Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Meu Jeitinho by Amado Batista from Portuguese to English.
Eu sonhei um dia ser feliz
I dreamed of one day being happy
E você me aparece e diz
And you appear to me and say
Me ligue eu espero, é tudo que eu mais quero
Call me I wait, that's all I want most
Agora eu vou sonhar
Now I will dream
Eu fiquei, sonhando com o amor
I stayed, dreaming of love
De alguém, que diz se apaixonou
From someone who says they fell in love
Eu também sonhei com aquele alguém
I also dreamed of that someone
Bem juntinho à mim
Very close to me
Mas você só quis brincar comigo
But you just wanted to play with me
E o meu coração levou a sério
And my heart took it seriously
E isso no amor não faz sentido
And that in love doesn't make sense
Não pensei que fosse lero-lero
I didn't think it was a joke
O segundo capítulo, que você prometeu
The second chapter, which you promised
Espero até agora, mas não aconteceu
I waited until now, but it didn't happen
Espero que um dia, me ame como eu
I hope one day you love me like me
E vem ficar comigo
And come stay with me
Porque até hoje, eu só ouví promessas
Because until today, I only heard promises
Toca o telefone e ouço essas conversas
The phone rings and I hear these conversations
Que morre de saudade, que sente a minha falta
Who dies of longing, who misses me
Podia ser verdade
Could be true
Mas você só quis brincar comigo
But you just wanted to play with me
Did you know?
