Maria Joana (part. Nuno Ribeiro e Calema)

And it turned!

I came from the north straight to Lisbon
Chasing a dream that I'm not sure if it flies
As much as we used to fly under the sheets

The 'francesinha' no longer has spice
And that reminds me of the moments
When you used to bite my lips after love

I don't know if I'll endure
The time I'll stay here
Because you're not
Because you're not here

The tears will dry, but the longing will remain
In my chest calling

Maria Joana
Maria Joana
Catch the first bus
Come stay by my side forever

My mother never saw me leave
But every son flies one day
Longing, longing
Mom, take care of her for me

Tell me why you're not here
Maria, without you I'm lost
Longing, longing
Maria, I want to see you

I don't know if I'll endure
The time I'll stay here
Because the longing tightens my chest and hurts too much

The tears will dry
But the longing will remain
In my chest calling

Maria Joana
Maria Joana
Catch the first bus
Come stay by my side forever

Maria, Maria, Maria

How many tears I cried
How many nights I didn't sleep
Every drop I shed
Formed a river that leads me to you

Maria Joana
Maria Joana
Catch the first bus
Come stay by my side forever

Maria, Maria, Maria
How many tears I cried
