Tenho tanto pra falar
Não deixe que o mau tempo venha pra desarrumar
Se a gente arrumou
Ninguém vai bagunçar
Vem cá, me dê um abraço
Vamos acalmar
A vida já mostrou
Não é pra duvidar

Isso é coisa de momento, eu sei que vai passar

Pois é
Nosso grande amor
Que balança mas não cai
Com fé
Já se superou
Rumo ao infinito vai

E por ser tão forte assim
Bem mais lindo que um jardim
Nada pode abalar
Teu sorriso é bom pra mim
Só eu sei te alegrar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar

E por ser tão forte assim
Bem mais lindo que um jardim
Nada pode abalar
Teu sorriso é bom pra mim
Só eu sei te alegrar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar

Tenho tanto pra falar
Não deixe que o mau tempo venha pra desarrumar
Se a gente arrumou
Ninguém vai bagunçar
Vem cá, me dê um abraço
Vamos acalmar
A vida já mostrou
Não é pra duvidar
Isso é coisa de momento, eu sei que vai passar

Pois é
Nosso grande amor
Que balança mas não cai
Com fé
Já se superou
Rumo ao infinito vai

E por ser tão forte assim
Bem mais lindo que um jardim
Nada pode abalar
Teu sorriso é bom pra mim
Só eu sei te alegrar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar

E por ser tão forte assim
Bem mais lindo que um jardim
Nada pode abalar
Teu sorriso é bom pra mim
Só eu sei te alegrar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar

Teu sorriso é bom pra mim
Só eu sei te alegrar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar

Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar
Tá na hora da gente com jeito reconciliar
