This Romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
Este Romeo está sangrando
Porem você não pode ver o sangue
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
Não é nada mais que alguns sentimentos
Que esse velho sujeito jogou fora

It's been raining since you left me
Tem chovido desde que você me abandonou
Now I'm drowning in the flood
Agora estou me afogando na enchente
You see I've always been a fighter
Você sabe que sempre fui um lutador
But without you I give up
Mas sem você , eu entrego os pontos

Now I can't sing a love song
Hoje não consigo cantar uma canção de amor
Like the way it's meant to be
Da mesma forma que cantava antes
Well I guess I'm not that good anymore
Bem, acho que não sou mais tão bom
But baby that's just me
Mas querida, É assim que sou

And I will love you baby always
No entanto eu sempre te amarei, meu bem
And I'll be there forever and a day always
Estarei a seu dispor para sempre , sempre que precisar
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Estarei a seu dispor até as estrelas deixarem de brilhar
Till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
Até que o céu se exploda e as palavras não rimem
And I know when I die you'll be on my mind
Tenho certeza que você estará em minha mente quando eu morrer
And I'll love you always
Te amarei...sempre

Now your pictures that you left behind
Hoje as fotos que você deixou pra trás
Are just memories of a different life
São apenas recordações de uma vida diferente
Some that made us laugh
Algumas que nos fazem sorrir
Some that made us cry
Outras que nos fazem chorar
One that made you have to say good bye
Alguém que te fez dizer Adeus

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
O que não daria para tocar seu cabelo
To touch your lips to hold you near
Tocar seus lábios, te abraçar
When you say your prayers try to understand
Em suas orações , tente entender
I've made mistakes I'm just a man
Que cometi erros...que sou apenas um homem

When he holds you close
Quando ele te abraça apertado
When he pulls you near
Quando ele te puxa pra perto
When he says the words
Quando ele diz as palavras
You've been needing to hear
Que você ansiava ouvir
I'll wish I was him cause these words are mine
Desejaria ser ele pois essas palavras são minhas
To say to you till the end of time
Que eu te diria até o fim da vida

And I will love you baby always
Eu te amarei eternamente , querida
And I'll be there forever and a day always
Estarei ás suas ordens sempre , até o fim
If you told me to cry for you I could
Se me dissesse pra chorar por você, eu choraria
If you told me to die for you I would
Se me pedisse pra morrer por você , eu morreria
Take a look at my face
Olhe em meu rosto
There's no price I won't pay
Não há dinheiro que eu não pague
To say these words to you
Pra dizer essas palavras pra você


Well there ain't no luck in this loaded dice
Sei que não há sorte nesse dado viciado
But baby if you give me just one more try
No entanto, meu amor, se você me der só mais uma chance
We can pack up our old dreams and our old lives
Poderemos refazer nossos velhos sonhos e nossa velha vida
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
Encontraremos um lugar onde o sol ainda brilhe

And I will love you baby always
And I'll be there forever and a day always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
And I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you always

I only have one pair of scissors and you have at least three. Therefore, you have more. So I think we divided things pretty equally.
