Regret and Reflection in 'Não Fosse Tão Tarde (MTG Remix)' by Lou Garcia
Lou Garcia's 'Não Fosse Tão Tarde (MTG Remix)' featuring DJ Luan Gomes is a poignant exploration of regret and the longing for reconciliation. The lyrics convey a deep sense of remorse as the narrator reflects on a past relationship that ended due to their own unwillingness to make it work. The repeated lines 'Não funcionou porque fui eu quem não quis' (It didn't work because I didn't want it to) highlight the narrator's acknowledgment of their role in the relationship's failure. This admission is both a confession and a lament, underscoring the weight of their regret.
The song also touches on the theme of missed opportunities. The narrator expresses a desire to turn back time and erase the mistakes that led to the current state of estrangement. The lines 'Eu ia te pedir pra ficar aqui / Eu voltaria e apagaria / Tudo que nos fez hoje sermos assim' (I would ask you to stay here / I would go back and erase / Everything that made us like this today) illustrate a longing for a second chance, a wish to rewrite the past and mend what has been broken.
Additionally, the song captures the pain of lost friendship. The narrator reminisces about the bond they once shared, now lost to time and circumstances. 'Tô com saudade da nossa amizade / A gente se perdeu e não se encontrou mais' (I miss our friendship / We got lost and never found each other again) speaks to the deep sense of loss and the yearning for the connection they once had. The mention of DJ Luan Gomes adds a layer of contemporary relevance, blending personal reflection with modern musical elements, making the song resonate with a wide audience.
