Song by R. Passos / F. De Oliveira

lyrics

Verão
(R. Passos / F. De Oliveira)

Cinco pranchas deslizam nas ondas
E os surfistas parecem voar.
Tem veleiros nos verdes ao longe
E o nascente promete um luar.

Gaivotas disparam em seta
Num mergulho sem freio no azul.
E eu me sinto assim como o poeta.
Água viva dos mares do sul, do sul...

Tem conversas e risos nos bares
E lilases na tarde que finda.
Passam ônibus cheios de olhares
E um desejo de novo me anima.

Eu desejo o fervor de outros tempos
E a beleza dos dias de então...
Chove tanto nos meus sentimentos
E é verão, verão, verão.
