I stopped, threw myself on the couch
When love appears, we even forget
That feeling was there
I went to the kitchen, saw I was alone there
Opened the fridge so I could think
I wasn't even thirsty, but I opened a can
That a gorgeous guy appeared on the street
He called me his and took me to dinner
It was all so pretty, felt like a dream
With no date or time to end
Hey, girl, can you teach me
To be happy and make you happy
With the ease you make your rhyme?
Hey, girl, can you teach me
To have simplicity, with the wit
Of a woman with a girl's soul?
And he stopped, got lost in a gaze
He grabbed my hand, said the show would go on
He took me to the car, tossed his cigarette away
Said he'd just quit smoking
Yeah, his new addiction was me
And he even got lost on the way to where he was taking me
But soon the car stopped, and he said, "We're here"
He opened the door and asked me to dance
He took me to the samba, everything planned
The bar was packed and he knew how to win me over
They played Mart'nália, Martinho, Zeca Pagodinho
Raça Negra and Só Pra Contrariar
Suddenly we stay to the sound of Maria Rita
It was already past 3 a.m. and I was there, happy as can be
He danced with me, lover and friend
He leaned to my ear and said
Hey, girl, can you teach me
To be happy and make you happy
With the ease you make your rhyme?
Hey, girl, can you teach me
To have simplicity, with the wit
Of a woman with a girl's soul?
