain love came in at a time it shouldn’t have
It arrived, took over the house, did whatever it wanted, and left
Knocked on the door of my heart, which never opened again
And because of that, because of that, nostalgia took over me
But a friend noticed and said this
Why so much sadness, man?
Get rid of it and come with me to check out Portela, Portela
A phenomenon that can’t be explained
Portela, Portela, a current makes us dance without even trying
It’s her, it’s her, the new love I want to give myself to now
The samba worked miracles, reopened my heart for Portela to enter
The samba worked miracles, reopened my heart for Portela to enter
