Nocaute Lyrics in English by João Gomes
Nocaute literally translates to "knockout," a term directly borrowed from boxing. It's an energetic and somewhat unexpected word to find in a romantic song.
In "Nocaute," João Gomes uses this word metaphorically to describe the overwhelming feeling of falling back in love. He sings, "Fui a nocaute, beijei a lona" (I was knocked out, I kissed the canvas), vividly portraying the sensation of being completely swept off his feet and defeated by his emotions when he saw his love again.
Get ready to swoon with João Gomes' "Nocaute"! This song is all about that feeling when you try to move on, but one look at your ex and you're right back where you started. Our singer admits, "Ainda sou o mesmo bobo apaixonado" [I'm still the same lovesick fool], even saying, "Se eu estou errado não quero nem saber!" [If I'm wrong, I don't even want to know!]. He's completely smitten, believing "a vida é mais colorida com você" [life is more colorful with you].
It's a classic tale of falling for someone all over again, even when your head tells you not to. He sings, "O meu coração indo contra a razão" [My heart going against reason], and when he saw her again, he "Recaí quando te vi" [Relapsed when I saw you]. The passion was so strong, he was "a nocaute, beijei a lona" [knocked out, kissed the canvas]. Even though "O tempo passou, a vida mudou" [Time passed, life changed], he declares, "Mas eu continuo seu" [But I'm still yours]. It's a sweet, honest look at how some loves just stick with you, no matter what.
