[English]

I didn't find in my history

Magic to give you

I thought you weren't

The one I wanted to love

A moonlight shines so much that blinds in my sea

Your air enters me, now I know it's you

You are the moon of my sea, of my eyes

Yes, it's you who I want to call

I'm here to tell you

You are mine, I want to have you

I'm here and I have to give you

Everything that's in me

I'm here, I want to scream

You're the body that makes me dream

And I have to give you

Everything that's in me

Everything that's in me

Everything that's in me

...

The place where I hide magic to give you

Without thinking, I give you the soul that hurt for you

I sail without knowing if I'll lose

It's for you that I give everything and much more

Everything that's in me

Everything that's in me

...

I'm here to tell you

You are mine and I want to have you

I'm here and I have to give you

Everything that's in me

Everything that's in me

Everything that's in me

...

Everything that's in me

...

[Portuguese]

Não encontrei na minha história

Magia para te dar

Achei que tu não eras

Quem eu queria amar

Um luar brilha tanto que cega no meu mar

O teu ar entra em mim, agora sei que és tu

És a lua do meu mar do meu olhar

Sim és tu por quem eu quero chamar

Estou aqui para te dizer

Tu és meu eu quero te ter

Estou aqui e tenho de te dar

Tudo o que há em mim

Estou aqui eu quero gritar

És o corpo que me faz sonhar

E eu tenho de te dar

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim

O lugar onde escondo magia p'ra te dar

Sem pensar dou-te a alma que feriu por ti

Eu navego sem saber se vou perder

É por ti que dou tudo e muito mais

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim

Estou aqui para te dizer

Tu és meu e quero te ter

Estou aqui e tenho que te dar

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim

Tudo o que há em mim
