E Agora Lyrics in English Nininho Vaz Maia

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song E Agora by Nininho Vaz Maia from Portuguese to English.
Tonight I'm cold
I only think of you
I wait for an answer, I can't stay like this
And our dreams wait for us
Tell me if we'll fulfill them
I spend sleepless nights
Remembering the moments
I feel so trapped
And now
What do you want from me
Tonight in my bed you told me yes
You say you love me but you run away from here
What do you want from me
And now
What do you want from me
Tonight in my bed you told me yes
You say you love me but you run away from here
What do you want from me
And now
And time's up for you and me
I don't even want that answer anymore
There's no future for us
I'm tired of excuses
They're part of the past and I remember that
I spend sleepless nights
Remembering the moments
I feel so trapped
And now
What do you want from me
Tonight in my bed you said yes
You say you love me but you run away from here
What do you want from me
And now
What do you want from me
Tonight in my bed you said yes
You say you love me but you run away from here
What do you want from me
And now
What do you want from me
Tonight in my bed you said yes
You say you love me but you run away from here
What do you want from me
And now

SONG MEANING

E Agora (which translates to And Now) drops us right into the restless heart of a lover who cannot make peace with mixed signals. Nininho Vaz Maia’s soulful voice circles around three big feelings: longing, confusion, and frustration. All night he shivers alone, replaying memories where his partner promised “sim” in bed, only to vanish the next morning. Each chorus is a pleading question – “O que tu queres de mim?” / “What do you want from me?” – spotlighting that painful space between words of love and actions that contradict them.

As the verses progress, hope slowly erodes. Sleepless nostalgia turns into a firm decision: “Já nem quero essa resposta” / “I no longer want that answer.” The singer realizes that time has run out, excuses belong to the past, and the future they dreamed of is slipping away. It is a compact story of a relationship stuck at a crossroads, told with the raw guitar-driven flair that makes Portuguese flamenco-pop so gripping.
