I wanted to love but was afraid
I wanted to protect my heart
But love knows a secret
Fear can kill the heart

This is sweet water
Sweet water, my friend
This is sweet water
Sweet water, my friend

I never did a thing so certain
I learned of forgiveness (Literal: I entered the school of forgiveness)
My house is open
I opened all the doors of my heart

This is sweet water
Sweet water, my friend
This is sweet water
Sweet water, my friend

E quis salvar meu coração

Entrei pra escola do perdão
A minha casa vive aberta
Abre todas as portas do coração
