In My Heart
Sérgio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
High on a hill it calls to me
to be where little cable cars
climb halfway to the stars!
The morning fog may chill the air,
I don't care!
My love waits there in San Francisco,
above the blue and windy sea.
your golden sun will shine for me!
I left my heart in San Francisco.
High on a hill it calls to me
to be where little cable cars
climb halfway to the stars!
The morning fog may chill the air,
I don't care!
My love waits there in San Francisco,
above the blue and windy sea.
When I come home to you, San Francisco,
your golden sun will shine for me!
The lyrics to Sergio Franchi's song, I Left My Heart in San Francisco, capture the essence of the city's allure as it calls out to the writer's heart from its perch high on a hill. The metaphorical language employed, like the "little cable cars" and "halfway to the stars," adds to the romantic and idyllic portrayal of the city. Despite the cold morning fog, the writer's love waits in San Francisco, and the golden sun will shine upon their arrival.
The song is both a sentimental tribute to the city of San Francisco and a reflection on the emotions that the city can evoke in a person. The writer's heart has been left behind, and the city is calling out to them, beckoning them back. This sense of longing and nostalgia is universal, and it's one of many reasons why the song remains so popular to this day.
