Nossa Promessa it's much harder to keep a promise, than a secret, that I know 'cause the hands of time will change things in ways you couldn't predict when you're young and innocent, so right until proven otherwise by those misty eyes staring over the waters dreaming of blue skies and distant isles, miles away but close to her heart like the charm on her necklace getting restless, how she laid by my side singing her favorite songs and lullabies had to meet by fate so didn't say good bye see you laters, better days in sight, we glorify life as we know it as an open book, blank pages turn to filled ones we took the scenic route to the train station let the clock pass with a conversation dear fellow traveller, drifting through the city like a seasonal wind from another city ooh she's an infectious groove once subjected to, be aroused and soothed a tone rings hollow if I can't forget, but... luck follows where the hope is kept so I set my goal and continue to step o que e que aconteceu con nossa promessa (whatever happened to our promise?) oh promete me (promise me), that you'll wake in bliss, even if it's not next to me everyday I miss that zone we caressed, yes very special like our first kiss when nothing else mattered but the sound of the lips mixed with the pound of the beat matched with the wave of the heat alleyways to the busy streets from the concrete hills to the hidden beach our songs will reach rest assured treat each hour like the last I can afford what's for sure best friends, we were made for and yet trade speech like lovers on opposite shores like somewhere between scared and sacred no lie, when I saw her naked in the dark, sucked my air out like a vacuum never before, pale shades of gray meant more to the lens hunger for real warmth evident the thunder, a shock to kill for, heaven sent now understand that my core yearns for raw touch my soul has a hole, like a donut that only she can fill and I can feel her vibe enter hit the tender spot soft like chords on a fender rhodes this year, I'll send her an electric rose so who knows, that's how it goes beyond columns and rows, x's and o's yesterday I ran into a mutual pal and he asked me, where in the world is she now? my fellow traveller, the girl was the city after she was gone, felt like any other city all that was left behind, asymmetry your guess is as good as mine no two will last long without trust, thrust to the gut much stronger than lust so I set my goal and continue to bust o que e que aconteceu con nossa promessa oh promete me, that you'll wake in bliss, even if it's not next to me everyday I miss that zone we caressed, yes very special like our first kiss when nothing else mattered but the sound of the lips mixed with the pound of the beat matched with the wave of the heat alleyways to the busy streets from the concrete hills to the hidden beach our songs will reach rest assured treat each hour like the last I can afford what's for sure best friends, we were made for and yet trade speech like lovers on opposite shores
