O Amor Não Deixa Lyrics in English Wanessa Camargo

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 a heart cry, only makes it hurt
I don’t know how to play
This love game of yours
Verse 1
I want to forget you, I want to leave you, teach you a lesson
But love won’t let me
I didn’t miss you
I even lied that I don’t want to see you
I pretended I’m happy but love won’t let me
Give myself to another feeling
Dive into a new passion
And tell you goodbye but love won’t let me
One more day
Verse 2
That I wasn’t able
To say it to your face, now it’s all or nothing, you’re gonna lose me
And to resist
Watch you leave
Verse 2
Shut the doors without looking back and not regret it
But love won’t let me
I didn’t miss you
I even lied that I don’t want to see you
I pretended I’m happy but love won’t let me
Give myself to another feeling
Dive into a new passion
And tell you goodbye but love won’t let me
And no
I won’t stop loving
Or dreaming, I won’t abandon myself
And when the end comes
The end of a relationship, disillusion
And the question stays in my chest of
I didn’t miss you
I even lied that I don’t want to see you
I pretended I’m happy but love won’t let me
Give myself to another feeling
Dive into a new passion
And tell you goodbye but love won’t let me
I didn’t miss you
I even lied that I don’t want to see you
I pretended I’m happy but love won’t let me
Give myself to another feeling
Dive into a new passion
And tell you goodbye but love won’t let me
I didn’t miss you
I even lied that I don’t want to see you
I pretended I’m happy but love won’t let me
Give myself to another feeling
Dive into a new passion
And tell you goodbye but love won’t let me

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.
