Nem É Bom Lembrar

Marília Mendonça's song "Nem É Bom Lembrar" delves into the complexities of love and the painful process of moving on from a past relationship. The lyrics poignantly express the difficulty of finding true love, emphasizing that it cannot be discovered in fleeting moments or casual encounters. The song suggests that such superficial connections often lead to deception and heartache, leaving one with memories that are best forgotten.

The narrative takes a personal turn as the singer reminisces about a past love, vividly recalling the person's face and the dreams they once shared. The imagery of rain falling while remembering this love adds a melancholic tone, symbolizing the tears and sorrow associated with lost love. The metaphor of a river being insufficient for someone who seeks the vastness of the sea highlights the singer's realization that their past relationship was not enough to fulfill their deeper desires and aspirations.

As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges the emotional turmoil caused by this past love, comparing it to a storm that left them in pain. Despite the hurt, there is a sense of triumph as the singer declares their success in overcoming the love and the pain it brought. The repetition of the phrase "Agora eu nem quero te lembrar" ("Now I don't even want to remember you") underscores the resolve to move forward and leave the past behind. This song captures the bittersweet journey of letting go, blending sorrow with a sense of empowerment and closure.
