O Último Baile

In a tiny house
In a poor neighborhood of the city
Lived with her dear mother
The one I truly loved
But this love I felt
I did not reveal to her
For I thought it was
Just a friend to her
I was wrong

Once on a beautiful night
Her mother asked me
Take this girl to the dance
And she left with me
We arrived at that ballroom
And started to dance
She rested her face
On my face, smiling beautifully
Dancing with me

She danced in my arms without thinking
That she would never see the sky, the Sun shine again
That night never left my life
I lost myself when I lost you, my dear

After finishing that song
We stopped to rest
I left her sitting there
And went to buy a beer
At that moment, a guy
Invited her to dance
She said no
As she was tired and was already
Going back home

The guy, all enraged
Didn't believe the story
At that moment, I returned
And she came back to dance with me
The guy, crazed
Fired his gun
She fell into my arms
And almost lifeless said to me
Goodbye, my love
