És Amor
Gossos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Plovia I Tot Estava Moll,
La Pluja Ens Feia Estar Aprop, Tan Aprop...
Mai Hauriem Vist Aquell Final.
Ara La Pluja S'ha Acabat
La Teva Absència em Deixa Sol,
Segurament El Cel no em Vol
És Amor, El Que Tinc Al Cor...
El Meu Cor Està Plorant,
T'enyora Tant o Més Que Jo
Està Ferit Malalt D'amor, Sí D'amor,
Quan Et Somia Li Fas Mal.
És Amor El Quie Tinc Al Cor...
The lyrics of Gossos's song És Amor suggest a bittersweet love story. The first verse describes a moment shared by two people looking out of a window, enjoying the rain and their closeness. However, the following verses reveal that the absence of the loved one now brings great sadness to the singer. The rain no longer serves as a symbol of connection, but rather as a reminder of the pain of lost love. The chorus repeats the phrase "és amor" (it's love) as a reminder that despite the sadness and heartache, the singer's feelings are still rooted in love.
The second verse reveals the deep longing and hurt that the singer feels in the absence of their loved one. The line "està ferit malalt d'amor" (it's wounded sick with love) suggests that the heartbreak is causing physical pain for the singer. The final chorus affirms once again that despite the hurt and pain, the singer's feelings are rooted in love.
