Resposta Lyrics in English Skank

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Resposta by Skank from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Way more than the time
that we lost
what brought us together was left behind too
I still remember I was reading
just to find out what you thought
about the verses I wrote
and I still wait for an answer
the wind undoes what’s inside
that place nobody else stepped
you’re seeing what’s happening
in this notebook I know there still are
your verses
so mine that I plead
in my verses
so yours that I hope you accept them
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance
Verse 2
way more than the time that we lost
what brought us together was left behind too
I still remember I was reading
just to find out what you thought
about your verses
so mine that I plead
about my verses
so yours that I hope you accept them
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance
Verse 3
the wind undoes what’s inside
that place nobody else stepped
you’re seeing what’s happening
in this notebook I know there still are
your verses
so mine that I plead
in my verses
so yours that I hope you accept them
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance
in peace I say I am
the past of what moves ahead
no more, I stay where I am
I’d rather keep my distance

SONG MEANING

Resposta feels like leafing through a secret diary while the pages flutter in a warm breeze.

The singer looks back on a love built around shared poems, remembering the exact moment he read his verses only to see what the other person thought. Time has swept away both the relationship and the courage to speak face to face, yet the question still hangs in the air: “What did you think?” He clings to the notebook where their lines are forever intertwined, admitting that the poems are now as much hers as his, and asks—almost pleads—that she accept them. Torn between hope and self-protection, he ultimately decides to keep his distance, calling himself “the old one who moves forward.” The result is a bittersweet mix of longing, pride, and quiet resignation that invites listeners to reflect on the power of words left unanswered.
