Lyrics & Translation

[Portuguese]

[English]

Eu sei que eu tô estranha

I know I'm acting strange

Já uns dias sem falar

It's been a few days without talking

Pego o carro no silêncio

I take the car in silence

Só pra não me complicar

Just to avoid complicated feelings

Ninguém fez nada de errado, não, não

No one did anything wrong, no, no

Sendo bom fica pior

Being good just makes it worse

Um discurso entalado

A stuck speech

Você merece melhor

You deserve better

Não me entenda mal, não, não

Don’t take this the wrong way, no, no

Tenta não levar isso na pessoal

Try not to take it personally

E pode ser clichê (yeah, yeah)

And it might sound cliché (yeah, yeah)

Mas tudo que eu queria era te querer

But all I want is to want you

Porque eu até te amo

Because I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

Eu até te amo

I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

Para-para-papa-rara

Stop, stop, girl

Para-para-papa

Stop, stop, girl

Eu até te amo

I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

Eu tô com a tua camisa que virou minha preferida

I'm wearing your shirt, the one that’s my favorite

Aproveito e já aviso: eu não vou devolver

Just so you know, I’m not giving it back

Tá na casa da minha amiga, sabe, aquela de listra

It's at my friend's house, you know, that striped one

Daquela banda antiga que eu te mostrei

The band I showed you long ago

E eu não vou te machucar, não tem outro na minha mira

And I won’t hurt you, I’ve got no other girl in my sights

Mas se solta essa menina, cê tem que entender

But if you let go, girl, you have to understand

No momento da minha vida, seria bem egoísta

Right now in my life, it’s pretty selfish

Eu te prender na pista mesmo sem querer

I’d keep you on the dance floor even if I didn’t want to

E o foda é que eu te amo

And the point is, I love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

Eu até te amo

I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

Para-para-papa-rara

Stop, stop, girl

Para-para-papa

Stop, stop, girl

Eu até te amo

I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more

(Para-pa-parara)

(Stop, girl)

(Para-para-papa), é que eu me amo mais

(Stop, girl), because I love myself more

(Para-pa-parara)

(Stop, girl)

(Para-para-papa), desculpa, é que eu me amo mais

(Stop, girl), sorry, I love myself more

(Para-pa-parara)

(Stop, girl)

(Para-para-papa)

(Stop, girl)

Eu até te amo

I do love you

Mas eu me amo mais, eu me amo mais

But I love myself more, I love myself more
