Prece
Claudia Leitte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A saudade me matando
Você veio me dizer
Que não está mais me amando
Tô morando num vazio
E pago condomínio à solidão
Sonho com teu perdão
Quando você se achou
Eu me perdi
Ai, eu não suporto essa tristeza aqui em mim
Tive tempos ruins
Espero um tempo bom
Felicidade enfim
É ruim eu deixar de ter
Meu corpo explorado
Um beijo molhado
Teu rosto colado
Eu sem você
É ruim eu deixar de ter
Meu corpo explorado
Um beijo molhado
Teu rosto colado
Eu sem você
Me deixei guiar
Por que você foi me levar?
E agora o que ficou?
Sozinho estou
É ruim eu deixar de ter
Meu corpo explorado
Teu rosto colado
Um beijo molhado
Eu sem você
É ruim eu deixar de ter
Meu corpo explorado
Um beijo molhado
Teu rosto colado
Eu sem você
The song "Prece" by Claudia Leitte deals with the theme of heartbreak and unrequited love. The lyrics describe the singer's emotions as they face the end of a relationship. The first verse expresses their desperation and madness as they struggle with the pain of missing their loved one. The second verse speaks to the emptiness they feel, paying for their solitude like it's rent.
The chorus speaks to the physical and emotional connection they had with their partner, which they now miss. They wish for forgiveness but are stuck in a limbo of longing. The bridge describes how the singer lost themselves in the relationship and now find themselves alone, feeling the emptiness of what was lost.
Overall, the song captures the vulnerability and pain of losing someone you love and not being able to let go of what once was. The Portuguese words of "Prece" mean "Prayer" in English, and perhaps the song serves as an outlet for the singer to pray for strength to move on.

Tô a beira da loucura
I'm about to go crazy with sadness
A saudade me matando
Feeling the absence of you is killing me
Você veio me dizer
You came to tell me
Que não está mais me amando
That you no longer love me
Tô morando num vazio
I'm living in an emptiness
E pago condomínio à solidão
And I'm paying rent to loneliness
Sonho com teu perdão
I dream of your forgiveness
Quando você se achou
When you found yourself
Eu me perdi
I got lost
Ai, eu não suporto essa tristeza aqui em mim
Oh, I can't bear this sadness inside me
Tive tempos ruins
I had bad times
Espero um tempo bom
I hope for a good time
Felicidade enfim
Happiness at last
É ruim eu deixar de ter
It's hard for me to no longer have
Meu corpo explorado
My body explored
Um beijo molhado
A wet kiss
Teu rosto colado
Your face close to mine
Eu sem você
Me without you
Me deixei guiar
I let myself be guided
Por que você foi me levar?
Why did you take me there?
E agora o que ficou?
And now what's left?
Sozinho estou
I'm alone
