Desculpa Por Eu Não Te Amar Lyrics in English Thiago Pantaleão

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Desculpa Por Eu Não Te Amar by Thiago Pantaleão from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
I know why it didn't work out for us
I tried, I cried, I just know it never was
Baby, don't feel bad, I want you
But I also want everyone
My reputation is bad
By day I'm a lady, by night a scoundrel
I ask God
What did you do to deserve this?
My heart doesn't want you
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
I know you'll find someone one day
Who makes you happy, baby
Sorry for not loving you that much
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
I know you'll find someone one day
Who makes you happy, baby
Sorry for not loving you that much
Verse 2
I know why it didn't work out for us
I tried, I cried, I just know it never was
Baby, don't feel bad, I want you
But I also want everyone
My reputation is bad
By day I'm a lady, by night a scoundrel
I ask God
What did you do to deserve this?
My heart doesn't want you
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
I know you'll find someone one day
Who makes you happy, baby
Sorry for not loving you that much
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
Sorry for not loving you like that
The way you love me
I know you'll find someone one day
Who makes you happy, baby
Sorry for not loving you that much

SONG MEANING

Thiago Pantaleão turns heartbreak into a candid confession in “Desculpa Por Eu Não Te Amar.” Over a smooth, R&B-flavored groove, the Brazilian singer looks straight at a partner who loves him deeply and admits the uncomfortable truth: his heart just is not in the same place. He has tried, he has cried, but the spark never really caught fire. By day he can play the “lady,” polished and charming, yet by night he slips into a wilder, free-spirited life that pulls him toward “todo mundo” rather than one exclusive love.

The chorus is both tender and brutally honest: “Desculpa por eu não te amar assim do jeito que tu ama a mim.” Pantaleão apologizes for the imbalance, reassures his lover that someone else will make them happy, and refuses to fake feelings he cannot sustain. The song’s core message celebrates self-awareness and transparency. It reminds us that genuine affection cannot be forced, and sometimes the kindest act is letting go so both people can seek the love they truly deserve.
