… Read Full Bio ↴Francis Goya (born Francis Weyer) is a Belgian guitarist born in Liege.
Weyer first played with Patrick Ruymen in the group Les Caraïbes, a Belgian cover group. The two then formed the rock group Liberty Six in 1965, which had a proto-psychedelic stage show and released only one single before disbanding. Weyer then moved on to the J.J. Band and Plus.
In the 1970s, Weyer started using the name Francis Goya and released solo albums of romantic Spanish guitar and mandolin music. His 1975 single "Nostalgia", a tune written by his father and arranged for guitar by Goya, became an international hit, reaching #1 in Belgium, Holland, Germany, Norway, and Brazil. Later albums saw Goya moving more into a Latin American-influenced style, including three albums recorded with Bolivian singer Carmina Cabrera.
Goya has some 40 album releases to his credit.
Amor de Mis Amores
Francis Goya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
un ingrato con mi pobre corazon
porque el fuego de tus lindos ojos negros
alumbraron el camino de otro amor
y pensar que te adoraba tiernamente
que a tu lado como nunca me senti
y por esas cosas raras de la vida
sin el beso de tu boca yo me vi.
Amor de mis amores amor mio
que me hiciste que no puedo soportarme
sin poderte contemplar
ya que pagaste mal a mi cariño tan sincero
lo que conseguira que no te nombre nunca mas
amor de mis amores si dejaste de quererme
no hay cuidado que la gente de esto no se enterara
que gano con decir que un hombre cambio mi suerte
se burlaran de mi que nadie sepa mi sufrir
No te asombres si te digo lo que fuiste
un ingrato con mi pobre corazon
porque el fuego de tus lindos ojos negros
alumbraron el camino de otro amor
y pensar que te adoraba tiernamente
que a tu lado como nunca me senti
y por esas cosas raras de la vida
sin el beso de tu boca yo me vi
Amor de mis amores amor mio
que me hiciste que no puedo soportarme
sin poderte contemplar
ya que pagaste mal a mi cariño tan sincero
lo que conseguira que no te nombre nunca mas
(morire de amor sin que nadie sepa mi sufrir)
Amor de mis amores si dejaste de quererme
no hay cuidado que la gente de esto no se enterara
que gano con decir que un hombre cambio mi suerte
se burlaran de mi que nadie sepa mi sufrir.
The lyrics to Francis Goya's song "Amor de Mis Amores" tell the story of a heartbroken lover who has been betrayed by the person they adored. The lover accuses their former partner of being ungrateful and acting as a roadblock to their happiness. The lover reminisces about the past when they adored their partner deeply and felt a sense of belonging, but that the light of their partner's black eyes had led them away from love. The lover speaks of how, due to the cruel twists of fate that life can bring, they were left without the embrace of their partner's lips, causing them immense sadness.
The chorus of the song is an expression of the lover's intense emotions - they cannot bear to be apart from the person they love, and the pain is too much to handle. The lover's sincere love has not been reciprocated, and they feel like they have been let down by the one person they trusted. The lover says they won't mention this person's name ever again and ends with a line about potentially dying from love, without anyone ever knowing their true suffering.
Overall, "Amor de Mis Amores" is a song about heartbreak, unrequited love, and betrayal, and how all of these experiences can take a toll on a person's emotional well-being.
