about

O EP finda com Love Song XXI, uma canção constituída por 4 fotografias em fases diferentes de uma relação amorosa, desde a corte até à sua desagregação, cantada pelo Tó e pela Maria João.
O Tó-Bé brinca aos contratempos enquanto ajuda nas harmonias, o Berto faz toda a ligação entre a parte rítmica e melódica e o João Nuno torna o som bem mais rechonchudo entre as harmonias das guitarras.

lyrics

It could have been the shy smile
It could have been the wine
It could have been the perfume
It could have been the pick-up line

“Is it just fate”,
I do believe,
“That makes us wait
To kiss like thieves
When all the others leave?”

It could have been the talking
It could have been the tongue
It could have been the lyrics
It could have been our theme song.

“Is it just faith”,
I do recall,
“That makes our hate
And fears grow small
When all the others fall?”


“I’ll love you anyhow”
“Where do we go to now?”

It could have been the comfort
It could have been the nights
It could have been the devil
It could have been the party lights

“Is it too late”,
I truly fear,
“And I’ll awake
You’ve disappeared
Like all others once here?”.

“Isn’t it great”,
I stare the floor,
“That my soul-mate
Became a bore
Like all others before?”

So what was it all for?
Yet we still come back for more.
