Sarah
Mauro Scocco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hon finns I alla rum
I luften dom andas
Hennes kyss p deras mun
Dom smyger runt hennes port
Med hennes bild I fickan
Dom are hjltarna I filmen
Dom ropar hennes namn fast ingen hr
Och stjrnorna sjunger I kr
Hon gr frbi mitt hus
Jag fljer varje steg hon tar
Hon frsvinner runt hrnet
Och sen finns bara lngtan kvar
Dom sger att hon lever ensam
Och kanske vill hon ha det s
Men om hon lrde knna mig
Skulle det ndra nt d
Jag str I hennes port och hr hjrtat sl
Jag gr fram till hennes drr och ringer p
(kom ut ikvll) oh sarah kom ut ikvll
Jag vntar I hrnet vid 7eleven
Sarah do are mer n jag frstr
Men ta p dig jackan s gr vi ut och gr
Hon are vild som vinden
Hon are varm som en sommarnatt
I hennes gon glittrar
En outtmlig skatt
Det finns inget jag inte skulle gra
Fr att ha henne hr
Jag tar ner mnen och stjrnorna
Jag lovar och svr
Jag gr fram till hennes drr och ringer p
P andra sidan brjar ngon att g
Oh sarah kom ut ikvll
Jag vntar I hrnet vid 7eleven
Sarah do are mer n jag frstr
Men ta p dig jackan s gr vi ut och gr
Oh sarah
The song Sarah by Mauro Scocco is about a woman named Sarah who is admired by many boys in the neighborhood. Everyone wants to be around her and bask in her beauty, and the boys even carry her picture in their pockets. The singer of the song is no exception, as he follows her every move and dreams of being close to her. He feels a deep longing for her but knows that she lives a solitary life and may prefer it that way. Despite this, the singer still holds out hope that Sarah will come out and spend time with him. He promises to do anything for her, even bring down the moon and stars for her.
The song is a beautiful and melancholy reflection on unrequited love and the desire to connect with someone who seems out of reach. The imagery and metaphors used paint a vivid picture of Sarah as a woman who is the object of adoration and fascination, but who also remains elusive and enigmatic. The singer's longing for Sarah is palpable and the imagery of him standing outside her door, waiting for her to come out, is a powerful representation of his longing and desire for connection.
