volare
McGuire Sisters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes the world is a valley of heartaches and tears
And in the hustle and bustle, no sunshine appears
But you and I have our love always there to remind us
There is a way we can leave all the shadows behind us
Volare, oh, oh! Cantare, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Let's fly way up to the clouds, away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like birds of a feather a rainbow together we'll find
Volare, oh, oh! Cantare, oh, oh, oh, oh!
No wonder my happy heart sings




Your love has given me wings
Your love has given me wings

Overall Meaning

The McGuire Sisters' "Volare" is a reminder of the power of love to carry us through difficult times. The first stanza paints a picture of a world where heartaches and tears are commonplace, and the "hustle and bustle" of daily life can feel overwhelming. However, this sense of gloom is quickly dispelled in the chorus, as the singers invite us to "fly way up to the clouds" and escape the stresses of modern life.


This flight to freedom is not a solo journey, however. The song reminds us that we have each other and the love that binds us to guide us through life's challenges. The line "But you and I have our love always there to remind us" is particularly poignant, serving as a testament to the enduring nature of love even when everything else in the world seems uncertain.


Combined with the catchy melody and upbeat rhythm, "Volare" is a timeless classic that reminds us to take a break from the chaos of everyday life and revel in the joy of love and togetherness.
