Agua de Beber
Ana Lucia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu quis amar mais tive medo
E quis salvar meu coração
Mas o amor sabe um segredo
O medo pode matar o seu coração

Água de beber
Água de beber camará
Água de beber
Água de beber camará

Eu nunca fiz coisa tão certa
Entrei pra escola do perdão
A minha casa vive aberta
Abri todas as portas do coração

Água de beber
Água de beber camará
Água de beber
Água de beber camará

Eu sempre tive uma certeza
Que só me deu desilusão
É que o amor é uma tristeza
Muita mágoa demais para um coração

Água de beber
Água de beber camará




Água de beber
Água de beber camará

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ana Lucia's song "Agua De Beber" speak to the feelings of fear, love, and forgiveness. The opening lines, "Eu quis amar mais tive medo" ("I wanted to love but was afraid"), reveal a hesitation to fully give oneself over to love. The following line, "E quis salvar meu coração" ("And I wanted to save my heart"), suggests a reluctance to let oneself be vulnerable and potentially hurt in love. However, the next line offers a secret: "O amor sabe um segredo/O medo pode matar o seu coração" ("Love knows a secret/Fear can kill your heart"). Thus, the lyrics advise that one must take risks and allow themselves to love, even if there is fear involved.


The chorus of the song, "Água de beber/Água de beber camará," is a repetition of the phrase "water to drink" in Portuguese. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for necessary sustenance or nourishment, suggesting that love is something that is needed in life, much like water.
