Lambada
Kaoma/Los Lobos Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Chorando se foi quem um dia só me fez chorar
Chorando se foi quem um dia só me fez chorar
Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar
Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar

A recordação vai estar com ele aonde for
A recordação vai estar pra sempre aonde for

Dança sol e mar, guardarei no olhar
O amor faz perder e encontrar

Lambando estarei ao lembrar que esse amor
Por um dia, um instante foi rei

A recordação vai estar com ele aonde for
A recordação vai estar pra sempre aonde for

Chorando estará ao lembrar de um amor
Que um dia não soube cuidar
Canção riso e dor, melodia de amor
Um momento que fica no ar





Dançando lambada
