Oh, if I could justJust make your heart understandThe way I feel when you're holding my handMy world is safe and it's worth living forEven more with youI've learned to treasure each moment of timeYou even taught me how high love can climbThe very thought of your kiss and I sawEven moreMy heart is bursting to sayEven moreYou are mineSmiling skyYou are the sun and the rainMy blossoming snow and soulCan you imagine if you went away?If I should lose you for one precious dayI'd be so sadI'd be so sadI will say that I criedTill the day that you came back to meMy loveThis is Marcos ValleI wrote this song in 1965 with my brother Paulo Sérgio ValleThe original Portuguese lyric was a little differentfrom the English version I sang just nowEither one tells the story of a romantic love affair thoughSo this is how the original Portuguese lyric goesAh, I wish I could make you understandWithout your love I cannot liveWithout us being together I am left aloneI feel so lonelyAnd I need to learn to sleep aloneWithout feeling your loveAnd to realize that it was just a past dreamAh, too much loveMakes the peace surrender when it endsWithout knowing that the longing remains for itselfIt's so sadMy eyes cry over the absence of yoursThose eyes cry over the absence of yoursThose eyes that were so familiarFor God please understandThat I cannot liveWith myself thinking about our love
