Letter

Eu encontrei uma carta em um livro antigo,I found a letter in an old book,
Que acabei de comprar em uma loja de usados.I just bought from a second-hand shop.
Estava prensada entre duas páginas perto do fim,It was pressed between two pages near the end,
E eu li aqueles segredos que alguém nunca soube.And I read those secrets somebody never got.

Ela escreveu sobre amor,She wrote about love,
Ela escreveu sobre traição.She wrote about cheating.
Ela escreveu sobre a esposa dele, os filhos dele:She wrote about his wife, his kids:
E ela escreveu sobre ir embora.An' she wrote about leavin'.

Eu levei a carta para um velho na Rua Maple.I took the letter to an old man on Maple Street.
O sorriso dele era agridoce.His smile was bitter sweet.
Enquanto ele segurava a maré de memórias nas mãos,As he held the tide of memories in his hands,
Ele finalmente soube o motivo de nunca mais ter visto ela.He finally knew the reason he never saw her again.

Ele leu sobre amor,He read about love,
Ele leu sobre traição.He read about cheating.
Ele leu sobre a esposa dele, os filhos dele:He read about his wife, his kids:
E ele leu sobre ir embora.An' he read about leavin'.

Enquanto ele dobrava a carta,As he folded the letter,
Ele falou sobre os erros que cometeu na juventude.He talked about the mistakes he'd made in his younger days.
Embora nunca tivesse a intenção de machucá-la, ela sabia,Though he never meant to hurt her, she knew,
Ele faria o que fosse preciso.He'd do what he had to.
Então ela se mudou.So she moved away.
E pelo olhar nos olhos dele,And by the look in his eyes,
Eu sabia que aquele amor ainda estava vivo.I knew that that love was still alive.
Escondido entre as linhas da carta.Hidden between the lines of the letter.

Oh, e ela escreveu sobre amor,Oh, an' she wrote about love,
Ela escreveu sobre traição.She wrote about cheating.
Ela escreveu sobre a esposa dele, os filhos dele:She wrote about his wife, his kids:
E ela escreveu sobre ir embora.An' she wrote about leavin'.
Na carta.In the letter.
