Amar Não é Crime

The little letter you wrote, I read it carefully and tore it up
Among the saddest phrases I read, only these words I kept
My dear, our love is impossible, forget me and I will forget you
I can't erase your memory, nor can I forget that I loved you

The dear letter of disdain you wrote was useless
We can't live apart, our love was stronger and prevailed
But in those moments of anguish, this heartfelt waltz was born
In the madness of deep love that exists between you and me

I will follow the laws of the heart, loving you for all eternity
I will make love our law and the law our own will
The sacred Bible tells us we must keep chastity
But it also commands us to love one another, I loved you, this is the great truth

And on the day of final judgment, up in heaven when we are judged
I will say that you are innocent and only I was guilty
Then before the Lord, I will confess my sublime sin
And happily in my mistake, if loving you was a crime, I want to be condemned
