Tempo de Se Amar

The song "Tempo de Se Amar" by 5 a Seco is a poetic exploration of love's transformative power and the journey it entails. The lyrics use nautical imagery to depict the emotional voyage of falling in love. The opening lines, "Na embarcação do seu olhar, desancorei, fiquei no ar," suggest that the protagonist is captivated by the gaze of their beloved, feeling unmoored and weightless. This sets the stage for a journey that transcends physical boundaries, as the protagonist metaphorically sails through the sky and crosses the sea, indicating the lengths they are willing to go for love.

The song continues with the protagonist building ships and facing the cold solitude, symbolizing the challenges and sacrifices made in the name of love. The mention of a "multidão de estrelas" (multitude of stars) evokes a sense of wonder and the vastness of the emotional landscape they are navigating. When the protagonist finally reaches the shore and sees gardens instead of walls, it signifies a sense of arrival and belonging, a place where love can flourish without barriers.

The closing lines, "Deixo o futuro criar raiz, juro que um dia serei feliz," express a hopeful commitment to the future, where love is seen as a timeless and enduring force. The protagonist envisions a future where love continues to grow and promises happiness. The recurring theme of love being an eternal state, "pra sempre será tempo de se amar," reinforces the idea that love is not confined to a moment but is a perpetual journey. This song beautifully captures the essence of love as an ever-evolving and enduring experience, filled with both challenges and moments of profound connection.
