Insensatez
- Stan Getz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Coração mais sem cuidado
Fez chorar de dor
O seu amor
Um amor tão delicado
Ah, porque você foi fraco assim
Assim tão desalmado
Ah, meu coração que nunca amou
Vai meu coração ouve a razão
Usa só sinceridade
Quem semeia vento, diz a razão
Colhe sempre tempestade
Vai, meu coração pede perdão
Perdão apaixonado
Vai porque quem não
Pede perdão
Não é nunca perdoado
The song "Insensatez" by Stan Getz is a masterful piece that showcases the bittersweet emotions of heartbreak and the pain that ensues. The lyrics talk about the insensitivity of someone towards their lover, leaving their heart in a state of despair and heartache. The words "A insensatez que você fez" mean "The insensibility that you caused" and refers to the careless and cruel actions of the person towards their loved ones. The singer describes how this insensibility caused his heart to be without care, and he weeps in pain for his delicate love.
The lyrics then take a turn to address the person who caused this pain. The singer asks why the person was so weak and heartless towards him, making him experience such pain. He remarks that his heart has never loved before, and therefore, it does not deserve to be loved.
