“Xodó” is a warm Brazilian love note wrapped in gentle guitar chords. The title itself is key: in Portuguese, xodó is a sweet, affectionate word for someone who is your darling or favorite person. Throughout the song Clarissa admits that whenever saudade – that deep feeling of missing someone – knocks on her door, all she really wants is to be close to her special someone, little by little (“aos pouquinhos”). She once asked for “time to think,” but quickly realizes that her heart already knows the answer: being near this person simply feels better.
The lyrics follow her playful confession of love. She marvels at how naturally her thoughts drift to them and how easy life feels when they are around. Clarissa celebrates the moment she can finally say, “I am your xodó,” and promises steadfast support even “when the land turns into sea.” In short, the song is an affectionate ode to embracing love without hesitation, savoring every small step toward togetherness, and proudly wearing the label of someone’s cherished favorite.
