| It's not because I soiled the
|
| clothes well now that I was leaving
|
| Not even because I took the
|
| increased traffic and I ended up missing the cinema
|
| It's not because I don't think the role
|
| where I wrote down the phone I need
|
| Not even the finger I cut opening the can and
|
| still continues to bleed
|
| It's not because I did poorly on the geometry test and danger of me repeating the year
|
| Not even my car that stopped at dawn just for lack of gasoline
|
| It's not because it's too cold, it's not because it's too hot
|
| The problem is that I love you
|
| I have no doubt that with you it would work out
|
| Together we would make so many plans
|
| With you my world would be complete
|
| I see our children playing
|
| And then they would grow up, and they would give us their grandchildren
|
| The hunger that devours a few million Brazilians
|
| Next to that it doesn't even matter
|
| The death that makes us the irreplaceable mother all of a sudden
|
| I don't even remember her anymore
|
| The defeat of 50 and the campaign of 70 totally lose their meaning,
|
| The dates, facts and anniversaries pass
|
| Without leaving the slightest trace
|
| Injuries and promises and lies and offenses fall away
|
| by the other ear
|
| My wallet was stolen with my documents
|
| Annoyances that I no longer care
|
| It's not because I wanted to and I didn't
|
| It's not because I didn't go
|
| And I won't
|
| The problem is that I love you
|
| I have no doubt that I wanted to be closer
|
| Together we would live for a thousand years
|
| Why would our world be complete
|
| I see our children playing
|
| With their children who would later bring us great-grandchildren
|
| It's not because I know she won't come
|
| that I don't see the door already opening
|
| And that I don't want to have her,
|
| even if this reasoning doesn't have the slightest logic
|
| It's not that I'm looking for luck in the infinite
|
| to walk with me
|
| If faith removes even mountains, desire is what makes the unreal possible
|
| That's not why I can't be happy, smiling and singing
|
| That's not why she can't be happy, smiling and singing
|
| I won't say I don't care, I say what I feel and what I am
|
| The problem is that I love you
|
| Have no doubts, for this is no longer secret
|
| Together we would die, because we love each other
|
| And from us the world would be deserted
|
| I see our children remembering
|
| With your children who would already have their grandchildren |
