Comadre Fulozinha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
É na Tamarineira que eu vou parar
Triste de quem ama pra quem não conhece
Meu coração padece
Eu não sei o que faço
Vivo na carreira pra lá e pra cá
É na Tamarineira que eu vou parar
Letra enviada por Cely Sousa
In "Tamarineira", Comadre Fulozinha sings about the restlessness that comes with constantly being on the move. The song's first verse translates to "I live on the run here and there / It's in Tamarineira that I'll stop / Sad for those who love someone they don't know / My heart suffers / I don't know what to do." Here, the singer expresses a sense of aimlessness and uncertainty about her path, and reflects on the pain that can come from loving someone who is not truly known.
