Lyrics and translation Kirsty MacColl - Nao Esperando

Nao Esperando

She awakes when the sun has found her face
And she reaches for the tin where she keeps important things
A cigarette, a magic bean, a page torn from a magazine
And a letter that he sent full of promises and dreams
Of how he walked across the jungle
Across the desert to the bright shiny city by the sea

She′s not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She's not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the spell is broken
She′s not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She's not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the dream has flown away

Another day, now his words have worn away
And his face, well she can't quite remember
And she sighs with remorse, all her dreams are flying north
Where they wear fancy clothes, painted nails and long blonde hair
And where they fly across the jungle
Across the desert to the bright shiny city by the sea

She′s not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She′s not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the spell is broken
She's not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She′s not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the dream has flown away

See her fly across the jungle
Across the desert to the bright shiny city by the sea

She's not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She′s not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the spell is broken
She's not waiting anymore
Não esperando seu amor
(She′s not waiting for her love)
Now the sun is up the dream has flown away

Nao Esperando

Elle se réveille quand le soleil a trouvé son visage
Et elle tend la main vers la boîte où elle garde des choses importantes
Une cigarette, un haricot magique, une page arrachée d'un magazine
Et une lettre qu'il a envoyée pleine de promesses et de rêves
De comment il a traversé la jungle
A travers le désert jusqu'à la ville brillante et scintillante au bord de la mer

Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le charme est brisé
Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le rêve s'est envolé

Un autre jour, maintenant ses mots se sont effacés
Et son visage, eh bien, elle ne se souvient plus très bien
Et elle soupire de remords, tous ses rêves s'envolent vers le nord
Où ils portent des vêtements chics, des ongles peints et de longs cheveux blonds
Et où ils volent à travers la jungle
A travers le désert jusqu'à la ville brillante et scintillante au bord de la mer

Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le charme est brisé
Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le rêve s'est envolé

La voilà qui vole à travers la jungle
A travers le désert jusqu'à la ville brillante et scintillante au bord de la mer

Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le charme est brisé
Elle n'attend plus
Não esperando seu amor
(Elle n'attend plus son amour)
Maintenant que le soleil est levé, le rêve s'est envolé
