Lyrics & Translation

[Portuguese]

[English]

Ela não ideia

She has no idea

Que a ideia que eu faço é linda

That the idea I have is beautiful

Depois do corona e da vacina

After the corona and the vaccine

A trocar o sofá pela praia

Swapping the couch for the beach

Saltar da rotina

Breaking out of the routine

Que a vida volte a ser dois dias

That life becomes two days again

Yeah

Yeah

E que o carnaval nos dê samba a vida inteira

And that Carnival gives us samba all year long

Bora sair da sala baby eu já nos vejo em Bali

Let’s go out, baby, I can already see us in Bali

A pedir outra garrafa para o nosso por-do-sol

Asking for another bottle for our sunset

Eu sei que ainda é cedo

I know it’s still early

E que é pouco provável

And it’s unlikely

Mas deixa-me sonhas enquanto não chega o calor

But let me dream while the heat isn’t here yet

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Tudo tudo tudo em 2021

Everything, everything, everything in 2021

Tou cansado de tar em casa

I’m tired of being stuck at home

Já confinei tanto que até já dou nomes às paredes

I’ve been in quarantine so long I even name the walls

Enquanto isto não passa

While this all passes

Ver TV já cansa

Watching TV just bores me

A porta da despensa já se tá a abrir sem querer e eu não me entendo

The pantry door keeps opening on its own and I don’t understand myself

O ano é novo e nem parece diferente

The year is new but doesn’t feel different

Desespero e só tu me dás alento

Desperation hits, and only you give me comfort

O clima sobe tá quente

The heat rises, it’s hot

E nós os dois de repente

And suddenly it’s just the two of us

Quero aprender contigo baby vem

I want to learn with you, baby, come on

Então ensina-me a ver que a vida é fácil se tu fores a companhia

So teach me how to see that life is easy if you're the company

E o carnaval dá-nos samba a vida inteira (Bora)

And Carnival gives us samba all year long (Let’s go)

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero

With you, I want

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Soco soco, bate bate, soco soco, vira vira,

Punch punch, hit hit, punch punch, turn around

Soco bate, soco vira, soco bate vira

Punch hits, punch turns, punch hits, turns around

De todas do mundo és a mais gira

Of all the girls in the world, you’re the hottest

Contigo ao meu lado sou melhor todos os dias

With you by my side, I’m better every day

E dançamos na sala

And we dance in the living room

Juntos de mãos dadas

Hand in hand

Damos uma vida para mais um por-do-sol

Sharing another sunset

Eu sei que ainda é cedo e que é pouco provável

I know it’s still early and unlikely

Mas deixa-me sonhar enquanto não chega o calor

But let me dream while the heat isn’t here yet

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Tudo tudo tudo em 2021

Everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Tudo tudo tudo em 2021

Everything, everything, everything in 2021

Contigo eu quero

With you, I want

Contigo eu quero

With you, I want

Contigo eu quero tudo tudo tudo em 2021

With you, I want everything, everything, everything in 2021

Tudo tudo tudo em 2021

Everything, everything, everything in 2021
