A Paixão
Rui Veloso
The Passion
You were the one
That I wanted the most
To give me some comfort and company
It was only with you that I dreamed of walking
Everywhere and maybe
Even getting married
Oh, the things I went through
Just for loving you
The saliva I spent to change you
But your world was stronger than me
And not even with the power of music did it move
Even knowing you didn't like it
I pawned my ruby ring
To take you to the concert
That was at the Rivoli
And it was only you
That I wanted the most
By my side at the concert that day
Together in the dark, holding hands listening
To that crazy music always rising
But you didn't stay for even half an hour
You didn't make an effort to like it and you left
With you, I learned a great lesson
You don't love someone who doesn't hear the same song
Even knowing you didn't like it
I pawned my ruby ring
To take you to the concert
That was at the Rivoli
It was that day that I realized
There was nothing else for us to do
My passion for you was a flame
That had no more wood to burn
Even knowing you didn't like it
I pawned my ruby ring
To take you to the concert
That was at the Rivoli
