Interpretation
The lyrics of the song "Femme aux yeux d'amour" by
Salvatore Adamo are about a woman with "eyes of love". The singer compares this woman to an ocean on whose shores he often dreams. He feels like a shell in the white sand and eagerly awaits the embrace of the waves.
The woman is also referred to as the "air of time", sometimes rain, sometimes sunshine, depending on her mood. Sometimes she intoxicates him with passionate pleasure, and sometimes she even denies him a glance.
The singer is confused whether the woman has said yes or no to him. He tries to understand, but it seems pointless to him. The woman remains an ocean, and he no longer knows from which direction the wind is blowing.
The woman is also described as a flower that can be picked, although she is infinite. She is in the palm of every person. The singer loses himself in her like a poor sailor.
In conclusion, he says that he loves the woman infinitely.
The song is about the complexity and unpredictability of a woman who captivates and confuses the singer. He tries to understand her feelings and thoughts, but fails in his attempt. The metaphors of the ocean, the flower, and the weather give the text a poetic touch and highlight the complexity of the woman.
