Throughout her long career she has been the recipient of numerous awards including the Grammy Award and the Emmy Award. The couple's striking union of broad ballads and breezy swing has combined with the endurance of their marriage and their comic facility to make them American institutions - even though neither of the couple, as separate performers or together, has put a single into the American Top 40 since 1963.

Sabor a Mi
Eydie Gorme Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nuestras almas se acercaron tanto así
Que yo guardo tu sabor pero tú llevas también
Sabor a mí
Sin negaras mi presencia en tu vivir
Bastaría con abrazarte y conversar
Tanta vida yo te di que por fuerza tienes ya
No pretendo ser tu dueña
No soy nada, yo no tengo vanidad
De mi vida doy lo bueno
Soy tan pobre, ¿qué otra cosa puedo dar?
Pasarán más de mil años, muchos más
Yo no sé si tenga amor la eternidad
Pero allá tal como aquí, en la boca llevarás
Sabor a mí
No pretendo ser tu dueña
No soy nada, yo no tengo vanidad
De mi vida doy lo bueno
Soy tan pobre, ¿qué otra cosa puedo dar?
Pasarán más de mil años, muchos más
Yo no sé si tenga amor la eternidad
Pero allá tal como aquí, en la boca llevarás
Sabor a mí
Sabor a mí
The lyrics of "Sabor a mi" by Eydie Gormé describe a lasting love that has left its mark on both parties involved. The opening lines, "Tanto tiempo disfrutamos de este amor" ("We've enjoyed this love for so long"), suggest that the two lovers have had a long, fulfilling relationship. The next line, "Nuestras almas se acercaron tanto así" ("Our souls became so close"), paints a picture of a deep and emotional connection between the two.
The lyrics then shift to the idea that although the singer holds the memory of their love close, the other party also carries a part of them. "Que yo guardo tu sabor pero tú llevas también/Sabor a mí" ("I keep the taste of you, but you also carry the taste of me") suggests that there is a mutual and equal exchange of love between the two people.
The second stanza continues this theme of reciprocity, with the singer insisting that they do not want to "own" the other person but only share their life and their love. They declare themselves "so poor" that they have nothing to offer but their affection. The song then concludes with the idea that even if thousands of years were to pass, the taste of their love will remain with each person forever.
Overall, the lyrics of "Sabor a mi" present a beautiful and romantic image of love that is lasting and equal, with neither party holding dominance over the other.

For so long we have delighted in this love
Our souls were drawn together, oh so close
That I keep the taste of you
But you also hold within
A taste of me.
If you would deny my presence in your life
I’m content with an embrace and conversation
So much life I’ve given you
That by force you now retain
A taste of me.
I don’t pretend to dominate you
I am nothing, and I have no vanity
Out of my life I give goodness
I’m so poor that I don’t know what else to give.
Though a thousand years may pass, and many more
I don’t know if love will be there evermore
But beyond, as well as here
In your mouth there’ll always be
A taste of me.

This is the song of songs for my parents, and most of all latinos across the last 50 years. I grew up watching my Mom and Dad dance to this-it is a beautiful memory.
