She is specialized in recording covers, such as Madonna, No Doubt, Oasis, U2, Sixpence none the Richer and Goo Goo Dolls.

With her appealing voice, she caught attention of the public around 2003, right after the debut of her first album, “Rock ‘N’ Road”, which sold over 80,000 copies; a sequel came a little after the first, “Rock ‘N’ Road Again”. Both albums are covers of great hits of international pop-rock music. Danni does all the job of rearranging tracks with Rick Ferreira and Rogério Lucas, resulting in a spiced up Don’t Speak (No Doubt), filled with sensual, Caribbean timbers, and a With or Without You (U2) set in a very feminine universe.

I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
Danni Carlos Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Coz i'd miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Laying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
I just want to stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever

Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Coz I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Yeah , Yeah , Yeah , Yeah , Yeah

Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Coz I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Coz I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Don't wanna close my eyes

Don't wanna fall asleep, yeah
I don't wanna miss a thing
