Miragem
Xênia França Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te domina
Queima, arde, engana
Enlouquece sim
Às vezes traumas
Tantos dramas
Noites sem dormir
Pensamentos sem fim
É uma miragem fascinante
Dá asa a imaginação
É impetuosa em si
Desassossego
Molha feito calor do sol
Em mim
Mesmo assim o meu coração
Sem razão
Se deixa seduzir
E se entregar
Eu quero mais um amor real
E que seja em paz
