Explode Coração
Maria Bethânia
Exploding Heart
Enough of trying to pretend and disguise and conceal
What can’t be kept hidden and I can’t keep silent any longer
Since the glow of that gaze was pure guile
And it gave away what you tried to hold back
Feelings you didn’t want to unleash and it crushed me
Enough of being afraid, crying, suffering, smiling, giving myself up
Enough of losing myself and thinking this is all just life
What I want is to open myself up and let life come in like that
Like the sun deflowering the dawn
I want to feel the pain of that morning
Breaking out, ripping, taking my body and then I
Crying, suffering, desiring, adoring, crying out
Feeling crazy, as in an illusion, and like a child
Feeling my love spilling out
There's no holding back, my heart is exploding
