Tempestade [English translation]

The storm frightens me up

Just like your absence does

You, a thunder disguised as a human

Fell upon

My head

And since then

This thunder

Screams

Within my chest

The storm outside

Keeps on falling

It floods my bedroom

And that overflows over my bed

Now I'm able to understand it

Now I have

Different dreams

While I can't sleep

While waiting for you

And it is raining on the world

I can't get used to

The lack of Brazilian notion

And this shade of despair

That reached our love

I think of the man who sleeps

On the waters of the river

And that now fluctuates in the rivers of life

And the shacks

On the edge of the chasm

Slipping in cynicism

Of Vieira Souto 1

Now I have different dreams

While I can't sleep...

Through the tunnels

In the bottom of the pit

Nobody is immune to that

Growing up in the sewers

And our love

Without any risks and glory

Relies on the history

Of my land of disgust

Now I have different dreams

While I can't sleep...

1. I don't get what this sentence means in the original Portuguese lyrics. 'Vieira Souto' is an avenue in Rio de Janeiro
