Maysa Matarazzo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Darling, we couldn't get in the fire

Come on baby, light my fire
Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
If I was to say to you
Darling you couldn't get in the fire

Come on baby, light my fire




Come on baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire, yeah

Maysa interpretando magnificamente um clássico do The Doors.

@anaalban8836

Maysa era increíble! Qué voz! Qué versatilidad! Cantaba en varios idiomas y todos los géneros musicales. Soberbia!

@theWARMJET

Há algo de fantástico no modo que Maysa captou uma época com a sua voz, interpretação e sensibilidade. Da música ligeira, orquestrada , a fusões várias, versões várias também. Maysa capturou a essência de um época de maneira sublime e inesquecível

@anaalban8836

Fabulosa!

@BethaMedeiros

Que gente idiota! Elis era divina. Maysa era maravilhosa!

@Ricardo-sg3dh

Você dizer que não gosta da Elis é uma coisa, agora dizer que ela é uma bosta... na boa, podia ter guardado essas palavras pra vc mesma. Elis Regina é tão importante para a música brasileira como Maysa. Ambas estão no mesmo patamar, no quesito qualidade. E amei essa versão de Light My Fire. ><

@GisleneBosnich

Concordo. Eu amo a Elis e a Maysa é sensacional também.
