Outra Vez
Oswaldo Montenegro
Again
You were the greatest of my cases
Of all the hugs, the one I never forgot
You were, of the loves I had
The most complicated and the simplest for me
You were the best of my mistakes
And the strangest story anyone has ever written
And it is for these and other reasons
That my longing makes me remember everything again
You were the honest lie
Most serious joke that ever happened to me
You were the oldest case
The friendliest love that ever appeared to me
Of the memories that I bring in life
You are the longing I like to have
Only then do I feel you close to me
Again
I forgot to try to forget you
I decided to want you just for the sake of it
I decided to remind you so many times
I have the will with nothing to lose
You were all happiness
You were the evil that only did me good
You were the best of my plans
And the biggest mistake I could make
Of the memories I carry in life
You are the longing I like to have
Only then do I feel you close to me
Again
