Blusa Vermelha
Chico Rey e Paraná
Red Blouse
When I look at the wall and see your picture
Tears wash over my face in an endless cry
I sit on the bed, all alone in this room
The damn longing comes and takes hold of me
I get up, go to the closet and open the doors
And I see the red blouse that you left behind
Oh, then despair steals my calm
I step out into the street and even my soul
Cries in silence as it feels my pain
God, oh Almighty Lord, I make a request
Send relief to this heart that suffers
If she ever comes back, I’ll be grateful
But to suffer like I do, I’d prefer a thousand times
For you to send me death
I get up, go to the closet and open the doors
And I see the red blouse that you left behind
Oh, then despair steals my calm
I step out into the street and even my soul
Cries in silence as it feels my pain
God, oh Almighty Lord, I make a request
Send relief to this heart that suffers
If she ever comes back, I’ll be grateful
But to suffer like I do, I’d prefer a thousand times
For you to send me death
