Recomeçar

• Por: Fernando Daniel

Letra:

[Português]

[English]

Nem sempre o que fizeste foi o melhor

Not everything you did was the best

Dei-te tudo o que querias e tive o teu pior

I gave you everything you wanted and got your worst in return

Agora não tens ninguém dás por ti a pensar

Now you have no one, you find yourself thinking

Naquilo que eu pedia e que nunca soubeste dar

About what I asked for that you never knew how to give

...

...

E será que algum dia

And do you think that someday

Eu vou ser capaz

I'll be able

De me esquecer de tudo

To forget everything

De me esquecer de nós

To forget us

Mas sei que um dia

But I know that one day

Vou ter de seguir

I'll have to move on

Para começar outra vez

To start all over again

Quero começar outra vez

I want to start again

Quero começar outra vez

I want to start again

Oh, oh, yeah

Oh, oh, yeah

Recomeçar

Restart

...

...

Levei algum tempo

It took me some time

Mas agora estou bem

But now I'm okay

Espero que consigas

I hope you can

Encontrar alguém

Find someone

Mas nunca irei esquecer

But I'll never forget

Que não soubeste ver

That you didn't see

Porque quem tu procuravas

Because the person you were looking for

Era quem tu não sabias ter, oh-oh-oh, oh

Was someone you didn't know how to have, oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

E será que algum dia

And do you think that someday

Eu vou ser capaz

I'll be able

De me esquecer de tudo

To forget everything

De me esquecer de nós

To forget us

Mas sei que um dia

But I know that one day

Vou ter de seguir

I'll have to move on

Para começar outra vez

To start all over again

Quero começar outra vez

I want to start again

Quero começar outra vez

I want to start again

Oh, oh, yeah

Oh, oh, yeah

Recomeçar

Restart

Quero começar outra vez

I want to start again

Recomeçar

Restart
