[English]

I gave too much, I wasn’t able

To take care of myself, and I loved like that

(Only the passion, out of control)

(Over before it began and it was the end)

I dove into the uncertainties of love

I was a crazy dreamer

(I was just dreaming)

(It’s only me in love)

The silence hurts too much

And the cold emptiness of the sheets

It hurts too much when the night

Invades our room and brings in the wind

My cry of love

The silence hurts too much

And the cold emptiness of the sheets

It hurts too much when the night

Invades our room and brings in the wind

My cry of love

I dove into the uncertainties of love

I was a crazy dreamer

(I was just dreaming)

(It’s only me in love)

The silence hurts too much

And the cold emptiness of the sheets

It hurts too much when the night

Invades our room and brings in the wind

My cry of love

The silence hurts too much

And the cold emptiness of the sheets

It hurts too much when the night

Invades our room and brings in the wind

My cry of love

I gave too much

[Portuguese]

Me dei demais, não fui capaz

De tomar conta de mim, e amei assim

(Only the passion, out of control)

(Over before it began and it was the end)

Mergulhei nas incertezas do amor

Fui um louco sonhador

(I was just dreaming)

(Is only me in love)

Dói demais o silêncio

E o vazio frio dos lençóis

Dói demais quando a noite

Invade o nosso quarto e traz no vento

O meu grito de amor

Dói demais o silêncio

E o vazio frio dos lençóis

Dói demais quando a noite

Invade o nosso quarto e traz no vento

O meu grito de amor

Mergulhei nas incertezas do amor

Fui um louco sonhador

(I was just dreaming)

(Is only me in love)

Dói demais o silêncio

E o vazio frio dos lençóis

Dói demais quando a noite

Invade o nosso quarto e traz no vento

O meu grito de amor

Dói demais o silêncio

E o vazio frio dos lençóis

Dói demais quando a noite

Invade o nosso quarto e traz no vento

O meu grito de amor

Me dei demais
