Final
Capitão Fausto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Voltamos ao passado
Porque nada em nós mudou
Contigo ao lado já nem sei qual foi o vento
Qual foi o pensamento
Que a nossa paz levou
Cada vez que era avistada
Apareceu toda afetada
Já cansada, sem rigor
'Tava escondida desde então
Pra lhe ensinar outra versão
Eu sempre disse a mesma coisa
Se eu não ficar contigo é tudo em vão
Depois do tempo que passei mais afastado
Voltamos ao passado
Porque nada em nós mudou
Contigo ao lado já nem sei qual foi o vento
Qual foi o pensamento
Que a nossa paz levou
Cada vez que era avistada
Dissipava-se em vapor
Apareceu toda afetada
Já cansada, sem rigor
'Tava escondida desde então
Pra me ensinar outra versão
Eu sempre disse a mesma coisa
Se eu não ficar contigo é tudo em vão
The lyrics of Capitão Fausto's song "Final" portray a sense of nostalgia and reflection on a past relationship. The singer reflects on a period of time when they were more distant from the person they are addressing in the song. Despite this distance, they find themselves returning to the past, realizing that nothing between them has truly changed. The mention of being by the person's side and the uncertainty of which direction the wind blew or what thoughts prevailed alludes to a sense of confusion and lack of clarity in their relationship.
The lines "Cada vez que era avistada / Dissipava-se em vapor" suggest that each time they catch a glimpse of the person, it fades away like vapor, hinting at a fleeting and ephemeral connection. The person's appearance is described as "toda afetada / Já cansada, sem rigor," indicating a sense of weariness and lack of precision in their interactions. It seems as though both parties are feeling the weight of time and experiences on their relationship.
The repetition of the lines "Eu sempre disse a mesma coisa / Se eu não ficar contigo é tudo em vão" reinforces the sentiment that the singer believes their existence is meaningless without this person by their side. It conveys a deep emotional dependency and attachment to the other person. The idea that the singer's world feels incomplete without the presence of the person they are addressing adds a sense of urgency and desperation to the lyrics.
Overall, the lyrics of "Final" by Capitão Fausto capture a complex mix of emotions including longing, regret, and a deep desire for connection. The cyclical nature of returning to the past, the fleeting moments of interaction, and the intense emotional attachment portrayed in the song all contribute to a poignant narrative about the intricacies of human relationships and the impact they have on our sense of self and purpose.

Depois do tempo que passei mais afastado
After the time I spent more distant
Voltamos ao passado
We went back to the past
Porque nada em nós mudou
Because nothing has changed in us
Contigo ao lado já nem sei qual foi o vento
By your side, I no longer know which was the wind
Qual foi o pensamento
What was the thought
Que a nossa paz levou
That took our peace away
Cada vez que era avistada
Every time she was seen
Dissipava-se em vapor
She dissipated into vapor
Apareceu toda afetada
She appeared all affected
Já cansada, sem rigor
Already tired, without rigor
'Tava escondida desde então
She was hidden since then
Pra lhe ensinar outra versão
To teach you another version
Eu sempre disse a mesma coisa
I always said the same thing
Se eu não ficar contigo é tudo em vão
If I don't stay with you, everything is in vain
