Distância Cruel

Got your note
But couldn't read
My eyes cried sadly missing you

All the words got wet
With the tears that fell
It was the cruel distance
When I couldn't see you

In truth, you didn't come
But sent a memory
A tiny note
That you signed

Seeing your face
So beautiful as can be
Thinking about the distance
I cried without realizing

Now I have in my hands
Your enchanted photo
And a small note
With faded letters

But, it's not your fault, my lovely girlfriend
The reason for my tears
Was the wicked longing

I tried to stop my tears
But couldn't
Ended up reading
In your note in a few lines

I apologize, dear
For it to happen this way
The reason I cried so much
Was thinking of you
The reason I cried so much was thinking of you
