Se Ela Quisesse
Toquinho & Vinicius de Moraes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A questo punto
Stiamo tanto bene io e te
Che non ha senso
Tirar fuori i come ed i perché
Cerchiamo insieme

Tutto il bello della vita
In un momento
Che non scappi tra le dita
E dimmi ancora

Tutto quello che mi aspetto già
Che il tempo insiste
Perché esiste il tempo che verrà
A questo punto

Buonanotte all'incertezza
Ai problemi all'amarezza
Sento il carnevale entrare in me
E sento crescere la voglia, la pazzia





L'incoscienza e l'allegria
Di morir d'amore insieme a te
