I Want You Back
Daniela Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu tenho andado tao só
Quem me olha nem me vê
Silêncio em meu violão
Nem eu mesma sei porque

Derrepente ficou frio
Eu Não vim aqui para ser feliz
Cadê o meu sol dourado
Cadê as coisas do meu país

I don't want to stay here
I want to go back to Bahia




I don't want to stay here
I want to go back to Bahia
