Lyrics

Tinhas o corpo cansado
E a cidade era tão fria
Ninguém dormia a teu lado
Ninguém sabia que amado
O teu corpo se acendia
Andavas devagarinho
Pelas ruas de Lisboa
Em busca de algum carinho
Que te fosse pão e vinho
E te desse noite boa
Eras triste se sorrias
E mais nova se choravas
As palavras que dizias
Tinham dores e alegrias
E só ternura deixavas
Por ti não houve ninguém
Para quem te desses nua
Podias ter sido mãe
Podias ter sido mãe
E foste esquina de rua

Lyrics translation

Your body was tired.
And the city was so cold
No one slept next to you
No one knew that loved
Your body would light up
You were slow
Through the streets of Lisbon
In search of some affection
Let it be bread and wine
And give you a good night
You were sad if you smiled
And younger if you cried
The words you said
They had pains and joys
And only tenderness left
For you there was no one
Who gave you naked
You could have been a mother.
You could have been a mother.
And you were a street corner
