Fico Assim Sem Você Lyrics in English Adriana Calcanhotto

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fico Assim Sem Você by Adriana Calcanhotto from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Airplane without wings, bonfire without embers
That's me without you
Soccer without a ball, Tweety without Sylvester
That's me without you
Why does it have to be like this
If my desire never ends
I want you every moment
Not even a thousand loudspeakers can speak for me
Verse 2
Love without a little kiss, Buchecha without Claudinho
That's me without you
Circus without a clown, dating without making out
That's me without you
I'm crazy to see you arrive
I'm crazy to have you in my hands
Lie in your arms, take back the piece
That's missing from my heart
I don't exist away from you
And loneliness is my worst punishment
I count the hours till I can see you
But the clock's mad at me
Why? Why?
Verse 3
Baby without a pacifier, Romeo without Juliet
That's me without you
Car without a road, cheese without guava paste
That's me without you
Why does it have to be like this
If my desire never ends
I want you every moment, not even a thousand loudspeakers
Will be able to speak for me
I don't exist away from you
And loneliness is my worst punishment
I count the hours till I can see you
But the clock's mad at me
I don't exist away from you
And loneliness is my worst punishment
I count the hours till I can see you
But the clock's mad at me

SONG MEANING

“Fico Assim Sem Você” is a playful yet heartfelt ode to how empty life feels when the person you love is missing. Adriana Calcanhotto lines up a parade of mismatched pairs to show her sense of incompleteness:

  • airplane without wings
  • soccer without a ball
  • Tweety without Sylvester
  • Romeo without Juliet Each comparison is fun and vivid, but together they paint a clear picture: she simply does not function without her other half.

Beneath the humor beats a sincere declaration of longing. She counts the hours, battles loneliness and begs time to hurry, because every moment apart feels like a punishment. With catchy imagery rooted in Brazilian culture (“cheese without guava paste,” “Buchecha without Claudinho”), the song transforms a universal feeling into a sing-along confession of love and need.
