Foi Assim

Listen well to what I'm going to say
I want to tell a story
Life has beautiful, bad things
But that's just how it is

They say there are unlucky tides
I believe it's true
But I believe they don't come to stay

You need to know how to live, have strength to overcome
The games that life plays on us without warning
But you need to know how to live, have strength to overcome
The games that life plays on us without warning

When we think we are loved by someone
And they leave us for trivial things (oh my love)
We look back at a life that has passed
And the abyss of disillusionment
Erases the light of that illusion

(I lost you, my brother
But you will always be by my side
After all that I've learned
I want to live one day at a time
As if it were the eve of goodbye)

(Yélá, yélélá, my love was hers, was hers)
(Yélá, yélélá, my love was hers, only hers)

You were the one I always dreamed of and swore to love
I gave you my heart, without any condition
(I gave you my heart, without any condition)
Life insists on things that transcend our desire
To want, to love, to suffer, and to be faithful
To be faithful

(Yélá, yélélá, my love was hers, was hers)
(Yélá, yélélá, my love was hers, only hers)

I will cleanse my heart, I will outsmart loneliness
Because I know love will come
Because whoever knows how to love, will one day be loved
Then I can say

(Yélá, yélélá, my love is hers, is hers)
(Yélá, yélélá, my love is hers, only hers)
Now my love is hers
(Yélá, yélélá, my love is hers)
Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum (is hers)
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow
(Yélá, yélélá)
