==== Introducing the Song ====

Prepare to be swept away by the romantic tones of "Aquarela – Um Encontro em Veneza", a tender and cinematic ballad that turns fleeting moments into everlasting emotions. In this musical collaboration between Uli and lyricist Dani, a dream journey through Venice unfolds into a story painted with the softest strokes of fate, longing, and rediscovery.

“Aquarela” isn’t just a song. It’s an emotional painting that reminds us: true love moves like art—unexpected, vivid, and unforgettable.

==== Lyrics in Brazilian Portuguese ====

(Verse 1)
A tão esperada viagem chegou
E um grande sonho então se realizou
Lugar encantado, Veneza, cidade do amor
Brilhos nos olhos, tudo aqui hipnotizou

(Verse 2)
Entre os passeios, tudo era ideal
Até que algo fugiu do normal
Um vento leve soprou devagar
E o meu chapéu começou a voar

(Chorus)
Te vi ali tão bela
Alegrou a minha aquarela
Riso solto, olhos de mar
E o mundo inteiro parou pra olhar

(Verse 3)
Dias incríveis a caminhar
Com vinho, gôndolas e noites ao luar
Mas por escolha do destino cruel
Nem seu contato eu consegui salvar

(Interlude) 
Num mundo feito de esquinas
E passos apressados
Dois corações tocados pelo acaso agora se perdem no vazio da imensidão
Mas o destino não grita
Ele vira a página com calmaria
Em algum silêncio escondido
Um doce encontro ainda espera florescer...

(Chorus 2)
São lembranças inegáveis de um encontro entre duas almas
Como uma flor crescendo ao sol que o destino arrancou
Mas no fim da jornada encantada
Quando a tristeza já me alcançava
Lá no aeroporto a mágica brilhou
Eu te vi de novo, o tempo parou...

(Outro)
Era o destino dizendo oi
Dando ao amor mais uma chance
A viagem foi bela e você coloriu minha vida com sua aquarela
Com sua aquarela
Sua aquarela revela o amor. 

                          ==== Lyrics in English ====

(Verse 1)
The long-awaited trip arrived
And a great dream came true
An enchanted place, Venice, city of love
Sparkle in the eyes, everything here hypnotized

(Verse 2)
Between the walks, everything was ideal
Until something went wrong
A light wind blew slowly
And my hat began to fly

(Chorus)
I saw you there, so beautiful
Overjoyed up my watercolor
Loose laughter, sea-like eyes
And the whole world stopped to watch

(Verse 3)
Incredible days to walk
With wine, gondolas, and moonlit nights
But by the choice of cruel fate
I couldn't even save your phone number

(Interlude)
In a world made of corners
Hurried steps
Two hearts touched by chance now get lost in the emptiness of immensity
But fate doesn't shout
It turns the page calmly
In some hidden silence
A sweet encounter still waits to blossom...

(Chorus) 2)
They are undeniable memories of a meeting between two souls
Like a flower growing in the sun that fate plucked
But at the end of the enchanted journey
When sadness had already reached me
There at the airport the magical glow
I saw you again, time stood still...

(Outro)
It was fate saying hello
Giving love another chance
The journey was beautiful and you colored my life with your watercolor
With your watercolor
Your watercolor reveals the love.
