Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

No começo parecia brincadeira

At first, it seemed like a game

Não sabíamos que era pra vida inteira

We didn't know it was for a lifetime

Os caminhos tomam rumos diferentes

The paths take different turns

Tinha que ser você, o amor achou a gente

It had to be you, love found us


Mas um dia o rio encontra o mar

But one day the river meets the sea

E eu tô aqui pra gente continuar

And I'm here for us to continue


Hoje o correr do tempo fez sentido

Today, the passing of time made sense

Pra um querer que parecia proibido

For a desire that seemed forbidden

Só que Deus já tinha escrito há muito tempo

But God had already written long ago

Que seríamos a folha e o vento

That we would be the leaf and the wind


E o que foi virou prefácio do que somos

And what was became the preface of what we are

E é real o que pra nós era um sonho

And what was a dream for us is now real


Chamam isso de destino eu não sei

They call this destiny, I don't know

Mas desde o início sempre te cuidei

But from the beginning, I've always taken care of you

Chamam isso de amor, eu também acho

They call this love, I think so too

Mas seja como for, me dá um abraço

But however it is, give me a hug
