I Can’t Stop
My love come and rescue
my poor heart
my poor heart
my soul still doesn’t want
to believe that our story is over
there isn’t anything I didn’t try
to make you disappear
from all my thoughts
I even ran away to New York to start over
but I can’t stop
I will always love you
without you my life is just solitude
I can’t forget
the beauty of this passion
My love come rescue my poor heart
My love come rescue my poor heart
You don’t want to see me waiting like this
where is the promise you asked of me
I want to tell you I did not forget
I am willing to go to the end of the pact
and maybe I will return to mozambique
with you by my side
but I can’t stop
I will always love you
without you my life is just solitude
I can’t forget
the beauty of this passion
My love come rescue my poor heart
I even ran away to New York to start over
I even ran away to New York to start over
If Sade and Bebel Gilberto or Marcela Mangabeira had a baby Clarisse Albrecht would be it. I am so in love with this beautiful soul and her music. I bought this song soon after finding it on youtube and for the past few days I have been listening to it over and over because I find her voice so incredibly soothing.
I’ve included a very rough translation of the lyrics in English so that those who don’t speak Portuguese can see appreciate how incredible this song is (granted my English translation is not half as fluid and poetic as the original Portuguese :p).
Other faves of mine from Clarisse include Você Me Da (You Give Me) and No Puedo Parar (spanish version of Não Posso Parar). Clarisse also has online campaign to help her fund her first complete album and you can find Clarisse’s full bio on that page.
If you fall in love with this music and can help, please do. The universe NEEDS a complete Clarisse Albrecht album!
What do you guys think?
