Songs that say what you feel
but never knew how to say.

About the Artist
A voice that carries what the heart can't bear
Vini Amaral is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, and writer who grew up listening to the melodic rock of the 80s — that era when songs had soul, pianos bled emotion, and voices didn't have to be perfect to break your heart.
With influences from Kayt West, Eros Ramazzotti, and Bryan Adams, Vini has created a repertoire that speaks to what everyone feels but few can say: the absence of someone who left and left everything exactly as it was.
At the piano, in a suit, with a white handkerchief in his pocket — he doesn't perform pain. He lives it in front of you.
“The right music comes before the words.
It already knows what you can't say yet.”

Lyrics
The Words
Each line was written to touch any heart
Her coat still hangs beside the door
The cup she touched I have not moved
Somebody used to breathe in here
Now nobody sleeps and nobody moves
[Chorus]
Somebody hold the pieces of me tonight
Anybody — God just make this feel right
Everybody sees a man who is standing strong
But nobody knows I have been gone so long
Nobody knows... nobody knows...
She was somebody
And now there is nobody home
[Bridge]
If anybody finds her tell her this
Somebody still keeps every note she kissed
Everybody moves on yes I know that is true
But nobody moves on when the somebody was you
The cup she touched I have not moved
Somebody used to breathe in here
Now nobody sleeps and nobody moves
Somebody hold the pieces of me tonight
Anybody — God just make this feel right
Everybody sees a man who is standing strong
But nobody knows I have been gone so long
Nobody knows... nobody knows...
She was somebody
And now there is nobody home
There is a box beneath my bed
Full of paper, full of words she said
Every letter, every folded line
Every moment frozen back in time
Somebody wrote my name in red
Nobody writes like that when love is dead
Anybody else would throw this all away
But everybody knows I made her stay
[Chorus]
Paper hearts do not burn
Paper hearts just fade
Somebody teach me what
Nobody else has said
Everybody leaves a mark
Anybody feels the scar
But nobody — nobody
Keeps paper hearts like ours
Full of paper, full of words she said
Every letter, every folded line
Every moment frozen back in time
Somebody wrote my name in red
Nobody writes like that when love is dead
Anybody else would throw this all away
But everybody knows I made her stay
Paper hearts do not burn
Paper hearts just fade
Somebody teach me what
Nobody else has said
The lights were low the room was warm
Somebody played our song before the storm
Everybody swayed and held someone near
Nobody knew that night would disappear
She put her head against my chest
Anybody watching knew that we were blessed
[Chorus]
The last slow dance
Somebody hold me like she did that night
The last slow dance
Nobody warned me that the song would die
Everybody in the room had somebody
But nobody had what we had in that light
The last slow dance
Was the last time I held somebody right
Somebody played our song before the storm
Everybody swayed and held someone near
Nobody knew that night would disappear
She put her head against my chest
Anybody watching knew that we were blessed
The last slow dance
Somebody hold me like she did that night
The last slow dance
Nobody warned me that the song would die
I found a box inside a closet door
Somebody left these photographs before
Everybody smiling — frozen 1983
Nobody knew what time was going to be
[Chorus]
Old photographs
Somebody smiling does not know the end
Old photographs
Nobody told us love could break and bend
Everybody in these pictures looks so sure
But nobody — nobody
Looks like that anymore
[Outro]
She is still smiling...
Nobody fades...
Nobody...
Somebody left these photographs before
Everybody smiling — frozen 1983
Nobody knew what time was going to be
Old photographs
Somebody smiling does not know the end
Old photographs
Nobody told us love could break and bend
Everybody in these pictures looks so sure
But nobody — nobody
Looks like that anymore
Every year when skies turn grey
Somebody takes my breath away
Nobody has to say the date — I know
Everybody leaves when cold winds blow
[Chorus]
November rain
Somebody bring the summer back again
November rain
Nobody told me cold could cause this pain
Everybody has a season they can not face
But nobody — nobody
Has a November like this place
Nobody has a November like her face
Somebody takes my breath away
Nobody has to say the date — I know
Everybody leaves when cold winds blow
November rain
Somebody bring the summer back again
November rain
Nobody told me cold could cause this pain
Everybody has a season they can not face
But nobody — nobody
Has a November like this place
I drove three hours just to see the street
Somebody told me closure is what you need
Everybody said the past stays in the past
But nobody heals without going back at last
[Chorus]
The road back home
Somebody finally found the way through pain
The road back home
Nobody walks it twice — not just the same
Everybody has a place they have to leave behind
But nobody — nobody
Leaves the love behind
[Outro]
The road back home...
Somebody...
Home...
Somebody told me closure is what you need
Everybody said the past stays in the past
But nobody heals without going back at last
The road back home
Somebody finally found the way through pain
The road back home
Nobody walks it twice — not just the same
Everybody has a place they have to leave behind
But nobody — nobody
Leaves the love behind
