I'm drinking what I never drank
I'm going to say what I never said
It's the first and last time
I settled down, yesterday was the farewell
To the party, to this single life
I settled down, I changed my route and my plans
What I was looking for, I found in you
If you want to go to the movies, I'm the perfect match
Want to enjoy the club, you already have your partner
Or stay at home loving all day long
Share your brigadeiro with me
And in this life now we are two, three, four
As many as you want
From today on
I am a one-woman man
I settled down, yesterday was the farewell
To the party, to this single life
I settled down, I changed my route and my plans
What I was looking for, I found in you
If you want to go to the movies, I'm the perfect match
Want to enjoy the club, you already have your partner
Or stay at home loving all day long
Share your brigadeiro with me
And in this life now we are two, three, four
As many as you want
From today on
I am a one-woman man
If you want to go to the movies, I'm the perfect match
Want to enjoy the club, you already have your partner (I'll go with you)
Or stay at home loving all day long
Share your brigadeiro with me
In this life now we are two, three, four
As many as you want
From today on
I am a one-woman man
I settled down, I settled down
I settled down
Settled down
Thank you, thank you very much
