Two Steps Forward, Two Steps Back

Elis Regina

Dois Pra Lá, Dois Pra Cá

Sentindo frio em minh'alma
Te convidei pra dançar
A tua voz me acalmava
São dois pra lá, dois pra cá

Meu coração traiçoeiro
Batia mais que o bongô
Tremia mais que as maracas
Descompassado de amor

Minha cabeça rodando
Rodava mais que os casais
O teu perfume gardênia
E não me pergunte mais

A tua mão no pescoço
As tuas costas macias
Por quanto tempo rondaram
As minhas noites vazias

No dedo um falso brilhante
Brincos iguais ao colar
E a ponta de um torturante
Band-aid no calcanhar

Eu hoje me embriagando
De whisky com guaraná
Ouvi tua voz murmurando
São dois pra lá, dois pra cá

A tua mão no pescoço
As tuas costas macias
Por quanto tempo rondaram
As minhas noites vazias

No dedo um falso brilhante
Brincos iguais ao colar
E a ponta de um torturante
Band-aid no calcanhar

Eu hoje me embriagando
De whisky com guaraná
Ouvi tua voz murmurando
São dois pra lá, dois pra cá

Dejaste abandonada la ilusión
Que había en mi corazón por ti

Dejaste abandonada la ilusión
Que había en mi corazón por ti

Dejaste abandonada la ilusión
Que había en mi corazón por ti

Two Steps Forward, Two Steps Back

Feeling cold in my soul
I invited you to dance
Your voice calmed me down
There are two there, two here

My treacherous heart
It beat more than the bongo
It shook more than the maracas
Out of step with love

My head is spinning
It was more than the couples
Your gardenia perfume
And don't ask me anymore

Your hand on your neck
Your soft back
How long did they prowl
My empty nights

On the finger a fake diamond
Earrings same as the necklace
And the tip of a torturer
Band-aid on the heel

I'm getting drunk today
Whiskey with guarana
I heard your voice murmuring
There are two there, two here

Your hand on your neck
Your soft back
How long did they prowl
My empty nights

On the finger a fake diamond
Earrings same as the necklace
And the tip of a torturer
Band-aid on the heel

I'm getting drunk today
Whiskey with guarana
I heard your voice murmuring
There are two there, two here

You let the illusion go
What was in my heart for you

You let the illusion go
What was in my heart for you

You let the illusion go
What was in my heart for you
