Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Veneno de amor ô ô
É como se fosse
Veneno de amor ô ô
Eu aprendi a viver
E viverei pra te amar
Mergulhar no prazer
E namorar na praia
Minha vida é você
Vou me molhar na chuva
E te beijar com calor
E sempre vou te amar pra valer
Eu consegui entender
E entendi o porque
Porquê você me deixa
Envenenado de amor
Confesso tô ligado
Em provar teu sabor
Vou me molhar na chuva
E te beijar com calor
E sempre vou te amar pra valer
