Full lyrics
Quem passa a vida represando sentimentos
Se depara no momento que decidir não dá
O tempo passa e vai levando a juventude
O tempo cruel e não ilude não da nem pra disfarçar
Menina não fique a toa,
Vem fazer a nossa historia
Prefiro ser lembrança boa
Do que remédio pra memória
Mais se você resolver mudar
Vai ver que o amor não deve adiar
Esse amor deve ser vivido
Não deve ficar reprimido
Ao Deus dará
Pois nosso amor é fato consumado
Aquele nó arrochado
Não da mais pra desatar
Translation
Who spends life repressing feelings
Finds themselves at the moment they decide it's not possible
Time passes and takes youth away
Time is cruel and doesn't deceive, there's no way to disguise it
Girl, don't just stand around,
Come make our story
I prefer to be a good memory
Than a remedy for memory
But if you decide to change
You'll see that love shouldn't be postponed
This love must be lived
It shouldn't remain repressed
To God's will
Because our love is a fait accompli
That tight knot
Can no longer be untied
