Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Contemplando a dor
Que Deus nos mostrou
Dando o filho pra
Lhe garantir a paz
Contemplando a flor
Que Deus inventou
Representar o amor
Conheci Jesus
Estou vivendo bem melhor
É um prazer cantar
Para o Príncipe da Paz
Conheci a paz
Estou vivendo bem melhor
É um prazer poder
Cantar pra Ti, Jesus
Olhei pro céu e vi
Que sempre foi azul
Como é bom dizer
Jesus, I love you
The lyrics to "I Still Love You" by Alex Isley explore the pain and complexity of moving on from a past relationship. In the opening lines, the singer remembers the brief but intense time they spent with their former lover, meeting on a Sunday night and losing them by the Friday lights. The reference to Friday lights suggests a sense of fleetingness and impermanence, as if the relationship ended before it could truly begin. Despite this, the singer expresses a reluctance to watch their former lover cry, indicating that the connection between them was meaningful and emotional.
As the song progresses, the singer reflects on the ups and downs of their relationship, including the times when they broke each other's hearts. Despite the pain and heartache, the singer still longs to see their former lover smile and misses the way they looked on the night they met. This longing is encapsulated in the repeated refrain of "And I still love you," underscoring the fact that moving on is not always a simple or straightforward process.
Towards the end of the song, the singer grapples with the idea of finding someone new and whether they will always be haunted by memories of their past love. The final lines bring the song full circle, returning to the bittersweet memory of meeting and losing the former lover in the span of a week. Overall, "I Still Love You" is a poignant and universal exploration of the lingering emotions that can accompany the end of a relationship.
