[English]
Can someone explain to me what I do
So I don't feel like this
I've already started to notice
The effect you have on me
My heart starts racing
Am I going crazy, do you want to tease me?
You look at me and I start laughing
When the best I can do is run away
So tell me what I do
To try to forget you
I don't even know what I like
So much, so much in you
Your smile or your way
Of trying to annoy me
If there's a way I'll try to avoid it
I swear I'll do anything so I don't fall in love
...
Are the signs I noticed
Really real?
Maybe I'm fooling myself
And you don't even care
Even so, I keep imagining
You and me, it seems to match
I'm the lyrics and you're the melody
I would sing with you every day
So tell me what I do
To try to forget you
I don't even know what I like
So much, so much in you
Your smile or your way
Of trying to annoy me
If there's a way I'll try to avoid it
I swear I'll do anything so I don't fall in love
...
I've already noticed that I have to be careful
Because you're the right kind of wrong guy
It's just you showing up
For me to lose my speech and the confusion to happen
So tell me what I do
To try to forget you
And tell me why I like
You so much, so much
Was it your smile or your way
Of trying to annoy me
If there's a way I'll try to avoid it
I swear I'll do anything
I swear I'll do anything
I swear I'll do anything
So I don't fall in love
...

Key Grammar Structures

  • Alguém pode me explicar o que eu faço Pra não me sentir assim

    ➔ Subjunctive Mood (Para + infinitive)

    ➔ The phrase "Para não me sentir assim" uses "para" + infinitive to express purpose or intention. Here, it signifies the reason "I"'m asking for an explanation is "in order not to feel this way."

  • Será que eu tô pirando você quer me provocar?

    ➔ Interrogative Sentence with an implied question about reality/possibility.

    "Será que eu tô pirando" implies "Am I going crazy?". It is a question the speaker asks themself. "Você quer me provocar" is a direct question about the other person's intention. The combination raises doubts about whether the speaker's perception is accurate.

  • Quando o melhor que eu faço é fugir

    ➔ Superlative Relative Clause with "o melhor que"

    "o melhor que eu faço" means "the best thing I do". The relative clause "que eu faço" modifies the superlative "o melhor".

  • Se tiver uma maneira vou tentar evitar

    ➔ Conditional Clause (Future Subjunctive + Future)

    "Se tiver uma maneira" (if there is a way) is a conditional clause in the future subjunctive. "Vou tentar evitar" (I will try to avoid) is the main clause in the future tense. It expresses a hypothetical situation and its likely consequence.

  • Eu juro eu faço tudo para eu não me apaixonar

    ➔ Repetition for emphasis, Subjunctive Mood (Para + infinitive)

    ➔ The repetition of "Eu juro eu faço tudo" emphasizes the speaker's determination. The phrase "para eu não me apaixonar" uses "para" + infinitive to express purpose. Here, it signifies the reason for doing everything is "in order not to fall in love".

  • Será que são mesmo reais Os sinais que eu percebi?

    ➔ Inverted Question Structure with Emphasis (São mesmo reais). Relative Clause (Os sinais que eu percebi)

    "São mesmo reais" is inverted for emphasis, conveying doubt about the reality of the signs. "Os sinais que eu percebi" (the signs that I perceived) is a relative clause modifying "sinais".

  • Talvez eu esteja me iludindo E você não esteja nem ai

    ➔ Adverb of Doubt (Talvez) + Present Continuous (esteja me iludindo). Negative Expression (Não esteja nem ai)

    "Talvez eu esteja me iludindo" (Perhaps I am deluding myself) uses "talvez" to express doubt, and the present continuous to indicate an ongoing action. "E você não esteja nem ai" (And you don't even care) is a negative expression indicating the other person's indifference.

  • Eu sou a letra e você a melodia

    ➔ Metaphorical Comparison with Definite Articles.

    ➔ Using definite articles "a" before "letra" and "melodia" suggests that the speaker and the other person are the *specific* lyrics and melody needed for a song to exist, implying a unique and complementary relationship.
