lyrics

NA DISTANTE

Na distante ouço sua vôz
Na distancia
A noite gira perto, e vôçe nao está.

O quém pudesse amado
Aquellos olhos cubertos
O quém pudesse vivido
Num mundo no meia das estrellas.

Tão longe daquí o meu amor
Tão distante
Qué importava que amei-o,
Ele ja não está.


Mesmo perto, sua pele al lado de mim
Não pude conhecer vôçe
O qué quería?

Porqué me tocabas.
Eu amei a vôçe.



IN THE DISTANCE

In the distance I hear your voice
In the distance
The night revolves closely
And you are not here.

Who could have loved those blanketed eyes
Who could have lived in a world among the stars.

You are so far my love, you are so far.
What did it matter that I loved him?
He is not here anymore.


Even so close to you, you skin next to mine
I could not know you.
What did you want?
Why did you touch me.
I loved you.
