Confesso
Dona Ivone Lara Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Confesso
É um direito que me assiste
Vou recorrer à justiça divina
Pra aliviar meu sofrer

Tenham de mim compaixão
Meu coração magoado
Só sabe pedir perdão
{bis}

Errei
Ignorando a verdade
Impulsos de crueldade
Levaram-me à prática de uma traição
Choro
Choro de arrependimento
Sofro
Peço a todo momento
Perdão
Recorri a Deus, de coração
Pra me tirar desta aflição
E me dar salvação

Leigos como eu têm que aprender
Que neste mundo de ilusão




Eu vou ter de sofrer
{bis}
