some Brazilian songs that represent some ppg couples because I think you guys are missing out on Brazilian music and I'd like to share.
(this is gonna be a long post so buckle up)

"They tell me: the world is in your hands
I guess I let it go then
no, of course I don't love you
but in trying to forget you I'm already remembering us
and if I remember, don't answer me
I swear I don't love you, I just had too much to drink" - Não Te Amo (don't love you), Jão
"I won't talk about love, no
because I don't like anyone
if one day I did, what a shame
(...)
and I won't talk about your eyes
it makes me say the things that I'm afraid to
because they show me what I didn't want to see
and I won't even mention your mouth
I won't say I love you
after spending so long trying to hide it
and I don't even know what I'm talking about
every time I open up I give you an opening to fuck me up" - NÃO VOU FALAR DE AMOR (won't talk about love), Lagum
"Why did you never love me?
why did you hurt me
pretended, lied, never loved me
I wish I could tell you that I
never felt anything for you
I wish that I could uncry
the tears that already ran
and if it already ran (it'll dry)
and if it already dried (no one saw)
I will send it there, to the bridge that fell
this letter that doesn't say" Carta Que Nao Diz (letter that doesn't say), Mariana Froes, Rodrigo Alarcon, Ana Muller
Butchercup
"I like being immature with you
I like to give myself and get lost
I want to be able to nag you on your every manner
smoking anything, just to entertain myself
I risk my life just to see you
all of our youth runs through our veins
it's just, I'm weak, fragile and stupid
to talk about love
but if it's with you, I'll do it" Imaturo (immature), Jão
"The first time I saw you
something told me
"this is gonna end badly"
on the second time, I had the same impression
but I'm not one to listen
to my intuition
it's like something between chaos and stress
but that kind off messes me up
in a good way
baby, don't make me crazy
because I already am
it's just, there really should be a test
anything, a simulation perhaps
to avoid getting into a trap
instead of a relationship
you tell me you hate my outfit
and I really love your dress
when I have the chance to take it off
you tell me that you love me
and I hate you
in a strange way
because nothing is weirder than loving" - EU TE AMO (I Love You), Lagum
"Tell me you hate me
but say you don't live without me
I'm a plague
miss "no shame" from your garden
you're jealous
but you love to watch me dance" - Bem-Me-Quer (He Loves Me, like from the "he loves me, he loves me not" thing), Rita Lee
Boomubbles
"I made these blues for Bia
but Bia won't come and hear
I won't censor the beauty
it's in her nature
living loose around here
I composed sweet melodies
so she would be moved by them
I rhymed with melancholy
my day-to-day without Bia
but Bia doesn't care" - Blues Pra Bia (Blues for Bia) , Chico Buarque (he's like a father to me)
Note: translating this man's songs is almost sacrilegious. Please go listen yourself to at least feel the vibe a little bit. He's a master of lyricism.
"Whoever sees you walking past me like this
doesn't know what suffering is
having to see you in this way
always so pretty
contemplate the sun of your eyes
losing you in thin air
in the certainty of a love
thinking of myself as nothing
because without your kindness
I feel so alone
I drown myself in loneliness" Anna Júlia, Los Hermanos
"Love of my life
from here until eternity
our destinies were traced since maternity
cruel passion, unbridled
I bring you a thousand stolen roses
so you can forgive all of my lies
and all of my blunders
exaggerated, thrown at your feet
I really am exaggerated
I adore a crafted love" - Exagerado (exaggerated), Cazuza
