PORTUGESE RAPAZ

I’m the one

You call

When the moon is high

And you

Want party night.

I’m that shiver

In your spine

When I look at you

At the beach restaurant.

I’ve seen you

Making photos

In ALBUFEIRA.

I’ve seen you

Shoe shopping in FARO

And you looked gorgeous to me.

I’m the one

Who sold you ice-cream

On a sunny beach

In ALGARVE.

I’m a kind of brown kid

Toasted by MINHO Sun

And crazy like

A wild cat

In O’PORTO nights

Making noise

In a RIBEIRA Pub.

I’m that old Man

Who kissed your hands

When you bought me

Flowers in BAIRRO ALTO.

And when you were starving at GERÊS,

Up there in the NORTH,

I served you

The meal of your life.

Yeah, you saw me around

When you were in BARCELOS

Staring at the funny pottery

And I was there when

You needed a guide in COIMBRA

Maybe I’m just the kid next door…

I’m a Dolphin

I’m the PORTUGESE Boy

Nearby

Close to you

When you need.

I’m your friend…

I’m a RAPAZ PORTUGUÊS!
