Carrossel
Sérgio Britto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que era tio de Carlos
Marta, sogra de Paulo Roberto, melhor amigo de Claudia
Era amante de Mauro
Nando que é neto de Elias e está noivo de Bruna
Se dá muito bem com os pais
Lucas, irmão mais novo de Laura, que é nora de Marcelo
Já não namora mais
Vânia gosta do primo de Nelson que é genro de Ricardo
Cunhado do seu Cazé
Théo, afilhado de Isabel que é mãe de Eduardo
Só teve uma mulher
Lygia, que é madrinha de Heitor, encontrou seu grande amor
E casou mais uma vez
Cassia, filha adotiva de Marcia, bebeu além da conta
E nem deu conta do que fez
João, André, Roberta, Maria
São novas histórias de amor
Novas histórias de amor acontecem todo dia
Dináh, José, Letícia, Antônio
São tantos os nomes do amor
Tantos os nomes do amor
Quantos cabem nos seus sonhos?
Vera é avó de Fabiana, viúva de Marco Aurélio
Que adorava as duas filhas
Hélio, que tinha filhos e esposa e não gostava dessas coisas
Abandonou a família
Sílvia, que agora está com Rubens, já teve três namorados
E ainda pensa em Raul
Rita, separada de Raí, saía toda noite e ia com qualquer um
João, André, Roberta, Maria
São novas histórias de amor
Novas histórias de amor acontecem todo dia
Dináh, José, Letícia, Antônio
São tantos os nomes do amor
Tantos os nomes do amor
Quantos cabem nos seus sonhos?
