Full lyrics
Todo tempo quanto houver
Pra mim é pouco pra dançar com
Meu benzinho numa sala
De reboco
Enquanto o fole
Tá tocando, tá gemendo
Vou dançando e vou dizendo
Meu sofrer pra ela só e ninguém
Nota que eu estou lhe
Conversando
E nosso amor vai aumentando
Pra coisa mais melhor
Só fico triste quando o
Dia amanhece, ai, meu Deus,
Se eu pudesse acabar
A separação
Pra nós viver igualado a
Sangue-suga e nosso amor
Pede mais fuga do que essa
Que nos dão
Translation
All the time there is
For me it's not enough to dance with
My sweetheart in a room
Of plaster
While the bellows
Is playing, is moaning
I'm dancing and I'm saying
My suffering to her alone and no one
Notices that I am
Talking to her
And our love is increasing
For the best thing
I only get sad when the
Day dawns, oh, my God,
If I could end
The separation
For us to live like
A leech and our love
Asks for more escape than this
That they give us
