"Luz dos Olhos" was written by Reis under the request of Jorge Davidson, Sony's artistic director at that time, intending to use it on Cidade Negra's fourth album O Erê. The lyrics talk about seeing or not seeing a loved one, either literally or due to the physical absence of the person, and it also deals with Reis's strong myopia.[1]
