I like you so much
That I even prefer to hide it
Let it stay implied like this
Like an idea that exists in the head and
Has no obligation at all to happen
I find it so beautiful, this being abstract, baby
Beauty really is so fleeting
It's an idea that exists in the head and
Has no intention at all of happening
It might even look like weakness
So let it be weakness then
The joy it gives me
That goes without me saying
If tomorrow it's nothing like this
It'll be up to me alone to forget
What I gain and what I lose nobody
Psshhh
I find it so beautiful, this being abstract, baby
Beauty really is so fleeting
It's an idea that exists in the head and
Has no obligation at all to happen
It might even look like weakness
So let it be weakness then
The joy it gives me
That goes without me saying
If tomorrow it's nothing like this
It'll be up to me alone to forget
I'll survive
What I gain and what I lose
Nobody needs to know

SONG MEANING

“Apenas Mais Uma de Amor” invites us into a secret garden of feelings where love is cherished precisely because it is unspoken. Vanessa da Mata sings about liking someone so much that she would rather keep the emotion hidden, letting it live as a beautiful, abstract idea in her mind. By refusing to demand that the romance “happen,” she protects its fragile charm, celebrating the thrill of possibility without the risk of disappointment. What might look like weakness is actually a quiet strength: she enjoys the happiness her silent crush brings and promises to handle any heartbreak on her own, far from prying eyes.

Through this tender confession, the song reminds us that some emotions shine brightest when they remain untamed. Beauty is fleeting, dreams can be exquisite even if unrealized, and true independence means owning both the gains and losses of the heart. It is a breezy, softly defiant anthem for anyone who has ever loved in silence and found power in that gentle secrecy.
