Cola-te A Mim Lyrics in English Nininho Vaz Maia

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cola-te A Mim by Nininho Vaz Maia from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
I told you to stop, but I can't
Stop thinking about your lips
Pressed against mine on your body
Sweaty with mine
Now I don't know what to say
Looking at the couch and I can't understand
This emptiness living inside
Stick to me again
You're my suffocation
Without you I go crazy
Stick to me again
Verse 2
And now tell me, tell me
If you're better like this
If you're better without me
Tell me if time didn't stop
And if nothing changed
Verse 2
Tell me!!!
Stick to me again
You're my suffocation
Without you I go crazy
Stick to me again
Bridge
And if I say that without you I can't take it anymore
And if I say that without you I don't know how to love
Stick to me again
You're my suffocation
Without you I go crazy
Stick to me again
Stick to me again
You're my suffocation
Without you I go crazy
Stick to me again

SONG MEANING

Cola-te A Mim brings the raw, soulful energy of Portuguese artist Nininho Vaz Maia to the forefront. The title means “Stick to Me”, and the lyrics unfold like a late-night confession: he remembers the heat of intertwined bodies, the taste of shared kisses, and the instant emptiness that followed their separation. The singer admits he told his partner to stop, yet his mind keeps replaying those moments. Looking at the lonely sofa, he cannot make sense of the void that has settled inside him.

Now he pleads for a reunion. He wants to know if she is really better off without him or if time has simply frozen since they split. Repeating “Cola-te a mim de novo” (“Cling to me again”), he reveals a love that is both sufoco (suffocating) and essential to his sanity. The song captures the push-and-pull of passion: the fear of losing oneself in another person, paired with the unbearable thought of being apart. Packed with flamenco-tinged guitar and heartfelt vocals, Cola-te A Mim is a rhythmic reminder that love can drive us crazy in the sweetest way.
