Coração

Gonzaguinha's song 'Coração' is a heartfelt plea to embrace life with all its ups and downs. The title, which translates to 'Heart,' sets the tone for a deeply emotional and introspective journey. The lyrics begin with a call to the heart to open its doors, regardless of the potential for suffering. This metaphorical door represents the willingness to experience life fully, suggesting that the richness of life comes from its emotional highs and lows.

The song emphasizes the value of living vibrantly, using the metaphor of a colorful train ('trem das cores') to symbolize the beauty and diversity of experiences that life offers. Gonzaguinha contrasts this with the bleakness of a closed door and a finished party, implying that shutting oneself off from life's experiences is akin to a kind of death. The vivid imagery of a colorful train versus a closed door serves to highlight the importance of openness and emotional engagement.

Gonzaguinha's lyrics also touch on the idea that the emotional spectrum, including sorrow, is an essential part of living. He suggests that it is better to feel deeply, even if it means experiencing pain, than to live a life devoid of emotion. The song concludes with a reassuring message to the heart, encouraging it not to fear. By opening the door, life will enter with all its rights, and the heart will also receive what it deserves. This final sentiment encapsulates the song's core message: to live fully and fearlessly, embracing all that life has to offer.
