Desafinado (english)

If you say my singing is off key, my love

You would hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love ?

I wish i had an ear like yours,

A voice that would behave

All i have is feeling

And the voice god gave



You insist my music goes against the rules

Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools

I wrote this song for you

But you don't care

It's a crooked song, ah,

But my heart is there



The thing that you would see if you would play the part

Is even if i'm out of tune i have a gentle heart

I took your picture with my trusty rolliflex

And now all i have developed is complex



Possibly in vain, i hope you weaken, oh my love

And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of

A life of love and music with someone who'll understand



That even though i may be out of tune when i attempt to say

How much i love you

And all that matters is the message that i bring,

Which is: my dear one, i love you
