Elis Regina "Dois pra lá, dois pra cá" lyrics

Dois pra lá, dois pra cá

Sentindo frio em minha almaTe convidei pra dançarA tua voz me acalmavaSão dois pra lá, dois pra cá

Meu coração traiçoeiroBatia mais que o bongôTremia mais que as maracasDescompassado de amor

Minha cabeça rodandoRodava mais que os casaisO teu perfume gardeniaE não me perguntes mais

A tua mão no pescoçoAs tuas costas maciasPor quanto tempo rondaramAs minhas noites vazias

No dedo um falso brilhanteBrincos iguais ao colarE a ponta de um torturante band aidno calcanhar

Eu hoje me embriagandoDe uisque com guaranáOuvi tua voz murmurandoSão dois pra lá, dois pra cá

Spanish couplet:Dejaste abandonada la ilusiónQue había en mi corazon por ti

Two steps here, two steps there

With a chill in my soulI asked you to danceYour voice was soothingTwo steps here, two steps there

My treacherous heartWas pounding more than the bongo drums,Shivering more than the maracas,Skipping beats with love

My head was spinning,Making turns more than any couple on the dance floorOh your sweet parfum of gardeniasJust don't ask me to tell any more of it...

Your hand landing on my neckThe smoothness of your backsWhich haunted as a fantasyMy lonely nights for so long

A fake diamond ring on my fingerA pair of earrings matching the necklaceAnd the end of an annoying Band-AidHurting one of my wheels

Now here I am, lonely, making myself drunkBy a mix of wisky and guarana sodaI just heard your voice, gently whisperingTwo steps here, two steps thereIn total abandonment, you left the illusionThat I had in my heart for you
