San Amore

I’m horrible at foreign languages. So I apologize to anyone who is actually trying to translate this. It came to me spontaneously. Here’s my interpretation. It could mean “Saint Love”… which references a song I wrote in 2002… and yet this song is about someone else entirely. I also like the meaning that “san” could reference mental health… like sanity or insanity. The idea that this is “crazy love” is probably the best meaning.

Then again… all love is crazy.

Lyric:
I wanna walk thru this life with you
I wanna walk thru the burning fire with you
I wanna be a man who’s shiny and new
I wanna be something more than sad a blue
I wanna hear something new inside
I wanna feel something more than run and hide
I wanna breathe, feel and bleed love for you
I wanna kneel, bow, and pray to worship you
I wanna live on after fading times
I wanna hear you say you forgive me all my crimes
I wanna have a body vital to you
I wanna be healed in every possible way by you

san amore

I wanna run thru the hidden worlds unseen
I wanna feel every vision I have washed so pure and clean
I wanna live every moment for you
I wanna see you ridin; into the mornin dew
I wanna give you songs that no one hears
I wanna wipe away all the pain and tears
I wanna ride for miles just to see your face
I wanna be so saved by your saving grace

san amore
