Leila Pinheiro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Encontra um coração também cansado de sofrer
É tempo de se pensar,
Que o amor pode de repente chegar
Quando existe alguém que tem saudade de alguém
E esse outro alguém não entender
Deixe esse novo amor chegar,
Mesmo que depois seja imprescindível chorar
Nas coisas do amor que ninguém pode explicar
Vem nós dois vamos tentar,
Só um novo amor
Pode a saudade apagar.
The lyrics of Leila Pinheiro's song Caminhos Cruzados are about two people who have been hurt by love and are tired of suffering. They meet each other and contemplate the idea that love may suddenly come when two hearts that are tired of pain meet. The song talks about the importance of letting love come into one's life even if it means that there might be tears shed later on. The singer acknowledges that love is something that cannot be explained and that sometimes it's foolish to try to reason it out.
The lyrics also suggest that sometimes it's necessary to let go of the past and give new love a chance to flourish. The singer says "Que tola fui eu que em vão tentei raciocinar/Nas coisas do amor que ninguém pode explicar" (How foolish was I to try in vain to reason/In matters of love that no one can explain). The chorus emphasizes the idea that a new love can wipe away the pain of longing for someone else. The lyrics encourage the two to try a new love and give it a chance.
Overall, the lyrics of Caminhos Cruzados suggest that love is unpredictable and that sometimes it's necessary to take a chance and let love come into our lives. The message is hopeful and suggests that even though love can be painful, it's worth it to try again.
