Lição de Professor
Os Travessos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Não me canso de insistir
Eterno sonhador
Eu nem acreditava, a aula terminou
Teu sorriso um bem me dava, lição de professor
Posso sentir você se aproximar
Não vou fugir, vi a sorte se lançar
Escrever minha paixão nas linhas do teu coração
E pensar que só amanhã eu vou te encontrar
Tanto tempo longe assim não dá
Doce forma de me torturar
Vem pra cá, me cubra de beijos meu amor
Me faça sentir o teu calor
Vontade mais louca de te amar
