Genius English Translations
Mariza - O Tempo Não Pára (English Translation)
I know
That life is in a hurry
For everything to happen
Without us asking for it
I know

I know
That time doesn't stop
Time is a scarce thing
And we only notice
When it has already passed
 
I don't know if I walked too fast
But I know that I've missed a smile

I will ask of time
To give me more time
To look at you
From now on
I will not be distant
I will be here. 

I sang
I sang the nostalgia
For my city
And even with pride
I sang

I walked
Out across the world
And the time wouldn't come
(Hmm)
For me to go back to you

I don't know if I walked too fast
But I know that I've missed a smile

I will ask of time
To give me more time
To look at you
From now on
I will not be distant
I will be here. 

I don't know if I walked too fast
But I know that I've missed a smile

I will ask of time
To give me more time
To look at you
From now on
I will not be distant
I will be here
