[English] Baby, let's recall that past love of ours
Honey, I know we ended things
But today, that pesky feeling of longing
Hit me hard, knocked me down (knocked me down)
For the love of my life, it didn’t work out
But for love in bed, we’re a hit
Let me tell you what I want
We come back without really leaving
Just to relive the memories
And it’s just a little bit of longing
And it’s only (a little bit of longing)
We come back without really leaving
Just to relive the memories
And it’s only (a little bit of longing)
And it’s just a little bit of longing
With you, this is the boss, hey, Xand! (I’m here)
I’ve arrived at Menos é Mais pagode, go! Go! Come!)
Honey, I know we ended things
But today, that pesky feeling of longing
Hit me hard, knocked me down (knocked me down)
See, for the love of my life, it didn’t work out
But for love in bed, we’re a hit
Let me tell you what I want
We come back without really leaving
Just to relive the memories
And it’s only a little bit of longing
It’s only (a little bit of longing)
Where do we (go back without really leaving)
Just to relive (the memories), only
And it’s only a little bit of longing
It’s just, just a little bit of longing (a little bit of longing)
It’s to die for!
That naughty longing, my buddy (wow!)
(Menos É Mais, boy!) Come on!
We come back without really leaving
Just to relive the memories
I told you it’s just a little bit of longing
Little bit of longing (longing)
Longing, longing, how I miss you
We come back without really leaving
Just to relive the memories
But it’s only a little bit of longing
And it’s only a little bit of longing
Big one! (And that’s all, baby!)
Just a little bit of longing!
And it’s only a little bit of longing
(And it’s only a little bit of longing) oh Xand!
Tell us, are you the boss (of longing)
(You’re the pilot) I’m the pilot, baby
Deal!
It’s just a little bit of longing! (That’s Menos É Mais!)
Thanks, everyone!
