Bica by Vesu

Here we are now in Bica
Arranging thoughts in my head
Belem, Alfama, the Mercado
Finally here in Bica

Having trouble finding a home
Dreams of Portland, the desert, and you know
But time to be here now, on St. Anthony‘s day
There were mermaids atop the calçada

Bica, I don’t want to be anywhere else
Let it go, forget now

People were out celebrating
Old rituals had begun, plans were made
Young ladies looking for a suitor,
The day arrived, it had come at last

Bica, the spirit here was so alive
Seize the day, seize the night
Please be here, by my side

On the plane home, in my ears
A song that I know upsets me deeply
And I know it got you too
What a funny time we’re living through

Bica, I’ve got questions, have you got the answers?
With it all in front of me
