When Carnival Arrives
whoever sees me always standing still, far away
guarantees that I don't know how to samba
I'm saving myself for when carnival comes arrive
I'm just seeing, knowing, feeling, listening
and I can't speak
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
I see the crockery legs of the girl who passes by and I can't catch
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
how long have I been wanting your kiss
wet with passion fruit
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
and whoever offends me, humiliating, stepping on, thinking
that I will put up with it
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
and whoever sees me being beaten by life You doubt I'll fight back
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
I see the bar of the day appearing, asking us to sing
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
I have so much joy, postponed, muffled, I wish I could scream
I'm saving myself for when carnival arrives
