Doidice Lyrics in English Djavan

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Doidice by Djavan from Portuguese to English.
It's natural
A windstorm sweeps here, more madness there
Or a drought that devastated
Worse is not seeing you now
Vices surface
Verse 1
Clear mornings
Or anything else I may have
Nothing means anything if your kiss isn't mine
Heat coming, warmth exploding
Fears hover in the air and I'm thinking of you
Did I fall in love?
Maybe, could be
Did I go crazy?
I don't know, never saw it
I need to leave
After I found out there's you
I never existed again
Verse 2
It's natural
A windstorm sweeps here, more madness there
Or a drought that devastated
Worse is not seeing you now
Vices surface
Clear mornings
Or anything else I may have
Nothing means anything
If your kiss isn't mine
Heat coming, warmth exploding
Fears hover in the air and I'm thinking of you
Did I fall in love?
Maybe, could be
Did I go crazy?
I don't know, never saw it
I need to leave
After I found out there's you
I never existed again
The more you forget me, the more I love you
Stars
I feel love, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
The more you forget me, the more I love you
Stars
I feel love, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

SONG MEANING

“Doidice” is Djavan’s playful confession that falling head-over-heels can feel as intense as the wildest forces of nature. He compares his passion to vendavais (whirlwinds) and secas (droughts), showing that even storms or parched earth are easier to bear than being away from the one he craves. Every sun-lit morning, every possible pleasure, loses all meaning if he cannot claim a single kiss. The song moves like a fever: instinct (cio) rises, heat explodes, doubts circle the air, and the singer stumbles between wondering “Am I in love?” and fearing “Have I gone crazy?”—only to admit that once he discovered this person, his old self “never existed again.”

A surprise bilingual refrain (“Cuándo más me olvidas, te amo más”) widens the horizon, hinting that this longing is universal and cosmic—estrellas (stars) witness a love that actually grows when it is forgotten. “Doidice” is therefore a whirlwind samba-soul track about desire so consuming that it redefines reality, turns absence into catastrophe, and proves that sometimes the heart’s most chaotic moments are perfectly natural.
