Pérola
Asa De Águia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh meu amor a paz senti
Deliciosamente
E a fragância de perfume
De jasmim que eu te dei
Quando vi tudo
Do teu beijo
Quando um beija-flor
Aparece ao vento
E a lembraça do amor
No acaso ficará
Nessa cantiga
Pérola
Pérola luz
Pérola
Flor que seduz
Chorei
Sentado na relva
Aonde o vento me levou
Na distância do amor
Nessa lembrança
E eu sorrir pensando nela
E a saudade que ficou
Quando a gente se beijou
Na passarela
Pérola, pérola luz
Pérola, flor que reluz
