Cadeira Vazia
Lupicínio Rodrigues
Empty Chair
Come in, my love, make yourself comfortable
And tell me honestly what you want from me
Come in, you can come in, the house is yours
Since you're tired of living on the street
And your dreams have come to an end
I suffered so much when you were gone
I spent so many hours sad
That I don't even want to remember that day
But one thing you can be sure of
That in your place here at my table
Your chair is still empty
You are the prodigal daughter who returns
Searching at my door
What the world didn't give you
And pretend I'm your daddy
Who has been here alone for so long
Waiting for your affection
You're back, you're fine, I'm happy
You just found me very different
I will tell you with all my heart
I will not give you affection or affection
But to shelter you, you can occupy my roof
To feed you, you can eat my bread
