The band began playing covers of their favorite songs at clubs in town, and slowly gained a following. A lucky break led to Iris playing at the KRBE 104.1 festival in Houston with acts like C&C Music Factory and Lucas, as well as a performance at the side stage of the Duran Duran / Waterlilies concert that same year. After the appearance of an early version of the track "Annie, Would I Lie To You" on various compilations, the band signed with Todd Durrant from A Different Drum, and work began on the first record.

Como se fôra
Iris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No poente sombrio
No fechar das pétalas
De noites despidas
Como se fôra a nuvem
A passar levemente
Nos meus olhos serenos
Nesse mar onde navego
Eu levo a onda vencida
Com a força que me entrego
Ao imenso mar da vida
Como se fôra o céu
A beijar o mar
Em ondas suaves
No meu corpo de luar
Como se fôra a onda
A beijar o meu corpo
Em doce volúpia
Nas margens do meu sonho
Nesse mar onde navego
Eu levo a onda vencida
Com a força que me entrego
Ao imenso mar da vida
The first stanza of Como se fôra talks about the setting sun, and how it brings a somber feeling. The closing petals of flowers signify the end of something, and the nights seem empty and lonely. The imagery in this stanza creates a sense of sadness and finality, as the day comes to an end and darkness takes over.
The second stanza references a passing cloud, which is a symbol of moving on, and this is contrasted with the calmness of the singer's eyes. The tears hidden behind the serenity of her eyes, indicate a lingering sadness, that is not easily expressed. The singer seems to be going through a period of transition, where things are changing around her, and she's trying to cope with her emotions.
The third stanza is about the sea, which is a metaphor for life. The singer says she carries a conquered wave with her, giving her strength to face the immense ocean of life. There's definitely a sense of resilience and determination in these lines, as the singer battles life's challenges with courage.
The fourth stanza describes the union of the sky and the sea, which is portrayed as a tender and beautiful moment. The singer likens the gentle waves to waves of the moon's light, which is almost poetic.
Finally, the last stanza is about the singer's body being embraced by the sea, which is once again portrayed as a romantic encounter. This is probably a metaphor for her finally surrendering to life, and accepting whatever it brings her way.
In summary, Como se fôra is a song about the ebb and flow of life, where the singer is trying to navigate her way through the ups and downs, while acknowledging the beauty of it all.
