Amor Nunca Morre

Love that is love never dies
Told me a friend
Forever I kept the memory
Of what he said
And seeing the world's problems
I thought to myself
It's people who made mistakes in their search
And got disappointed

And whenever I questioned myself
It was the same answer
Love that is love never dies
I would say again
And on cloudless nights
I found myself contemplating the stars
And seeing them shine again
That's when I could understand

Love that is love never dies
But can it actually happen
That the dark clouds of time
For endless time, don't let it shine

Love that is love never dies
This friend repeats
I agree and won't argue
That he may be right
But I also think that this love
That today makes headlines
Is more selfishness than love
It's madness, it's passion

And I always see
Around me this ease
Of people asking for another chance
Another love, another home
I think of the withered flowers
In that flowerbed
That some gardener forgot
Or didn't want to cultivate

Love that is love never dies
But it can also happen
That like certain rose bushes
That are not cultivated, it may not grow

Love that is love never dies
But it can also happen
That the lack of someone to cultivate it
It lives small and doesn't grow
