NAME:

Literature - Figures of Language and Classicism

I Know By Cor- Marília Mendonça

É

It's getting boring, right?

The pain in the ass, as it is

Prepare, I'm already preparing

While you're going, I'm coming back

And all this way I know it by heart

If I'm not mistaken, now you'll leave me alone

The second step is not to answer me

The third is to regret

If what hurts me hurt you.

He leaves!

It's not even important anymore

Leave us for another time

Will try to open the door of this love

When I've thrown away the key

He leaves!

It's not even important anymore

Leave us for another time

And when you realize it, it's gone

When I look back, I'm gone

And all this way, I know it by heart

If I'm not mistaken, now you'll leave me alone

The second step is not to answer me

The third is to regret

If what hurts me hurt you

He leaves!

Leave us for another time

Will try to open the door of this love

When I've thrown away the key

He leaves!

It's not even important anymore

Leave us for another time

And when you realize it, it's gone

When I look back, I'm gone
