E a\u00ed, pessoal? Tudo beleza?<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m a fan of Latin music and Gloria Estefan ranks high on my list. I was checking out some of her old videos on Youtube and I came across this 1989 version of her song Don’t Wanna Lose You<\/strong>. Because she’s Cuban and also speaks Spanish her pronunciation in Portuguese is very good!<\/p>\n

Check out the video and the lyrics.<\/p>\n

Se Tenho que Te Perder [If I Have to Lose You]<\/em><\/strong>
\nGloria Estefan<\/p>\n

Vivendo assim [Living like this]<\/em>
\nSem ter porqu\u00ea [Not needing to]<\/em>
\nQuerendo ter prazer no amor [Wanting to have pleasure in love]<\/em>
\nQue est\u00e1 quase no fim [That is almost at the end]<\/em>
\nCansei de esperar [I’m tired of waiting]<\/em>
\nCansei de sonhar [I’m tired of dreaming]<\/em>
\nTentando achar a solu\u00e7\u00e3o [Trying to find the solution]<\/em>
\nMas eu nao fui capaz [But I wasn’t able]<\/em><\/p>\n

Agora voc\u00ea [Now it is]<\/em>
\nVai decidir [Up to you]<\/em>
\nSe \u00e9 pra mentir mais uma vez [If you’re going to lie again]<\/em>
\n\u00c9 melhor outro adeus, adeus [It’s better to say good-bye again, good-bye]<\/em><\/p>\n

Se tenho que te perder [If I have to lose you]<\/em>
\nPra qu\u00ea me fazer sofrer [Why make me suffer]<\/em>
\nSe tenho que te perder [If I have to lose you]<\/em>
\nPra sempre [Forever]<\/em>
\nTenho que aprender [I have to learn]<\/em>
\nA viver sem voc\u00ea [To live without you]<\/em>
\nSe tenho que te perder [If I have to lose you]<\/em>
\nPra sempre [Forever]<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00c9 triste demais [It’s too sad]<\/em>
\nTer e n\u00e3o ter [To have and not to have]<\/em>
\nFicar sem saber se vai voltar [Not knowing if you’re coming back]<\/em>
\nOu se vai me esquecer [Or forget about me]<\/em><\/p>\n

N\u00e3o quero um favor [I don’t want a favor]<\/em>
\nNem compaix\u00e3o [Or compassion]<\/em>
\nEu n\u00e3o sei viver de ilus\u00e3o [I can’t live off of ilusions]<\/em>
\nEu preciso de amor, amor [I need love, love]<\/em><\/p>\n

Se tenho que te perder… [If I have to lose you…]<\/em><\/p>\n
