Love You More
Roberto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu queria um passarinho ser
Pra levar um bilhetinho pra você
E nas mal traçadas linhas revelar
Minha paixão e o meu amor, meu grande amor
No meu radinho de pilha sempre escuto
Melodias que me lembram de você
Cafonice talvez possa parecer
Vou me modernizar você vai ver

Uma calça Lee agora vou comprar
Vou ficar moderninho pra chuchu
Vou até aprender falar inglês
Pra lhe dizer I love you, I love you

Vou falar gíria e dançar o rock'n'roll
E do Castelinho vou ficar freguês
E se tudo isso não adiantar
Eu vou vestir meu terno branco outra vez

Vou falar gíria e dançar o rock'n'roll
E do Castelinho vou ficar freguês
E se tudo isso não adiantar
Eu vou vestir meu terno branco outra vez




Eu vou vestir meu terno branco outra vez
Eu vou vestir meu terno branco outra vez

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Roberto Carlos's song I Love You convey a deep and overwhelming love for someone. The verses express the desire to be like a bird, so the singer could deliver a note to that special person. The message on the note would reveal his profound passion and love, suggesting that the person is unaware of the singer's feelings, and he intends to confess his love. The first stanza of the song implies that the singer's love is not yet modern, indicated by his "radinho de pilha" (battery-powered radio) and the "melodias que me lembram de você" (melodies that remind me of you). He claims that he will get up to modernity, changing his old-fashioned ways to become more trendy, revealing his willingness to be and do whatever it takes to win the heart of the person he loves.


The chorus of the song emphasizes this willingness to change by stating that the singer will buy new clothes like a pair of Lee jeans to get a modern look. The singer will even go above and beyond by learning to speak English to express his feelings better, and if that isn't enough, he'll start using slang words, dance rock'n'roll, and become a regular at the Castelinho nightclub, hoping to impress the person he loves. The final stanzas of the song reveal that if all his efforts fail, he'll go back to his original plan, wearing his old-fashioned suit again, implying that his love for this person is greater than his short-lived commitment to modernity.
