Full lyrics

Amar é coisa boa

Só nunca foi pra mim

Ai, como amei à toa

Ai, como foi ruim

Se hoje vivo a esmo

Sem ter a quem clamar

Culpado sou eu mesmo

Por não saber amar

Translation

To love is a good thing

It just never was for me

Oh, how I loved in vain

Oh, how bad it was

If today I live aimlessly

Without having anyone to call out to

I myself am to blame

For not knowing how to love
