Below, I translated the lyrics of the song O Amor Não Deixa by Wanessa Camargo from Portuguese to English.

Verse 1

What to do?

When a desire

Verse 1

Only makes cry, only makes suffer a heart

I don't know how to play

Your game of loving

Verse 1

I want to forget you, I want to leave you, to give you a lesson

But love doesn't allow

I didn't miss you

And I even lied that I don't want to see you

I pretended to be happy but love doesn't allow

Me to give in to another emotion

To venture into a new passion

And to say goodbye to you but love doesn't allow

Another day more

Verse 2

That I wasn't able

To speak to your face now it's all or nothing, you will lose me

And to resist

Seeing you leave

Verse 2

Closing the doors without looking back and not regretting

But love doesn't allow

I didn't miss you

And I even lied that I don't want to see you

I pretended to be happy but love doesn't allow

Me to give in to another emotion

To venture into a new passion

And to say goodbye to you but love doesn't allow

And no

I won't stop loving

Dreaming, I won't abandon myself

And when the end comes

The end of a relationship, disillusion

And the question remains in the chest of

I didn't miss you

And I even lied that I don't want to see you

I pretended to be happy but love doesn't allow

Me to give in to another emotion

To venture into a new passion

And to say goodbye to you but love doesn't allow

I didn't miss you

And I even lied that I don't want to see you

I pretended to be happy but love doesn't allow

Me to give in to another emotion

To venture into a new passion

And to say goodbye to you but love doesn't allow

I didn't miss you

And I even lied that I don't want to see you

I pretended to be happy but love doesn't allow

Me to give in to another emotion

To venture into a new passion

And to say goodbye to you but love doesn't allow

SONG MEANING

“O Amor Não Deixa” is a heartfelt confession of someone who really tried to hit the “forget” button on a past love but keeps getting pulled back in by stubborn feelings. Wanessa Camargo sings about making all the classic breakup moves: promising herself she will walk away, telling friends she feels nothing, and even flirting with the idea of a brand-new romance. Yet every time she plans her grand exit, love itself blocks the door. The result is an emotional tug-of-war where logic says “let go” but the heart whispers “not yet.”

Through catchy pop melodies, the song captures that relatable moment when we rehearse our goodbye speech, only to realize we are still glued to the memories. Wanessa’s lyrics highlight the masks we wear—pretending happiness, faking indifference—while secretly battling nostalgia. “O Amor Não Deixa” turns this struggle into an anthem for anyone who has ever tried to outsmart their own heart, reminding listeners that sometimes the hardest person to convince is ourselves.
