Casaco Verde
Teodoro e Sampaio
Green Coat
In the bedclothes of our room
There is still a little comfort
Because I still feel your perfume
And on the calendar marked with X
The day and month that mean a lot to me
As it marks the time of your sad goodbye
And in the wardrobe if I open it, I see
The green coat that she left
Majestic, it seems to talk to me
Wanting to prove that it's my friend
Because only it didn't abandon me
Green coat, green hope
Faithful companion of my agony
You are just pieces of cloth
But the cruel longing disappointment
Because it reminds me of the body you covered
In hot nights or cold nights
For me, it's always nights of agony
Like a sleepwalker, I pass awake
It's become routine, no longer a surprise
The neighbors see the lights on
Because they know I'm almost delirious
And in the early hours, it's already my habit
To go to the wardrobe near the window
And return to bed kissing the coat
To fall asleep with it in my arms
Dreaming of sleeping with her
Green coat, green hope
Faithful companion of my agony
You are just pieces of cloth
But the cruel longing disappointment
Because it reminds me of the body you covered
