I Must Split Myself in Two

Don't think it's nonsense
That no one gets up even though I laugh
I've been dealing with people for a while
Who say I sing indecent things

I love you, my love
Don't leave me alone
I can't be without you
See, I cry

Don't you see?, I'm already decent
It was easy for me
For the audience to gather and acclaim me
For the children to approach
The rhythm lovers
For the intellectuals to remain seated
I must split myself in two

Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter the fate
That may come
A song
Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter if later
They suspend my performance

I also sang in minor keys
I also suffered from those pains
I also seemed to sing like a saint
I also repeated in millions of songs

I love you, my love
Don't leave me alone
I can't be without you
See, I cry

But I got tangled up in more matters
And things from this world appeared
"Rifle against rifle", "The Trova song"
And "the era giving birth" became fashionable
I must split myself in two

Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter the fate
That may come
A song
Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter if later
They suspend my performance

I wanted to sing hooded
And then confuse myself by your side
Even if I didn't have friends and dates like that
And some favor from a pretty girl
But

I love you, my love
Don't leave me alone
I can't be without you
See, I cry

I'm not going to repeat that chorus
Some eyes look with bad shine
And I'm afraid now of not being understood
It often happens that something bad is thought
I must split myself in two

Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter the fate
That may come
A song
Some say here
Others say there
And I just want to say
I just want to sing
And it doesn't matter if later
They suspend my performance
