Até Parece
Marisa Monte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que não lembra
Que não sabe
O que passou
Não faz assim
Não faz de conta
Que não pensa
Pra nós dois
Olha pra mim
Não me torture
Não simule
Não me cure
De você
Deixa o amanhã dizer
Até parece
Que não lembra
Que não sabe
O que passou
Não faz assim
Não faz de conta
Que não pensa
Em outra chance
Pra nós dois
Olha pra mim
Não me torture
Não simule
Não me cure
De você
Deixa o amanhã dizer
Deixa o amanhã dizer
The lyrics of Marisa Monte's song "Até Parece" reflect the emotions of someone trying to make their lover remember the good times they shared together. The singer feels as though their lover is deliberately blocking out the memories they shared, pretending as though they never happened. The plea for their lover to acknowledge the past and look towards the future is evident in the repetition of the phrase "Não faz assim" ("Don't do that").
The singer begs their lover not to torture them or pretend like they don't care, and to consider giving their relationship another chance. The line "Não me cure de você" ("Don't cure me of you") suggests that despite the pain and longing, the singer still wants to hold on to the love they shared.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt plea for a second chance at love, and reflects the emotional turmoil that comes with the end of a relationship.
