Depois de Te Perder

After Losing You

Depois de Te Perder

I saw you crying and pretended I didn't see itEu vi você chorando e fingi que não vi
I thought giving you space was the right thing to do for youAchei que dar espaço fosse o certo pra ti
But space turned into distance, and distance turned into the endMas o espaço virou distância, a distância virou o fim
And only now do I understand the harm I did that wayE só agora eu entendo o mal que fiz assim

If I could go back to the day you criedSe eu pudesse voltar no dia em que você chorou
Perhaps you could have seen how much it hurt youTalvez tivesse visto o quanto aquilo te doeu

I wish I had seen it sooner, before it was too lateQueria ter visto antes, antes de ser tarde assim
I wish I had stopped to listen to what was growing inside meQueria ter parado pra escutar o que crescia em mim
I'm sorry it took me so long to understandPerdão por ter demorado tanto pra entender
I'm sorry for only learning this after losing youPerdão por só aprender depois de te perder

Today I'm reflecting on every detail I missedHoje eu paro em cada detalhe que deixei passar
Every everything's fine that I chose not to questionCada tá tudo bem que eu preferi não questionar

I saw what I pretended not to see, and that holds me captiveEu vi o que fingi não ver, e isso me faz refém
Maybe there's still time to tell you what I've been hiding from you tooTalvez ainda dê tempo de dizer o que eu escondi de você também
It's not about apologizing, it's about admitting who I wasNão é sobre desculpa, é sobre admitir o que eu fui
Someone who only knew how to listen to you after you were no longer hereAlguém que só soube te ouvir depois que você já não estava mais aqui

I wish I had seen it sooner, before it was too lateQueria ter visto antes, antes de ser tarde assim
I wish I had stopped to listen to what was growing inside meQueria ter parado pra escutar o que crescia em mim
I'm sorry it took me so long to understandPerdão por ter demorado tanto pra entender
I'm sorry for only learning this after losing youPerdão por só aprender depois de te perder

I wish I had seen it soonerQueria ter visto antes
Forgive me, I know it took me a while to understandMe perdoa, eu sei que demorei a entender
Know that, even though it was late in my life, I learned to see your worthSaiba que, mesmo tarde, eu aprendi a enxergar o teu valor
