Home / Lyrics Translation / Manu Gavassi / Esse Amor Tão Errado

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Esse Amor Tão Errado by Manu Gavassi from Portuguese to English.

Verse 1

Don't tell me what I wanna hear this time

For so long I played at ignoring

What you did, what you did

You stole me from myself

Left me like this

Begging for pieces of this love of ours that's so wrong

You don't need to prove it anymore

It hurts to see you try

I've already memorized your excuses

It didn't get any easier for me

You don't need to say it anymore

That I'll never forget

Because maybe our time is up

I'll gather our refrains and go

Verse 2

Don't tell me what I wanna hear this time

For so long I played at ignoring

What you did, what you did

You stole me from myself

Left me like this

Begging for pieces of this love of ours that's so wrong

You don't need to prove it anymore

It hurts to see you try

I've already memorized your excuses

It didn't get any easier for me

You don't need to say it anymore

That I'll never forget

Because maybe our time is up

I'll gather our refrains and go

You don't need to prove it anymore

It hurts to see you try

I've already memorized your excuses

It didn't get any easier for me

You don't need to say it anymore

That I'll never forget

Because maybe our time is up

I'll gather our refrains and go

You don't need to prove it anymore

It hurts to see you try

I've already memorized your excuses

It didn't get any easier for me

You don't need to say it anymore

That I'll never forget

Because maybe our time is up

I'll gather our refrains and go

SONG MEANING

“Esse Amor Tão Errado” feels like flipping through the last pages of a dramatic diary. Backed by Manu Gavassi’s catchy pop melody, the lyrics paint a picture of someone who finally sees through sweet words and rehearsed excuses. She realizes that this love has stolen pieces of her identity, leaving her pleading for scraps of affection that never satisfy. The song captures that sharp moment when denial fades and the ugly truth shines: this relationship is thrilling but fundamentally wrong.

Rather than dwelling on heartbreak, Manu turns the mic toward empowerment. She calls out the partner’s hollow apologies, admits that hearing them only hurts more, and boldly decides to “collect our choruses and walk away.” It is a relatable anthem for anyone ready to reclaim their voice, pack up the memories, and exit a toxic stage with head held high.
