Um Em Um Milhão Lyrics in English Simone & Simaria

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Um Em Um Milhão by Simone & Simaria from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Hello, breathe deeply
Because the news is not good
Verse 1
Hello, unfortunately it involves another person
I know you will judge me
It's not a man's role
To ruin someone's life
Like this over the phone
Sorry if I'm being an idiot
Worse would be knocking on your door
Taking the risk of not telling you
That the best for me
Today is not you
And I am just one more in a million
Being cowardly in a call
But I assure you, it wasn't your fault
The blame was on a love
That between us didn't happen
Verse 2
I know you will judge me
It's not a man's role
To ruin someone's life
Like this over the phone
Sorry if I'm being an idiot
Worse would be knocking on your door
Taking the risk of not telling you
That the best for me
Today is not you
And I am just one more in a million
Being cowardly in a call
But I assure you, it wasn't your fault
The blame was on a love
That between us didn't happen
Sorry if I'm being an idiot
Worse would be knocking on your door
Taking the risk of not telling you
That the best for me
Today is not you
And I am just one more in a million
Being cowardly in a call
But I assure you, it wasn't your fault
The blame was on a love
That between us didn't happen

SONG MEANING

Heartbreak on speed-dial – that is the bittersweet scene painted in “Um Em Um Milhão”. Over a simple phone call, the narrator confesses that “the best for me today isn’t you”, admitting he is “just one more in a million” who chooses the easy way out. He owns up to his cowardice, yet insists the listener did nothing wrong; the real villain is a love that simply never bloomed.

Behind the lively sertanejo beat, Simone & Simaria deliver a relatable tale of modern breakups, where distance, hesitation and a sudden change of heart converge in the least romantic medium: a ringtone. The song captures that stomach-knot moment when someone realizes the relationship’s spark has faded and, instead of meeting face-to-face, resorts to a quick call to avoid deeper pain. It is a catchy reminder that sometimes the hardest truth to hear is also the most freeing – the relationship failed not because of faults, but because true love never took root.
