Ivete Sangalo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Por mais que animais
Assim que somos gente
Muitos comuns, poucos raros
Normais alguns mortais, outros tão diferentes
O mundo assim é formado

Como eu te encontrei
Se estava dentro de mim?

Meu amor, o meu amor e tudo mais

Eu quero viver
Eu quero te ver
Eu não quero sofrer
Eu não quero morrer
Eu espero poder
Eu espero você
E tudo mais

Que sorte a nossa
No mundo há tanta gente
E a vida me pôs ao seu lado
Será que a sorte é só nossa
Ou vem pra toda gente?
Do mundo ficar do seu lado

Quando te beijei
O mundo se fez necessário
Meu amor, o teu amor
E tudo mais

Por isso eu quero dizer
Que eu quero te ver
Eu não quero viver
Pra morrer de saudade
Eu espero você

Eu espero poder
E tudo mais
