lyrics

Saia Preta
(M. Mendes / W. Dijkgraaf / A. van Popta)

Cadê você nesse compasso
Juro de indecisão
Entre tristeza e solidão

Sei que ando
Vagueando perdida
Sem rumo e direcção
Sabendo que não encontro você
Nessa minha saia preta
Preta na canção

Ela é preta no “I love you”
Com mistura do açaí,
Tem de tamanho a Lagoa
E do samba tem o Rio
Dançando em meu abraço
Que não chega nem aí

Preto é o solo sólido
Significado amarrado
Dessa saia preta
Saia que venta em minhas coxas
Sólidas, tristes de solidão
De não ter você aqui

Sou Maria em ti
Sou criança em mim
Sou mulher na saia preta
Saia que voa voando
Nessa canção de solidão
Que chama por ti
