I don't know if you remember like I do
But I know it was December and by the sea
What nobody expected happened
The cold became the fireplace to love you
I don't know if you remember my way
Clumsy even to say it
The things that leave us at a loss
And always make our hands shake
I love you so much
I want you so much
I told you with my shy look
I want you so much
I love you so much
And you doubted my clumsy look
I love you so much
I want you so much
And you smiled at my lovestruck look
I want you so much
I love you so much
But you still smile today by my side
I don't know if you remember you used to pick on
My hair and my voice
And you didn't even like the songs
The ones I sang just for us
Of course there were fights and mistakes
But we've already got memories to tell
And today even after so many years
I'm still here always singing
I love you so much
I want you so much
I told you with my shy look
I want you so much
I love you so much
And you doubted my clumsy look
I love you so much
I want you so much
And you smiled at my lovestruck look
I want you so much
I love you so much
But you still smile today by my side
I want you so much
I love you so much
I don't know if you remember like I do
But I know it was December and by the sea
What nobody expected happened
The cold became the fireplace to love you

SONG MEANING

Imagine a chilly December night by the Portuguese seashore, when an unexpected spark turns the cold into a cozy fireplace of affection. That is the backdrop of Desajeitado (“Clumsy”), where André Amaro looks back on the very first moment he shyly declared, “Amo-te muito, quero-te tanto” — I love you so much, I want you so much. Though his words stumbled and his hands trembled, the awkward charm worked: the girl he adored answered with a smile that still brightens his life today.

The song is a warm tribute to imperfect, lasting love. Amaro sings about the teasing (she mocked his hair and even his private serenades), the quarrels, and all the little misunderstandings that come with time. Yet every memory — adorable or exasperating — has become part of their shared story, proving that genuine feelings outshine clumsy delivery. Desajeitado reminds us that what truly matters is not flawless speech but the honest, heartfelt emotion behind it. If love can survive bad hair days, shaky voices, and off-key songs, it can survive anything.
