Aquele Frevo Axé
Silva Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Que fazer?
Meu pensamento anda preso àquele carnaval
Volto a pisar esse chão
Enceno um drama banal
Tento refazer a trama
Mas o desfecho é igual

E você?
Será que canta calada aquele frevo axé
Que não me deixa dormir?
Ou terá perdido a fé
No que ficou prometido
Sem nos falarmos sequer

Meu amor
Ando na praça vazia e espero o Sol se pôr
Vejo o clarão se extinguir
Por trás da mão do poeta
Nosso amor não vai sumir
Veja onde a gente se achou
Estrelas já vão luzir
Na noite da baía preta
Queria tanto você aqui

Que fazer?
Meu pensamento anda preso àquele carnaval
Volto a pisar esse chão
Enceno um drama banal
Tento refazer a trama
Mas o desfecho é igual

E você?
Será que canta calada aquele frevo axé
Que não me deixa dormir?
Ou terá perdido a fé
No que ficou prometido
Sem nos falarmos sequer

Meu amor
Ando na praça vazia e espero o Sol se pôr
Vejo o clarão se extinguir
Por trás da mão do poeta
Nosso amor não vai sumir
Veja onde a gente se achou
Estrelas já vão luzir
Na noite da baía preta
Queria tanto você aqui

Overall Meaning

These lyrics describe the longing and nostalgia the singer feels for a particular carnival. They express the desire to relive that moment and the frustration of trying to recreate it but always ending up with the same outcome. The lyrics also question whether the person being addressed still sings the joyful and lively "frevo axé" music in silence, which keeps the singer awake at night. There is a hint that perhaps the person has lost faith in what was once promised, and the two haven't even spoken to each other.


The singer then talks about walking in an empty square, waiting for the sun to set and seeing the light fade behind the poet's hand. They emphasize that their love won't disappear and reminisce about the place where they found each other. The mention of stars starting to shine in the night sky of the "black bay" symbolizes hope and longing. The singer expresses a strong desire for the person they are singing to be present with them.


Overall, these lyrics are filled with nostalgia, longing, and a yearning to recreate a past moment of joy and connection. The singer questions the current state of their relationship and expresses a deep longing for the person to be by their side.
