My Love
Zucchero feat. Eric Clapton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nine ways to sorrow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye
I'm waiting
Wild cat in a sad dog story
Nine roads to follow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye
For all the love that's torn us, for us
For all the pain so sweet
Say you won't, say you won't leave
My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
Oh, my love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you, yeah
Lost cat in a dead end story
Nine lines that echo
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye
I'm waiting
Stray cat in a mad dog city
Nine lives to borrow
A moment's all it takes to say goodbye
For all the love before us, for us
For all the pain so sweet
Say you won't, say you won't leave
My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
Oh, my love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you, yeah
Whoa oh, whoa oh
Siamo caduti in volo, mio sole
Siamo caduti in volo
Siamo caduti in volo, mio cielo
Siamo caduti in volo
(Baby don't cry, baby don't cry)
(Baby don't cry, baby don't cry)
Gonna paint this town, for you
Turn it upside down
Say you won't, say you won't leave
My love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you
Oh, my love, the girl that I'm dreamin'
To give me that feeling
Someone just like you, yeah
Oh, my love, I'm dreaming of one girl
Someone to make my world
Someone just like you, yeah
The song "My Love" by Zucchero feat. Eric Clapton is a melancholic love song with animal imagery to describe the difficulties of relationships in a tough environment. The opening lines introduce a "stray cat in a mad dog city" who is faced with "9 ways to sorrow" and how "a moment's all it takes to say goodbye". This line is a metaphor for how fleeting relationships can be in a difficult world. The chorus expresses the singer's desire for a loving relationship with "one girl" who can "make my world" and provide "that feeling".
The animal imagery continues with the "wild cat in a sad dog story" that has "9 roads to follow". This line refers to the different paths that a relationship can take, each with their own unique challenges. The artist expresses his desire for his lover to stay despite the pain and heartbreak they have experienced together in the lines "For all the love that's torn us, for us / For all the pain so sweet / Say you won't, say you won't leave".
The Italian lines at the end of the song is about falling in love with someone so much that it feels like falling from the sky, therefore the ending is talking about how the singer will paint the town for his love, turn it upside down, and asks his love to stay with him. Overall, the song captures the experience of trying to find love in a tough world and the singer's belief that the right person can make everything worthwhile.

Ho sei cose nella mente
E tu non ci sei più
Mi dispiace
Guardo dentro gli occhi della gente
Cosa cerco non so
Forse un uomo
Hey man
Che cammini come me
Dall'altra parte della strada
Hey man
Che sei solo come me
Dall'altra parte della strada
Canta e passa la malinconia
Se si canta in due
Passa meglio
Hey fratello di una notte d'estate
Ci facciamo un po'
Compagnia
Hey man
Che cammini come me
Dall'altra parte della strada
Hey man
Vieni e canta insieme a me
Da questa parte della strada
Che ci facciamo compagnia
Guardo dentro agli occhi della gente
Cosa cerco lo so
Un altro uomo
Hey fratello di una notte d'estate
Ci facciamo un po'
Compagnia
Hey man
Che cammini come me
Dall'altra parte della strada
Hey man
Vieni e canta insieme a me
Da questa parte della strada
Hey man
Che sei solo come me
Dall'altra parte della strada
Hey man
Vieni e canta insieme a me
Da questa parte della strada
Che ci facciamo compagnia

I have six things on my mind,
and you are not there anymore,
I’m sorry.
I look into the eyes of the people;
what I’m looking for, I don’t know,
maybe a man.
Hey man, you who are walking just like me on the other side of the road.
Hey man, you who are lonely just like me on the other side of the road.

Sing a song, and sorrow passes by.
Sing in harmony,
even better.
What d’you say, my friend, some summer night.
Keep me company,
hang together.
2
Hey man, I see you walking just like me
on the far side of the road.
Hey man, come and sing my song with me
on my side of the road.
So that we keep company with each other.
I look into the eyes of the people, (Hey man, don’t you understand?)
what I’m looking for, I don’t know; (I don’t know why)
another man. (I’m gonna miss you. I’m gonna miss you)
Hey, you brother from a summer night, (Hey, man don’t you know)
why don’t we keep company (don’t know why)
with each other a bit? (I’m gonna miss you. I’m gonna miss you)

Hey man, you who are walking just like me on the other side of the road.
Hey man, I see you walking just like me
on the far side of the road.
Hey man, you who are lonely just like me, on the other side of the road, singing.
Hey man, come and sing my song.
Sing.
