Lyrics

A Mermaid in Lisboa

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sing to disappear

Like the whole world's gone missing

Like a whisper in your ear

It's telling you where you're going

For the strangers that make it so sweet

To walk down your favourite street

Sing for the lost and found

That keeps you company while you wander around

Disappear

So no one can hear

Dance like the world's not watching

Somehow the streets, they know your name

Where the words grow on walls like wildflowers

And the air tastes like sugar from the concrete's fever

To the voice that helps you wander

You're happy to go blind

Staring at the Sun through someone else's eyes

Para os perdidos e achados

Para as memórias que teimam em voltar

Canta para quem quer saber

Mesmo quando o mundo não está a ver

Canto de uma saudade

Um murmúrio na tua pele

A melodia por onde vais

Disappear

So no one can hear

Dance like the world's not watching

Somehow the streets, they know your name

Dance like the world's not watching

Somehow the streets, they know your name
