Porta Aberta Lyrics in English Luka

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Porta Aberta by Luka from Portuguese to English.
Days pass slowly
The night tells me you won't come back
The furniture shifts out of place
I run around the world and can't catch up to you
Without you my radio goes mute, my TV loses color
My guitar falls silent
Without you my body no longer reflects in the mirror
My house falls
Without you I lose the ground beneath me
So accept me as I am
Don't ask me to change
These quirks you've already forgiven
I'm getting on with life
I'm trying to fake it
But I'll leave my bedroom door open
In case you want to come back
In case you want to come back
Days pass slowly
The night tells me you won't come back
The furniture shifts out of place
I run around the world and can't catch up to you
Without you my radio goes mute, my TV loses color
My guitar falls silent
Without you my body no longer reflects in the mirror
My house falls
Without you I lose the ground beneath me
So accept me as I am
Don't ask me to change
These quirks you've already forgiven
I'm getting on with life
I'm trying to fake it
But I'll leave my bedroom door open
In case you want to come back
In case you want to come back
In case you want to come back
In case you want to come back
In case you want to come back

SONG MEANING

Porta Aberta ("Open Door") is Luka’s bittersweet confession of life after a breakup, where everything feels out of tune. She lists the little catastrophes that follow her partner’s absence: the radio goes silent, the TV loses its color, the guitar has no song, and even the mirror refuses to show her reflection. Days drag, nights insist the loved one will not return, and she imagines racing around the world without ever catching up. All that emptiness is wrapped in a single plea: "Accept me as I am; don’t ask me to change."

Still, hope refuses to quit. While she pretends to manage and masks her pain, Luka keeps one gesture of faith alive—she leaves the bedroom door open, just in case that lost love decides to walk back in. The song gently reminds us that real affection accepts our quirks and that sometimes the bravest thing we can do is leave a door unlocked for the future.
