Pelo Amor de uma Mulher [English translation]

It was for the love of a woman

That I ended up not being able to understand myself

And I even got to the point of playing with my own life

And I let myself stay like this

Knowing that it was for me

An already lost loving cause.

It was for the love of a woman

That I made a dreamer out of myself

Having so much suffering in my life

Me, who always used to be a winner

Became, then, a loser

And I was left with the wounds.

It was a dream, she didn't want me anymore

I tried to show her that she didn't make me suffer

Today I live sadly, but I know that I'm going to change

Because I want to forget about her once and for all.

It was for the love of a woman

That I learned how to suffer

I put the joy aside

I started, then, to understand

The sad side of living

Trying to forget about what I wanted.

It was for the love of a woman

That I all of a sudden went insane

Loving who i wasn't supposed to

I was a slave to that love

And was blinded by the pain

Not caring about life.

It was a dream, she didn't want me anymore

I tried to show her that she didn't make me suffer

Today I live sadly, but I know that i'm going to change

Because I want to forget about her once and for all.

It was for the love of a woman

That I learned how to suffer

I put the joy aside

I started, then, to understand

The sad side of living

Trying to forget about what I wanted.

It was for the love of a woman

That I all of a sudden went insane

Loving who i wasn't supposed to

I was a slave to that love

And was blinded by the pain

Not caring about life.
