INTRO Maputo... Boa noite... Ndzi famba... VERSE 1 Streetlights dancing On the ocean side Every window Keeps another life Calçada quente Depois do sol Tonight the city Feels beautiful Nobody rushes Nobody hides The moon arrives With open eyes PRE Devagar... Sinto o vento Tudo muda Sem fazer barulho HOOK Maputo Blue Ndzi ta fika Ocean calling Take me through Maputo Blue Sem medo Every new night Feels brand new VERSE 2 Old cafés Still remember names Young guitars Still chasing flames Tomorrow waits But not tonight Tonight belongs To city lights Every heartbeat Finds its way Nothing stolen Everything stays BRIDGE Blue... Ocean... Wind... Again... FINAL HOOK Maputo Blue Ndzi ta fika Ocean calling Take me through Maputo Blue Sem medo Every new night Feels brand new OUTRO Boa noite... Maputo...
