Lyrics

Andavas tão sossegada
Longe dos sobressaltos
Nessa paz desinfectada
Tão sem baixos nem altos
E eu cheguei como um bandido
Que abafa os seus próprios passos
Sem ver o teu olhar ferido
Por marcas de outros fracassos
Accionaste o teu alarme
Trancaste as tuas janelas
Mas eu já tinha feito o cerco
E anulado as sentinelas
Depois quis armar a tenda
No fundo do teu jardim
Inflamar a tua paz
Com o lume dum motim
Mas tu tinhas decidido
Que não ias gostar de mim
Porque tinhas prometido
Não cair noutra assim
Treinaste o teu coração
Não há ninguém que o aqueça
Mal vês perigo de paixão
Ligas directo à cabeça
Eu já tinha vindo embora
Já ia a dobrar a esquina
Tu vieste chamar-me à porta
Numa fúria repentina
E pensar no que perdíamos
Já nem falo já nem penso
Felizmente que tiveste
Uma réstia de bom senso

Lyrics translation

You were so quiet
Away from the shocks
In this disinfected peace
So without lows or highs
And I came as a bandit
That stifles their own footsteps
Without seeing your wounded look
By Marks of other failures
You triggered your alarm.
You locked your Windows
But I had already made the siege
And canceled the sentries
Then I wanted to set up the tent
In the back of your garden
Ignite your peace
With the light of a riot
But you had decided
That you wouldn't like me
Because you had promised
Don't fall for another one like that
You trained your heart
There is no one to warm him
You hardly see danger of passion
Garters straight to the head
I had already come away
I was about to turn the corner.
You came to call me at the door
In a sudden rage
And think about what we lost
I don't even talk anymore.
Luckily you had
A restia of common sense
