Coração Só Vê Você

João Bosco e Vinícius's song "Coração Só Vê Você" delves into the complexities of love and the struggle of moving on from a deep emotional connection. The lyrics poignantly express the internal conflict of wanting to let go of a love that is all-consuming but finding it impossible to do so. The repeated lines, "Se eu pudesse te odiar como eu te quero" (If I could hate you as much as I love you) and "Se eu pudesse te esquecer como eu te espero" (If I could forget you as much as I wait for you), highlight the paradox of intense feelings that are both a source of joy and pain.

The song captures the essence of unrequited love and the difficulty of finding closure. The narrator acknowledges that while it might be easy to say they can move on, the reality is much harder. The lines "Fácil é dizer, difícil é conviver / Sem você tudo é saudade, solidão" (Easy to say, hard to live / Without you, everything is longing, loneliness) emphasize the emotional turmoil and the pervasive sense of loneliness that comes with the absence of the loved one.

Moreover, the song reflects on the idea that the heart has its own will, often defying logic and reason. The phrase "Mas de tanto te querer, coração só vê você" (But from wanting you so much, the heart only sees you) encapsulates the notion that the heart remains fixated on the object of its affection, making it difficult to open up to new possibilities. This theme resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of a love that lingers despite efforts to move forward.
