O Que Tinha Que Ser Lyrics Translation in English
Tom Jobim
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Porque foste na vida
Because you were in life
A última esperança
The last hope
Encontrar-te me fez criança
Finding you made me a child
Porque já eras meu
Because you were already mine
Sem eu saber sequer
Without me even knowing
Porque és o meu homem
Because you are my man
E eu tua mulher.
And I, your woman
Porque tu me chegaste
Because you came to me
Sem me dizer que vinhas
Without telling me you were coming
E tuas mãos foram minhas com calma
And your hands became mine, calmly
Porque foste em minh'alma
Because you went into my soul
Como um amanhecer
Like a dawn
Porque foste o que tinha de ser.
Because you were what had to be
