Ai, a rua escura, o vento frio
Essa saudade, esse vazio
Essa vontade de chorar.
Ai, tua distância tão amiga
Essa ternura tão antiga
E o desencanto de esperar.
Sim, eu não te amo porque quero.
Ah, se eu pudesse esqueceria.
Vivo, e vivo só porque te espero.
Ai, esta amargura, esta agonia.
O meu amor tem um jeito manso que é só seu...
