cartão postal
Exaltasamba Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te filmei você não viu
É a coisa mais bonita
O seu corpo de perfil
Pode parecer bobagem
Um impulso infantil
Meu amor não é chantagem
Te proponho, amor
Um trato que tal se render?
Eu te dou o seu retrato
Mas quero você
Você na foto toda nua
Num banho de lua
Meu cartão postal
Meu corpo deu sinal
O meu desejo continua
Desejando a sua
Boca sensual
Meu sonho real
The lyrics to Exaltasamba's song Cartão Postal describe a moment in which the singer films their lover without them noticing, admiring their profile and beauty. The singer admits that this action may seem childish and impulsive, but reassures their lover that this isn't a manipulation tactic, but rather a genuine attraction to them. The singer then suggests a trade: they will give their lover a portrait of themselves in exchange for a nude photograph of their lover.
This song is about desire and the lengths that people will go to in order to fulfill their cravings. The singer recognizes their attraction to their lover and has the confidence to make a proposal to them. This could be interpreted as an act of vulnerability, as the singer is opening themselves up to potential rejection, but it could also be seen as a display of power and control in the relationship. Overall, the lyrics showcase the complex emotions that arise in romantic relationships and the lengths that people will go to in order to fulfill their desires.
