Com Mais Ninguém

Djavan's song 'Com Mais Ninguém' delves into the profound and often tumultuous nature of love. The lyrics express a deep conviction that the singer's happiness is intrinsically tied to a specific person, suggesting that no one else could ever fulfill that role. This sentiment is encapsulated in the repeated assertion, 'Meu destino diz, meu bem, que eu não serei feliz com mais ninguém,' which translates to 'My destiny says, my dear, that I will not be happy with anyone else.' This line underscores the idea of a predestined love, one that is irreplaceable and unique.

The song also explores the dichotomy between love and loneliness. Djavan acknowledges that love often thrives on illusion and fantasy, yet he argues that this is preferable to the pain of solitude. The lines 'Mesmo que o amor se alimente de ilusão, é melhor que sofrer de solidão' ('Even if love feeds on illusion, it's better than suffering from loneliness') highlight this belief. The singer seems to accept that love, with all its imperfections and illusions, is still a more desirable state than being alone.

Furthermore, Djavan touches on the complexities of nurturing a love that is not fully reciprocated or realized. He speaks of love needing a space to grow, yet being confined and obscured, as seen in 'Um amor pra crescer precisa ter como existir, contido, retido, em vez de luz, obscuridade' ('A love to grow needs a way to exist, contained, retained, instead of light, obscurity'). This metaphor of light and darkness illustrates the struggle of maintaining a love that is not fully illuminated or acknowledged. The song poignantly captures the essence of longing and the emotional turmoil that comes with an unfulfilled love.
