Tempo Certo
Henrique & Diego
The Longing for Perfect Timing in Love
Henrique & Diego's song "Tempo Certo" delves into the emotional turmoil of a love that feels both near and far. The lyrics express a sense of surrealism and frustration, as the singer grapples with the inconsistency of their relationship. The lines "Viver assim tão perto e tão distante de mim" (Living so close and yet so far from me) and "Às vezes vejo que vem, às vezes vejo que vai" (Sometimes I see you coming, sometimes I see you going) highlight the unpredictable nature of their connection, which feels abnormal and unsettling.
The singer's desire to hold onto their love is palpable, as they wish they could "prendia em mim" (hold you in me) and never let go. However, they recognize the need for patience and the right timing, as they resolve to "esperar amanhecer" (wait for the dawn) and seize another chance to share their dreams and fantasies with their partner. The repetition of "no tempo certo pra acontecer" (at the right time to happen) underscores the belief that their love will flourish when the timing is perfect.
This song captures the universal struggle of wanting to be with someone but feeling the constraints of timing and circumstance. It speaks to the hope and anticipation that love will eventually align with the right moment, allowing dreams and desires to come to fruition. Henrique & Diego's heartfelt delivery and relatable lyrics make "Tempo Certo" a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and the importance of patience in relationships.
