O Amor Não Sabe Esperar
Marisa Monte
Love Doesn't Know How to Wait
The light wind blows from the east
And ruffles the sea
I still wait for you to arrive
Night falls
Its dark cloak slowly descends
I still wait for you to arrive
Don't call, don't send a letter
Don't send someone to warn me
Don't go far, don't disappoint me
Love doesn't know how to wait
Being alone is slavery itself
Seeing you is seeing in the darkness
And when the sun rises
It may bring you to me
I open the door, decorate the house
Let the light in
I still wait for you to arrive
I write verses
Roses and incense to perfume
I still wait for you to arrive
Being alone is slavery itself
Seeing you is seeing in the darkness
And when the sun rises
Everything will shine for me
