Romance Muito Louco
Ivete Sangalo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ai que vontade de te ver
Te abraçar e te beijar
Te amassar e te morder

Deixa marcas no pescoço
Um romance muito louco
Tudo em nome do prazer

Um gostoso tempero é você
Quem vai me dar
Eu quero um aconchego pra poder
Me acomodar

Se não me der eu choro
Adormeço no teu colo
Pra poder me acostumar

Meu amor
Eu quero me enrroscar
Nesse teu corpo

Eu quero te amar e te amar
Um momento só não dá
Um beijo só é muito pouco

Uê lá lá lá lá lá uêrará
Oh lá lá lá lá lá lá uêrará
No balanço da rede

Seu carinho no aconchego
E que vai me consolar
