Bem Que Se Quis [English translation]

We actually wanted

To be happy

After everything

But now there aren’t

Any way of coming back

And what has life done

With our lives?

What, what don’t we do

When we’re in love?

But it doesn’t matter!

I forgot

To get over you

Because

Your desire

Is my greatest pleasure

And my destiny

Is to always want more and more

My road goes straight

To your sea…

Now you can come, come closer to me

Come fast, endlessly

Inside me

Because I want to feel

The weight of your body

Over mine

Come, darling, come to me

Hug me slowly

Kiss me and then make me forget
