Elis Regina

Lyrics Essa mulher Elis Regina

 1.023

Essa mulher


De manhã cedo essa senhora se conforma
Bota mesa, tira o pó, lava a roupa,seca os olhos
Ah, como essa santa não se esquece
De pedir pelas mulheres, pelos filhos, pelo pão
Depois sorri, meio sem graca e abraca
Aquele homeme, aquele mundo
Que a faz assim feliz
De tardezinha essa menina se namora
Se enfeita, se decora, sabe tudo, não faz mal
Ah, como essa coisa é tão bonita
Ser cantora, ser artista, isso tudo é muito bom!
E chora tanto de prazer e de agonia
De algum dia, qualquer dia entender de ser feliz
De madrugada essa mulher faz tanto estrago
Tira a roupa, faz a cama, vira a mesa, seca o bar
Ah, como essa louca se esquece
Quantos homens enlouquece nessa boca, nesse chão
Depois parece que acha graca e agradece
Ao destino aquilo tudo que a faz tão infeliz
Essa menina, essa mulher, essa senhora
Em que esbarro a toda hora no espelho casual
É feita de sombra e tanta luz
De tanta lama e tanta cruz
Que acha tudo natural

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics ESSA MULHER of ELIS REGINA is also present in the album Icollection (2012)
