SIM

• By: Klepht

Lyrics:

[Português]

[English]

Diz-me sim, mesmo sem quereres.

Tell me yes, even if you don't want to

A razão sei que há-de vir

I know the reason will come someday

Se me ouvires não interessa,

It doesn't matter if you hear me

que o meu som não seja o teu.

My sound isn't yours anyway

Pedes mais, e eu nem sei querer-te melhor do que quis.

You ask for more, and I can't even want you better than I already do

Diz-me sim ao que interessa

Say yes to what matters

vem-te acostumar a mim

Get used to me

se não for só nos resta

If not, all that's left for us is

ter de errar para saber perder

To make mistakes to learn how to lose

Pedes mais, e eu nem sei querer-te melhor, do que um sonho mais que nos falta cumprir.

You ask for more, and I can't even want you better than I do — more than a dream we haven't fulfilled yet

Diz-me sim mesmo sem veres

Say yes even without seeing

que isto possa acontecer

That this could really happen

Faz-me rir, dá-me prazer

Make me laugh, give me pleasure

dá o gosto de nos podermos ter

Let us feel the joy of being able to have each other

Pedes mais e eu nem sei querer-te melhor.

You ask for more, and I can't even want you better

...
