Translation of the song lyrics Foi Assim Que Descobri - Santamaria

Foi Assim Que Descobri (original)

O teu olhar no meu era uma estrela que brilhava
O teu peito no meu era um instante que ficava
A coisa que eu mais queria era voltar a ver-te sorrir
E de ter de volta o teu olhar sem ter que te pedir
Quando me punhas os dedos, os dedos na minha mão
Parecia que levitava, sustinha a respiração
Era então que te beijava, tinhas os olhos fechados
Quase que o mundo acabava e nós ali sentados
Foi então que descobri
Foi então que eu senti
O quanto te amava
Do que eu era capaz por ti
Trocávamos palavras como quem escreve poemas
Dizias que comigo não precisavas de temas
Eu tocava-te baladas que ouvias com atenção
Eram provas dadas do que me ia no coração
Foi então que descobri
Foi então que eu senti
O quanto te amava
Do que eu era capaz por ti
Foi então que descobri
Foi então que eu senti
O quanto te amava
Do que eu era capaz por ti

Foi Assim Que Descobri (translation)

Your gaze in mine was a shining star
Your breast in mine was an instant that stayed
The thing I wanted most was to see you smile again
And to have your look back without having to ask you
When you put your fingers on me, your fingers on my hand
It looked like it was levitating, holding its breath
It was then that I was kissing you, your eyes were closed
The world almost ended and we were sitting there
It was then that I discovered
It was then that I felt
How much I loved you
What I was capable of for you
We exchanged words like someone who writes poems
You said you didn't need themes with me
I played ballads for you that you listened to carefully
They were evidence given of what was in my heart
It was then that I discovered
It was then that I felt
How much I loved you
What I was capable of for you
It was then that I discovered
It was then that I felt
How much I loved you
What I was capable of for you
