Must Have Been by Grace

Ana Sofia Varela

Deve Ter Sido Por Graça

Piscaste o olho e sorri
Deve ter sido por graça
Virei a cara e fingi
Que só estava a a ver quem passa
E só reparei em ti
Porque dançavas com raça
Piscaste o olho e sorri
Deve ter sido por graça

Pus um xaile adamascado
Para ver passar Alfama
E se vinhas destacado
É porque andavas em fama
Com o teu olhar de fado
Quando olha já chama
Pus um xaile adamascado
Para ver passar Alfama

Deste-me o braço ao passar
Deve ter sido por graça
E levaste-me a marcha
Do Marquês até á Praça
Santo António no altar
Dá o nome a quem enlaça
Deste-me o braço ao passar
Deve ter sido por graça

Must Have Been by Grace

You winked and smiled
Must have been by grace
I turned my head and pretended
I was just watching the crowd
I only noticed you
Because you danced with style
You winked and smiled
Must have been by grace

I put on a patterned shawl
To watch Alfama go by
And if you stood out
It's 'cause you were in the spotlight
With your soulful gaze
When you look, it ignites
I put on a patterned shawl
To watch Alfama go by

You took my arm as you passed
Must have been by grace
And you led me on the walk
From Marquês to the square
Saint Anthony at the altar
Blesses those who entwine
You took my arm as you passed
Must have been by grace
