1. Esse vazio que nada enche

Nem a lembranca de voce...
Esse vazio que so se enche
Com a ausencia de voce...

2. Se descesses ao fundo
 (Sung text)

Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Se descesses ao fundo de minha tirsteza
Ao fundo ainda nao chegarias,
Por isso se me vires rir, nao creias, nao te iludas.
Ha miragens, por certo, no areal sem fim.

3. Para que o ceu nao me tonteie
 (Sung text)

Language: Portuguese (Português) 
Para que o ceu nao me tonteie
Voce poe a mao sobre os meus olhos.
Mas a estrela que me comove Amazonas,
Eu a tenho dentro de mim
Ao alcance dos olhos fechados.
