Selva Alegre

Sorry for the extra drinks
I know it's probably not the time
But a wound has been opened
Again I started thinking
About the promises of love you used to make me
Sorry, I couldn't give more
And I swear it was love that opened the bottle
The worst of these peaceful times
Is living longing for the times of war

Sorry, and with these words I leave
But it was love that played me
Maybe a 'I hate you' sounds better
Than the cold passion of an 'I love you' that means nothing
Sorry, I just wanted to think
That I could still touch
The love that you still have
The worst of these times of love
Is the coldness of the goodbye in spring

And don't hang up yet
I'm about to hang up
I just wanted to tell you, happy new year, my heart
And if I'm alone and bitter
It's because of your love
And it's the best thing that has happened to me
I thank God for that

Sorry, I know I was going to leave
But it's love that bursts out of my chest
Time never said
What the passion of your bed wanted to say
Sorry, but I started thinking
If you could offer me your hand again
I invite you to a waltz
Let's go to the sea
And swim in it

And don't hang up yet
I'm about to hang up
I just wanted to tell you, happy new year, my heart
And if I'm alone and bitter
It's because of your love
And it's the best thing that has happened to me
I thank God for that
