Detalhes

Don't even bother trying to forget me
For a long time in your life, I will live

Details so small about us
Are things too big to forget
And all the time they will be present
You'll see

If another long-haired guy shows up on your street
And that brings you memories of me, it's your fault
The loud roar of my car
The old faded jeans or something like that
Immediately you'll remember me

I know that another must be whispering in your ear
Words of love like I did, but, I doubt
I doubt he has as much love
And even the mistakes of my bad Portuguese
And at that moment you'll remember me

The night wrapped in the silence of your room
Before sleeping, you look for my picture
But in the frame, it's not me who smiles at you
But you see my smile anyway
And all of this will make you remember me

If someone touches your body like I do, don't say anything
Don't accidentally say my name to the wrong person
Thinking you have love in that moment, desperate, you try until the end
And even in that moment you'll remember me

I know these details will fade on the long road
Of time that turns all love into almost nothing
But almost is also another detail
A great love won't die like that
That's why, from time to time, you'll remember me

Don't even bother trying to forget me
For a very, very long time in your life, I will live
