Por Motivo de Fuerza Mayor
Roberto Carlos
Due to Force Majeure
So I arrived alone
And wanted to see our house
I disguised the general mess
The poorly painted wall
Some hidden flowers
Dusty steps
The forgotten veranda
In the middle of the room a rug
At the end of the hallway the door
Of our room that kept
Old phrases and insecure attitudes
Mistakes made
Our bewildered gestures
Your cares and secrets
After so much time
I find you hiding
Behind repeated phrases to justify
Your decision to separate our lives
That's why I accepted your reason for change
You became a lady only out of respect
And in writing it is said by not said
And those complaints I respect
But I don't accept the argument
That now you regret
And due to force majeure I'm leaving
Who lives what I live
Must know
That sometimes you win
Who knows how to lose
Who lives what I live
Must know
That sometimes you win
Who knows how to lose
