“Sinais” feels like a midnight bike ride that turns into a sci-fi love story. Jão sings from the perspective of someone pedaling away from everyday life and straight into the unknown. Under a scorching night sky, he hears a mysterious “voice from above” and sees flashes of light that feel half-alien, half-divine. The further he gets from churches and safe places, the stronger the pull becomes. It is as if an invisible spaceship beams out invitations that he can’t resist, urging him to kneel, surrender, and be carried to a place where nothing else matters.
Those “signals” are Jão’s metaphor for irresistible attraction. He describes pupils dilating, electric skin, and a rush of cosmic fantasies swirling in open fields. The lover is never clearly defined — is it a person, a cosmic force, or both? — yet the desire is overwhelming and ecstatic. By mixing sensual imagery with outer-space references, the song turns a very human craving into an interstellar adventure, suggesting that real passion can feel as vast, mysterious, and thrilling as the universe itself.
