Sentimental
Los Hermanos猀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

O quanto eu te falei
Que isso vai mudar
Motivo eu nunca dei
Você me avisar, me ensinar
Falar do que foi pra você
Não vai me livrar de viver

Quem é mais sentimental que eu?
Eu disse e nem assim se pôde evitar

De tanto eu te falar
Você subverteu o que era um sentimento e assim
Fez dele razão pra se perder
No abismo que é pensar e sentir

Ela é mais sentimental que eu
Então fica bem
Se eu sofro um pouco mais

Eu só aceito a condição de ter você só pra mim
Eu sei, não é assim, mas deixa




Eu só aceito a condição de ter você só pra mim
Eu sei, não é assim, mas deixa eu fingir e rir

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Los Hermanos' song "Sentimental" explore the intricate nature of emotions and how they can be both a source of comfort and pain. The singer of the song speaks directly to their lover, discussing how they have been warned about the inevitable changes that will come in their relationship. However, the singer struggles to come to terms with these changes and tries to hold onto what they have, even if it means feeling more sentimental than their partner. The chorus of the song reveals the singer's insecurity, as they ask, "who is more sentimental than I am?"


As the song progresses, the singer reflects on the complexities of emotions and how they can sometimes become overwhelming. They warn their partner that by subverting their emotions, they risk getting lost in the abyss of their thoughts and feelings. However, despite the singer's warnings, they continue to accept the "condition" of having their lover exclusively. The final lines of the song reveal the singer's inner turmoil as they acknowledge that this may not be a healthy way to approach their relationship, but they choose to ignore it and continue to "pretend and laugh."

I used to mess around
But I never let it get into me
'Cause I didn't take you serious baby
Now to be without your love
Only makes me realize
What I could've had in you honey
Now that you're gone (oooooooh ooooh ooooh)
I want you more
I said it slapped me in my face
And then my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental
I miss you day and night, seems like you're still here
I'd rather be together honey
Now that I'm lost for words
I can't believe I'm on my own
I should've been looking at love
Now that you're gone
I want you (oooh ooh oooh)
I said it slapped me on my face
And now my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental
Now that you're gone I want you more
I said it slapped me on my face
And then my friends don't understand
Because I had the chance
I don't know why
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental
I'm going crazy alone in a daze
And my heart ain't the same
And I don't even think unless I think about you
That's the only time I get sentimental
That's the reason why baby
I can't let go of you
Yeah, that's the only time I get sentimental

No half naked singer, no soft porn dance moves, no auto tune, just real talent in this video.
