Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Eu sei vai ser difícil, mas tente entender
Brigando assim não vamos a lugar nenhum
Te peço, por favor, não vá
Olha bem pra mim e diz que já me esqueceu
Vai dizer que tanto amor se perde fácil assim
Se eu errei, me deixe ao menos tentar consertar
Que a lição já aprendi, quero te amar
Volta pra mim, nós dois não temos que sofrer
The song "A Gente Tem Que se Entender" by Os Travessos talks about the importance of communication and understanding in a relationship.

He acknowledges that he made a mistake and that he wants to try to make things right, saying "Se eu errei, me deixe ao menos tentar consertar / Que a lição já aprendi, quero te amar" (If I made a mistake, let me try to fix it / I've already learned my lesson, I want to love you).
