Desafinado (english) Lyrics - George Michael

Se voce disser que eu desafino amor 

Saiba que isso em mim provoca imensa dor 

So previlegiados tem ouvido igual ao seu 

Eu possuo apenas o que deus me deu 

E se voce insiste em classificar 

Com o meu comportamento de anti-musical 

Nao lhes vou mentir ate vou comentar 

Que isso e bossa-nova 

Que isso e muito natural 

Que voce nao sabe nem sequer pressente 

E que os desafinados tambem tem um coracao 

Fotografei voce na minha role-flix 

Revelou-se a sua enorme engratidao 

So nao podera falar assim do meu amor 

Que bem maior que voce pode encontrar 

Voce passou a musica e esqueceu o principal 

Que no peito dos desafinados 

No fundo do peito bate calado 

No peito dos desafinados tambem bate um coracao 

(Antonio Jobim) 

(This song is from Tony Jobim a famous brazilian singer) 

I've got two English translations of Desafinado: 

Translation 1: 

Ella Fitzgerald's version of Desafinado: 

Love is like a never-ending melody 

Always have compared it to a symphony 

A symphony conducted by the lighting of the moon 

But our song of love is slightly out of tune 

Once your kisses raised me to a fever pitch 

Now the orchestration doesn't seem so rich 

Seems to me you've changed the tune we used to sing 

Like the bossa nova, love should swing 

We used to harmonize, two souls in perfect time 

Now the song is different and the words don't even rhyme 

Cause you forgot the melody our hearts would always croon 

So what good's a heart that's slightly out of tune 

Tune your heart to mine the way it used to be 

Join with me in harmony and sing a song of loving 

We've got to get in tune again before too long 

There'll be no desafinado 

When your heart belongs to me completely 

Then you won't be slightly out of tune 

You'll sing along with me 

> (Very jazzy, swingy, and upbeat version) 

Translation 2: 

Desafinado 

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 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 tume I have a gentle heart 

I took your picture with my trusty Rollerflex 

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 all that matters is the message that I bring, 

Which is, my dear, I love you
