The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Saint" by the artist "Texas"

In the song "Saint" by Texas, the lyrical heroine addresses her lover, expressing her love and devotion, while also encouraging him to dream and maintain childlike spontaneity.

She acknowledges the existence of problems ("I need some time, / I'll make it right..."), but assures him of her love and desire to share her life with him ("Everything in my life — / Is what I will give you here"). The heroine sees the meaning of life in striving for something more ("The meaning of my life — / Is to strive for something!"), and this idea resonates with her call to "catch another dream".

The image of the saint that appears in the song is multifaceted. On the one hand, it is an ironic perception of the heroine in the eyes of her lover ("You think I'm a saint"), on the other hand, it is a metaphor for selfless love ("Stretched out like a saint now / I love you to death!").

An important motif of the song is the contrast between adult prudence and the child's ability to dream. The heroine urges not to "bury your head in the sand," not to ignore dreams, but to remember the "little boy" inside every man who is able to dream and strive for more. She believes that in every man there is an "adult" who is able to make these dreams a reality.
