[English]

It's natural

A whirlwind that passes here

More madness over there

Or a drought that devastated

Worse is not seeing you now

It brings out vices

Clear mornings

Or so much more

That I could have

Nothing means anything

If your kiss isn't mine

Heat is coming

Heat exploding

Fears hovering in the air

And I'm thinking of you

...

Did I fall in love?

Maybe, could be

Did I go crazy?

I don't know, I've never seen

I need to leave

After I discovered

That you exist

I never existed again

...

The more

You forget me

I love you but

Star, I feel love

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I don't know, I don't know

The more

You forget me

I love you but

Star, I feel love

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I don't know, I don't know

...

[Portuguese]

É natural

Um vendaval que passa aqui

Mais doidice ali

Ou uma seca que arrasou

Pior é não te ver agora

Aflora vícios

Claras manhãs

Ou tanto mais

Que eu possa ter

Nada quer dizer

Se o teu beijo não é meu

Cio chegando

Calor explodindo

Temores rondando o ar

E eu pensando em ti

Me apaixonei?

Talvez, pode ser

Enlouqueci?

Não sei, nunca vi

Preciso sair

Depois que descobri

Que há você

Nunca mais existi

É natural

Um vendaval que passa aqui

Mais doidice ali

Ou uma seca que arrasou

Pior é não te ver agora

Aflora vícios

Claras manhãs

Ou tanto mais

Que eu possa ter

Cio chegando

Calor explodindo

Temores rondando o ar

Cuanto más

Me olvidas

Te amo mas

Estrella, siento amor

No sé, no sé, no sé

No sé, no sé

Cuanto más

Me olvidas

Te amo mas

Estrella, siento amor

No sé, no sé, no sé

No sé, no sé
