Amor e Saudade

I passed through your town, it was already past midnight
The lights on your street were almost out
I spent hours reminiscing about our past life
The time of our love that ended, all turned to nothing

Your little sad house was all shut tight
And on the porch line, some clothes hanging out
I found, among them, your yellowed shirt
It made my longing grow, oh what a bitter life

Back when we were in love, I walked a lot
I’d arrive at your place even late at night
You, in a black coat, came all in love
There, we’d hug without anyone seeing a thing

But in this world, everything passes, fate is set
You married someone else, I went on my way
I left you waving at me on the curve of the road
Goodbye, pretty girl, sweet-smelling white rose
