Away
Sändy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu numa ilusão, mas preso ao chão
Tão só, náufrago e só
Me perco no que sobrou de nós
É fácil ser herói se o amor te acolhe bem
Mas não, agora não há lugar pra mim

E então, fugir eu já tentei
'To preso num replay
Lembranças vão me consumir
E então, me sufoco em sonhos vãos
O amor que era tão bom
Se volta agora contra mim

Tudo o que eu fiz, tanto eu te dei
De mim o que você tirou
Não há como substituir
Me deu tantas visões do oásis de nós dois
E agora já não há lugar pra mim

E então, fugir eu já tentei
'To preso num replay
Lembranças vão me consumir
E então, me sufoco em sonhos vãos
O amor que era tão bom
Se volta agora contra mim

Eu 'to preso num replay
E então, fugir eu já tentei

E então, fugir eu já tentei
'To preso num replay
Lembranças vão me consumir
E então, me sufoco em sonhos vãos




O amor que era tão bom
Se volta agora contra mim

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sändy's song "Away" reveal the story of someone who is still in love with their former partner but feels trapped and unable to move on. The opening line, "Eu numa ilusão, mas preso ao chão" which translates to "I am in an illusion, but stuck to the ground" suggests that the singer is grappling with conflicting thoughts and emotions. The feelings of being lost and stranded are further emphasized in the line "Tão só, náufrago e só," which means "So alone, shipwrecked and alone." As the song progresses, the singer confesses to being overwhelmed by memories and dreams that only remind them of what is lost. Despite having given so much to the relationship, the singer feels that they have been taken for granted, and there is no place for them now. The lines "De mim o que você tirou, Não há como substituir" which when translated means "What did you take out of me, there is no replacement" reflect this sense of loss and frustration.


The chorus, "E então, fugir eu já tentei, 'To preso num replay, Lembranças vão me consumir" which translates as "And then, I tried to escape, I'm caught in a replay, Memories will consume me" underscores the idea that the singer is stuck in a loop unable to break free from their memories. The second part of the chorus "O amor que era tão bom, Se volta agora contra mim" which roughly means "The love that was so good is now turning against me" highlights how love can be both constructive and destructive.


Overall, the lyrics are a poignant reminder of how love can be both beautiful and painful, and how difficult it can be to move on from a past relationship.


Line by Line Meaning

Eu numa ilusão, mas preso ao chão
I am living in a dream, but trapped in reality


Tão só, náufrago e só
So lonely, like a shipwreck survivor stranded alone


Me perco no que sobrou de nós
I get lost in what remains of our relationship


É fácil ser herói se o amor te acolhe bem
It's easy to be a hero when love treats you kindly


Mas não, agora não há lugar pra mim
But now, there's no place for me


E então, fugir eu já tentei
And so, I've tried to escape


'To preso num replay
But I'm stuck in a playback loop


Lembranças vão me consumir
Memories will consume me


E então, me sufoco em sonhos vãos
And then, I suffocate in vain dreams


O amor que era tão bom
The love that was once so good


Se volta agora contra mim
Now turns against me


Tudo o que eu fiz, tanto eu te dei
Everything I did, I gave to you


De mim o que você tirou
What did you take from me?


Não há como substituir
It can't be replaced


Me deu tantas visões do oásis de nós dois
You gave me so many visions of the oasis of us


E agora já não há lugar pra mim
And now there's no place for me
