Com Um Brilhozinho Nos Olhos

With a Little Sparkle in the Eyes

With a little sparkle in the eyes
And the flared skirt
You opened wide the bar door
You had your hair down to your shoulders
Walking back and forth
Like the waves of the sea
I know those eyes so well
And they never deceive me
What happened, tell me
Is that today I made a friend
And there's nothing more precious in the world
Is that today I made a friend
And there's nothing more precious in the world

With a little sparkle in the eyes
We got in the car
Way ahead, way ahead of the game
In other words, we made promises
Exchanged pictures
Made plans together
We changed clothes, we changed bodies
We exchanged kisses, it's so good, so good
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We played guitars
At least judging by the sound
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We played guitars
At least judging by the sound

And what did he say?
And what did he say?
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Today felt like too little
Pass me a little more
I'm almost going crazy
Today felt like so much
Today felt like so much
Today felt like so much
Today felt like so much
So
Today felt like too little

With a little sparkle in the eyes
We closed the blinds
Turned on the radio
Lit the usual
Church candle
Turned off the phone
And look, it's hard to count
But I know you know
What you know that I know
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We stood still
After what I didn't tell you
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We stood still
After what I didn't tell you

With a little sparkle in the eyes
We said who knows
Everything that came to mind
Like: you're number one
I give you twenty points
You're a thirteen in the lottery
And out of the blue
We had a drink
We made the four and painted the seven
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We remained motionless
Having a tête-à-tête
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We remained motionless
Having a tête-à-tête

And with a little sparkle in the eyes
We tried to find out
Beyond what was greatly loved
Who we were
Who we wanted to be
And what hopes
Life stole from us
And I looked at him from afar
And I looked at him up close
Because those who don't see faces
Don't see hearts
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
I kept a friend
Which is worth millions
And with a little sparkle in the eyes
I kept a friend
Which is worth millions
