Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Depois by Marisa Monte from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Depois de sonhar tantos anos
After dreaming for so many years
De fazer tantos planos
of making so many plans
De um futuro pra nós
Of a future for us
Depois de tantos desenganos
After so many disappointments
Nós nos abandonamos como tantos casais
We abandoned each other like so many couples
Quero que você seja feliz
I want you to be happy
Hei de ser feliz também
I will be happy too
Depois de varar madrugada
After waking up at dawn
Esperando por nada
waiting for nothing
De arrastar-me no chão
From dragging me to the ground
Tu viraste-me as costas
you turned your back on me
Não me deu as respostas
Didn't give me the answers
Que eu preciso escutar
What I need to hear
Quero que você seja melhor
I want you to be better
Hei de ser melhor também
I have to be better too
Já tivemos momentos
We've had moments
Mas passou nosso tempo
But our time has passed
Não podemos negar
we can't deny
Nós fizemos história
we made history
Pra ficar na memória
to stay in memory
E nos acompanhar
and accompany us
Quero que você viva sem mim
I want you to live without me
Eu vou conseguir também
I'll get it too
Depois de aceitarmos os fatos
After accepting the facts
Vou trocar seus retratos pelos de um outro alguém
I'll trade your portraits for someone else's
Vamos ter liberdade
let's have freedom
Para amar à vontade
to love at ease
Sem trair mais ninguém
Without betraying anyone else
Quero que você seja feliz
I want you to be happy
Hei de ser feliz também
I will be happy too
