Retalhos de Cetim

Satin Scraps

Retalhos de Cetim

I rehearsed my samba all yearEnsaiei meu samba o ano inteiro
Bought a surdo and tamborimComprei surdo e tamborim
Spent everything on costumesGastei tudo em fantasia
It was all I wantedEra só o que eu queria
And she swore to parade for meE ela jurou desfilar pra mim

My school was so beautifulMinha escola estava tão bonita
It was everything I wanted to seeEra tudo o que eu queria ver
In satin scrapsEm retalhos de cetim
I slept the whole yearEu dormi o ano inteiro
And she swore to parade for meE ela jurou desfilar pra mim

But carnival arrivedMas chegou o carnaval
And she didn't paradeE ela não desfilou
I cried on the avenue, I criedEu chorei na avenida, eu chorei
I didn't think the cabrocha, whom I loved so much, was lyingNão pensei que mentia a cabrocha, que eu tanto amei
