lyrics

Não foste sempre assim
Não o eras antes desta canção
Muito antes de que a cor tivesse um nome
Ou o tempo tivesse o tempo dentro dele
À espera de não ser só medida de quem não sente
De quem cego segue somente a sua mente
De quem chega e quer e mais quer, tudo quer
De quem toca e retoca, de quem mexe, altera
Conquista e se enquista dentro teu
E te consome lentamente
Lamentavelmente não tão lentamente quanto dizem por aí

É só mais um verão quente
É só mais um verão quente
É só mais um verão quente
É só mais um bosque a arder

É só mais um verão quente
Mais um pólo a derreter
É só mais um verão quente
É só mais uma casa a arder
É só mais um verão
É só mais uma selva a arder
É só mais um verão quente
É só mais um bosque a arder
