Meu Louco
João Nogueira Lyrics

Quando eu enlouquecia
Meu louco me dizia
Coisas que eu não sabia
E o doido me dava grande agonia

A face era vazia
A pele lisa e fria
E se eu adormecia
Ele me acordava com os risos da fantasia

Deus, era tão pouco espaço
Entre a loucura e o cansaço
E ele fingia que era eu

E quando eu resistia
Ele chegava insistia
Que eu já era seu

Fala meu louco malvado
Deixa meu corpo de lado
Eu vou ser feliz, adeus
