ACONTECE by Cartola, new words by Joel Sattler

 

New title: “It Happens” 

 

Just try forgetting love and what happens?

You’ll find that your whole world will

start collapsing

 

When her love for me came to end, I died

Why should I even try just to now lose her again?

But still it could happen

 

So somehow it turned out that my heart, it was empty

Because I let a girl disorient me

If I could just try to once more to pretend

But it’s just no good now

If I could not I would not and should not

Have ever let it happen

 

____________________________ 

 

Original lyrics in Portuguese: 

 

Esquece o nosso amor, vê se esquece.

Porque tudo no mundo acontece

 

E acontece que eu já não sei mais amar.

Vai chorar, vai sofrer, e você não merece,

Mas isso acontece.

 

Acontece que o meu coração ficou frio

E o nosso ninho de amor está vazio.

 

Se eu ainda pudesse fingir que te amo,

Ah, se eu pudesse

Mas não quero, não devo fazê-lo,

Isso não acontece.
