Quero contar pra São Paulo

I've tried to understand the mysteries
God, the world, and the names of things
And none of that holds as many secrets as you do
I've seen the sky and decorated stained glass
The synchronized dance of fish in the water
Strangely, you remain more beautiful than those

I wanna live a love that poets envy
I wanna die in your eyes, your lips, your ears
Swear promises to saints we'll never keep
I wanna tell São Paulo that I love you

I've tasted the salt of sweat and tears
Traded my honey sauce for pepper
And still, my tongue prefers your taste
And on my face, it's clear as a plea
Won't you be mine?
I've never been as happy as I am now

I wanna live a love that poets envy
I wanna die in your eyes, your lips, your ears
Swear promises to saints we'll never keep
I wanna tell São Paulo that I love you

To hold in my hands the power to make you dream
Higher, to imagine a flawless plan for us (for us), for us

I wanna live a love that poets envy
I wanna die in your eyes, your lips, your ears
Swear promises to saints we'll never keep
I wanna tell São Paulo that I love you (that I love you)
I love you (I love you)
I love you (I love you)
I love you, love you, love you
