	Lyrics IV. Saudade (“Soul” song) Carioca boy, epithets would have to be invented to approximate your beauty. When I wake up these mornings I discover that even my pinkie toes sing your name, and my hairy zones still hold the warmth of your mouth. Carioca boy, when I go out on the balcony these mornings ordinary flowers surprise me: the magenta petals of the begonias open like generous hands, whose petals alone resemble chalices sculpted in gold edged with precious stones. Carioca boy, your are an unknown elixir, you feed me forbidden tidbits; it is not love that flows between us, but lava. In you I ride the cutting edge of the wave, I let myself be dragged along by your swells, I dive down and look around undiscovered depths; by touching you I enter paradise. All of this happens to me, Carioca boy, when your sensual “soul” sets my mouth on fire.
