George Michael Desafinado (english) Lyrics

Desafinado (english) Lyrics

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
