San Francisco
Revólver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
aunque fuera solo en hojas de papel
cuando llega la humedad lo invade todo
y ese viento que no deja ni un minuto de correr
sabe como un mujer enamorado
de la que uno nunca se acaba de cansar
y te recibe con la piel al aire y limpia
confiando en que recorras hasta su último lugar.
más mañanas que nos vean despertar
Oh oh se que ya no habrán
mañanas que nos vean despertar
Y si Filmore es la calle de mi vida
es tan solo porque allí la vi pasar
ese sitio es como un gran cajón desastre
y aunque todo se revuelva siempre sabes donde estás .
Mientras la lluvia va borrando el espejismo
de felicidad que tengo oh oh oh.
Oh oh se que ya no habrán
más mañanas que nos vean despertar
Oh oh se que ya no habrán
mañanas que nos vean despertar
Y si te sientes como el más triste guisante
atravesando por la noche el Golden Date
imaginas que eres un correcaminos al tomas la 101
dirección San José.
Mientras la lluvia borrando el espejismo
de felicidad que tengo oh oh oh.
Oh oh se que ya no habrán
más mañanas que nos vean despertar
Oh oh se que ya no habrán
mañanas que nos vean despertar
The lyrics of Revólver's song San Francisco depict a sense of nostalgia and longing for a city that the singer knows well. The song starts by describing San Francisco as a well-traveled path, even if only on paper. The humidity that pervades the city and the ever-present wind are compared to a woman one can never tire of, a welcoming presence that invites exploration of every corner of the city. However, the singer contemplates how there will no longer be any more mornings to wake up to and see the city, implying a sense of finality and an ending of a chapter.
The second verse further explores the relationship between the singer and the city, highlighting Filmore as a street that holds particular meaning. The street is described as a metaphorical junk drawer, where everything is thrown in, but one still knows where they are. The rainfall begins to erode the illusion of happiness the singer once had in the city, emphasizing the bittersweet feelings that can come with the passage of time and change.
Overall, the lyrics of San Francisco create a vivid image of a city that holds a special place in the singer's heart, but one which time has changed and made the singer realize that they will never experience it in the same way again.
