Mensagem de Amor
Leo Jaime Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Os livros na estante já não têm mais tanta importância
Do muito que eu li, do pouco que sei
Nada me resta

A não ser a vontade de te encontrar
O motivo eu já nem sei
Nem que seja só para estar ao seu lado
Só pra ler no seu rosto
Uma mensagem de amor

À noite eu me deito,
Então escuto a mensagem no ar
Tambores rufando
Eu já não tenho nada pra te dar

No céu estrelado eu me perco
Com os pés na terra
Vagando entre os astros
Nada me move nem me faz parar

A não ser a vontade de te encontrar
O motivo eu já nem sei
Nem que seja só para estar ao seu lado




Só pra ler no seu rosto
Uma mensagem de amor

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Léo Jaime's Mensagem de Amor reveal the feeling of longing and the search for love. The first stanza suggests that the books in the shelf, which previously held great importance, are now meaningless. The lead singer reflects on how much he has read and how little he knows, but in the end, he feels as if nothing remains. However, the one thing he is still driven by is his desire to find the person he loves. He admits that he no longer understands the reason for his search, but it is enough for him to just be with his beloved and read the message of love on their face.


The second stanza is a continuation of the same feeling, and the imagery used is intensely evocative. The singer listens to the message of love in the air, with the sound of drums in the background. He feels like he has nothing to give to the person he longs for, but the night sky, with its starry expanse, becomes his refuge. He allows himself to get lost in it, while still rooted to the earth, and he even wanders among the stars. Even in this state, the only thing that moves him is the urge to find his beloved, again without any reason behind it.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of helplessness in the face of love, the feeling that it is the only worthwhile pursuit, even as the reason for it remains elusive.
