Lyrics & Translation
Experience the poignant emotions of love and loss through Ivete Sangalo's heartfelt ballad "Deixo." This song, a staple in Brazilian music, offers a beautiful exploration of saudade and the complex act of letting go, providing a relatable journey through universal themes of the heart.
Just a thought somewhere
I only think of you, wanting to find you, ah, ah
I only think of you, wanting to see you
I remember that kiss you gave me
That’s still engraved in me today
And when night falls, I go crazy wanting to sleep
Just to have you in my dreams
Talking to me about love
I feel like I lose myself in time
Underneath my blanket
I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
I remember that kiss you gave me
That’s still engraved in me today
And when night falls, I go crazy wanting to sleep
Just to have you in my dreams
Talking to me about love, oh-uh, oh-oh
I feel like I lose myself in time
Underneath my blanket
I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
I let you go
I let you go
I let you go
I let you go
And I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
I would do anything not to lose you, like this
But the day comes and I let you go
