[Verse 1]
You left your blue cup by the window
The rain came in before the dawn
I kept your note beneath the sugar
Though every word has faded on
[Pre-Chorus]
And when the old clock marks the hour
I still turn toward the door
[Chorus]
Come back and sit beside me
Let the quiet lose its hold
This little room remembers
All the tender things we told
Come back, my heart is waiting
With your place still warm and true
The days may change their colors
But I keep a light for you
[Verse 2]
Your Sunday dress is in the wardrobe
A paper flower in its seam
I touch the sleeve and hear you laughing
Like a voice inside a dream
[Pre-Chorus]
If you can hear me from wherever
Know I’m here as before
[Chorus]
Come back and sit beside me
Let the quiet lose its hold
This little room remembers
All the tender things we told
Come back, my heart is waiting
With your place still warm and true
The days may change their colors
But I keep a light for you
[Outro]
I keep a light for you
You left your blue cup by the window
The rain came in before the dawn
I kept your note beneath the sugar
Though every word has faded on
[Pre-Chorus]
And when the old clock marks the hour
I still turn toward the door
[Chorus]
Come back and sit beside me
Let the quiet lose its hold
This little room remembers
All the tender things we told
Come back, my heart is waiting
With your place still warm and true
The days may change their colors
But I keep a light for you
[Verse 2]
Your Sunday dress is in the wardrobe
A paper flower in its seam
I touch the sleeve and hear you laughing
Like a voice inside a dream
[Pre-Chorus]
If you can hear me from wherever
Know I’m here as before
[Chorus]
Come back and sit beside me
Let the quiet lose its hold
This little room remembers
All the tender things we told
Come back, my heart is waiting
With your place still warm and true
The days may change their colors
But I keep a light for you
[Outro]
I keep a light for you
Musikstil
Brazilian brega romântico, swaying midtempo groove with a gentle two-step pulse, sentimental keyboard melody answered by clean electric guitar fills, rounded bass and restrained hand percussion; intimate expressive male lead vocal with a dramatic lift into a memorable, singable chorus; arrangement opens with a brief keyboard motif, builds through the verses, widens in the chorus with soft backing harmonies, then closes on a lingering vocal phrase; warm polished mix with clear lyrics and a slightly nostalgic feel.
