Tough

Forte

Tough

Ela tá na cozinha ao amanhecerShe's in the kitchen at the crack of dawn
O bacon tá fritando, o café tá forteBacon's on, coffee's strong
As crianças correndo soltas, tirando a roupaKids running wild, taking off their clothes
Se ela tá nervosa, nunca pareceIf she's a nervous wreck, well it never shows
Leva um pra jogar bola e outro pra dançarTakes one to football and one to dance
Passa na academia pra aula de aeróbicaHits the Y for aerobics class
Dá uma passada no banco, para na lojaDrops by the bank, stops at the store
Sorrindo quando eu entro pela portaHas on a smile when I walk through the door
A última a ir pra cama, será a primeira a acordarThe last to go to bed, she'll be the first one up
E eu achava que era forteAnd I thought I was tough

RefrãoChorus
Ela é forte, segue em frente, não dá pra pararShe's strong, pushes on, can't slow her down
Ela aguenta qualquer coisa que a vida jogarShe can take anything life dishes out
Teve uma épocaThere was a time
Antes de ela ser minhaBack before she was mine
Quando eu achava que era forteWhen I thought I was tough

Nós estávamos lá, faz cinco anosWe sat there five years ago
Os médicos nos avisaramThe doctors let us know
O exame mostrouThe test showed
Que ela teria que lutar pra viver, eu desabei e choreiShe'd have to fight to live, I broke down and cried
Ela me abraçou e disse que ia ficar tudo bemShe held me and said it's gonna be alright
Ela usou aquela peruca na igrejaShe wore that wig to church
Fita rosa presa na camisaPink ribbon pinned there on her shirt
Sem espaço pra medo, cheia de féNo room for fear, full of faith
Mãos levantadas cantando Amazing GraceHands held high singing Amazing Grace
Nunca reclamou, se recusou a desistirNever once complained, refusing to give up
E eu achava que era forteAnd I thought I was tough

RefrãoChorus
Ela é forte, segue em frente, não dá pra pararShe's strong, pushes on, can't slow her down
Ela aguenta qualquer coisa que a vida jogarShe can take anything life dishes out
Teve uma épocaThere was a time
Antes de ela ser minhaBack before she was mine
Quando eu achava que era forteWhen I thought I was tough

Ela é uma palavra suave, o beijo mais doceShe's a gentle word, the sweetest kiss
Um toque aveludado na minha peleA velvet touch against my skin
Eu a vi chorar, eu a vi quebrarI've seen her cry, I've seen her break
Mas aos meus olhos, ela sempre será forteBut in my eyes, she'll always be strong

Teve uma épocaThere was a time
Antes de ela ser minhaBack before she was mine
Quando eu achava que era forteWhen I thought I was tough
