Quando a Saudade Aperta

Trying to clear my head
I threw everything up in the air and left
The longing for you was in everything
Feeling the weight of it all, I ran away

I went to the countryside with nature
Seeking energy to not die of love
But there were also your memories there
That only made my pain grow

I understood that when passion tightens the grip
No one can hide from longing
I took a vacation to try to forget you
But I came back with even more longing for you

I rode again on my black horse
But I didn't see you on your white horse
Even the moon was surprised when it arrived
To see me alone there, suffering so much

Dawn caught me on the balcony
Where thinking of you, I fell asleep
My eyes didn't even look at the stars
Because my star wasn't there

I understood that when passion tightens the grip
No one can hide from longing
I took a vacation to try to forget you
But I came back with even more longing for you
