Full lyrics
Faz tanto tempo que eu não te vejo
Daria tudo pra te ver agora
Ia matar essa saudade doida
Que me atormenta pela vida a fora
Ia falar que nessa sua ausência
Eu enganei a vida pra viver
Ia botar o nosso amor em dia
E nesse amor eu ia me perder
(Ia botar o nosso amor em dia)
(E nesse amor eu ia me perder)
Ia balançar a rede
A rede, pra lá e pra cá
A gente se embolando dentro
No chamego de lascar
E em cada balanço
Que a rede velha ia dar
Eu matava essa saudade
Pra ela não me matar
(Eu matava essa saudade)
(Pra ela não me matar)
Faz tanto tempo que eu não te vejo
Daria tudo pra te ver agora
Ia matar essa saudade doida
Que me atormenta pela vida a fora
Ia falar que nessa sua ausência
Eu enganei a vida pra viver
Ia botar o nosso amor em dia
E nesse amor eu ia me perder
(Ia botar o nosso amor em dia)
(E nesse amor eu ia me perder)
Ia balançar a rede
A rede, pra lá e pra cá
A gente se embolando dentro
No chamego de lascar
E em cada balanço
Que a rede velha ia dar
Eu matava essa saudade
Pra ela não me matar
(Eu matava essa saudade)
(Pra ela não me matar)
Oh, rede gostosa!
Balança
Vamos balançando
Balança a rede no forró!
Translation
It's been so long since I've seen you
I'd give anything to see you now
I would kill this crazy longing
That torments me throughout life
I would say that in your absence
I deceived life to live
I would catch up on our love
And in this love I would lose myself
(I would catch up on our love)
(And in this love I would lose myself)
I would swing the hammock
The hammock, back and forth
Us getting tangled inside
In a cuddle to die for
And in every swing
That the old hammock would give
I would kill this longing
So it wouldn't kill me
(I would kill this longing)
(So it wouldn't kill me)
It's been so long since I've seen you
I'd give anything to see you now
I would kill this crazy longing
That torments me throughout life
I would say that in your absence
I deceived life to live
I would catch up on our love
And in this love I would lose myself
(I would catch up on our love)
(And in this love I would lose myself)
I would swing the hammock
The hammock, back and forth
Us getting tangled inside
In a cuddle to die for
And in every swing
That the old hammock would give
I would kill this longing
So it wouldn't kill me
(I would kill this longing)
(So it wouldn't kill me)
Oh, delightful hammock!
Swing
Let's keep swinging
Swing the hammock in the forró!
