about

This is a song about the possibilities of love.

"What if love
Spreads its wings and flies above us?
I will be happy
Here, today and tomorrow
Here, so close to you."

lyrics

AQUI TÃO PERTO DE TI
music and lyrics by Múcio Sá

Perdida nas janelas da alma
Olho as cidades sem tempo
Cenários de vidas imaginadas
Distantes do trabalho intenso

Mundos no tempo imaginado
Perdidos à entrada do labirinto
No meio da vastidão a poesia
De um dia a mais a viver

Janelas da alma, sol do meio-dia
Riquezas de quem não tem o que fazer
Cenários de vidas imaginadas
Frestas de luz ao amanhecer

E se o amor
Bate as asas e voa sobre nós
Eu vou ser feliz
Aqui, amanhã e depois

E se o amor
Bate as asas e voa sobre nós
Eu vou ser feliz
Aqui, tão perto de ti
