Ten
c(x) Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tu és a criatura mais linda
Que os meus olhos já viram
Tu tens a boca mais linda
Que a minha boca beijou

São meus os teus lábios, estes lábios
Que os meus desejos mataram
São minhas tuas mãos, estas mãos

Que as minhas mãos afagaram

Sou louco por ti, eu sofro por ti
Te amo em segredo
Adoro teu corpo divino, que pelas mãos do destino
À mim tu viestes

Tenho ciúme do sol
Do luar e do mar

Tenho ciúme de tudo
Tenho ciúme até da roupa que tu vestes
