Espera

In 'Espera,' Fernando Daniel delves into the themes of self-discovery, love, and the fear of abandonment. The song begins with the artist acknowledging his journey of self-awareness, stating, 'Eu, já sei quem sou / E o que fiz / Foi para bem de mim.' This line sets the stage for a narrative of personal growth and transformation. He recognizes that his past actions were necessary for his own well-being, and he is now ready to embrace a future that includes his significant other, as he sings, 'Sou o que não fui / E serei o amanhã a dois.' This indicates a readiness to share his newfound self with someone else.

The recurring plea, 'Onde é que vais / Espera por mim,' reveals a deep-seated fear of losing his partner. He promises to be better for them, highlighting his commitment to self-improvement and the relationship. The repetition of 'Eu vou ser melhor por ti' underscores his determination to change and grow for the sake of their love. This sentiment is further emphasized by the lines, 'Sempre que sais / Eu sinto o fim / Eu não quero ficar por aqui,' which convey a sense of despair and incompleteness whenever his partner is not around.

Fernando Daniel also touches on the idea of dependency and the irreplaceable value of his partner in his life. He describes his partner as 'Tu dona de ti / Deixas-me assim / Sem saber o que fazer,' portraying a sense of helplessness and admiration. The line 'A vida sem ti não tem sabor' poignantly captures the essence of his emotional state, suggesting that life loses its meaning without his partner. The song is a heartfelt plea for patience and understanding, as he navigates his journey of becoming a better person for the one he loves.
