Setembro
B Fachada Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vim dar um passeio para o sul do país
Deixei-te em Lisboa, mas não porque quis
Saber que te soa esta valsa que eu fiz
Há-de ser coisa boa, sou eu quem to diz
Mandei vir o saber de Paris

Escrevi-te uma carta de coisas de amar
Se não for entregue, não me vou desculpar
Porque o dom que consegue esta valsa a soar
Não és tu quem mo negue, não, nem quando eu voltar
Quando abrires os teus braços, nada disto já vai importar

E quando o sonho saciar vou fazer de tudo para acordar

Às vezes eu sinto uns fantasmas por perto
Ao entardecer e com o meu rulfo aberto
Faço para te prender esta valsa que é certo
Mais que para te vencer, é para ver se desperto

Lembras-me em todas as coisas de cá
E a cada passo eu me passo para lá
Mas então o que eu faço é valsar isto em fá





Para te ter num abraço que Vênus não dá
Quando o verão acabar e nós dois for só tudo o que há

I want to know how this waltz that I made sounds to you


Há-de ser coisa boa, sou eu quem to diz
It will be a good thing, I am the one who tells you that


Mandei vir o saber de Paris
I ordered the knowledge from Paris


Escrevi-te uma carta de coisas de amar
I wrote you a letter about things to love


Se não for entregue, não me vou desculpar
If it's not delivered, I won't apologize


Porque o dom que consegue esta valsa a soar
Because the gift that makes this waltz sound


Não és tu quem mo negue, não, nem quando eu voltar
You can't deny it to me, not even when I come back


Quando abrires os teus braços, nada disto já vai importar
When you open your arms, none of this will matter anymore


E quando o sonho saciar vou fazer de tudo para acordar

Sometimes I feel some ghosts around me


Ao entardecer e com o meu rulfo aberto
At dusk and with my accordion open


Faço para te prender esta valsa que é certo
I play to capture this waltz that is certain


Mais que para te vencer, é para ver se desperto
More than to defeat you, it's to see if I wake up


Lembras-me em todas as coisas de cá
You remind me of everything here


E a cada passo eu me passo para lá
And at each step, I go there


Mas então o que eu faço é valsar isto em fá
But then what I do is waltz this in F


Para te ter num abraço que Vênus não dá
To have you in a hug that Venus cannot give


Quando o verão acabar e nós dois for só tudo o que há
When the summer ends, and we are all that there is
