Parei Na Contramão
Roberto Carlos
Stopped in the Wrong Way
I was flying in my car
When I saw ahead
On the sidewalk, a careless girl
I signaled left and turned
The speed I was going, I don't know
I hit the brakes obeying my heart and stopped
Stopped in the wrong way
The careless girl didn't even look at me
I honked the horn but it didn't work
The girl continues her path without noticing me
I thought for a moment she would stop
I accelerated and unintentionally ran the red light
The guard blew the whistle
The guard was signaling me from afar
And by his expression, I could tell he wasn't pleased
I said Cupid was the one who distracted me
But my wallet ended up in jail
I think that guard has never fallen in love
Because my wallet, the villain, took
When I got rid of the guard, I didn't see the girl
But I know that one day she will come back
And this time I know the horn will work
The guard was signaling me from afar
And by his expression, I could tell he wasn't pleased
I said Cupid was the one who distracted me
But my wallet ended up in jail
I think that guard has never fallen in love
Because my wallet, the villain, took
When I got rid of the guard, I didn't see the girl
But I know that one day she will come back
And this time I know the horn will work
And this time I know the horn will work
