Let's go, let's go, etc.
(lyrics and music by Matteo Saggese and Mino Vergnaghi)
Io che parlare non so
delle cose che insegna la vita
non mi dimenticher
le carezze di fragili dita
della poesia dell'amor
che vive nel fondo del cuore
in noi, per noi.
Sar come un angelo
e voler
sopra mari e colline in fiore
nell'immensit
sar come una musica
e suoner per noi.
Magia sar
Io che spiegare non so
il mistero che a volte la vita
non mi dimenticher
la dolcezza e la gioia infinita
nella poesia dell'amor
che vive nel fondo del cuore
in noi, per noi
Sar come un angelo
e voler
fra le nuvole del tramonto
si addormenter
con un canto nell'anima
Magia l'amore sar
e voler
English Translation:
It Will Be Magic
(lyrics & music by Matteo Saggese/Mino Vergnaghi)
Though I can't really speak
about the things that life teaches
I won't forget
the caresses of fragile fingers
And the poetry of love
that lives in the depths of the heart
Within us, for us
It will be like an angel
And it will fly
Over seas and blossoming hills
In the immensity
It will be like music
And it will play for us
It will be magic
Though I can't explain
the mystery that sometimes is life
I won't forget
The sweetness and the infinite joy
Inside the poetry of love
that lives in the depths of the heart
Within us, for us
It will be like an angel
And it will fly
Among the clouds of the sunset
It will fall asleep
With a chant in the soul
Love will be magic
And it will fly
Over villages and cities
It will spread
Among the people of the world
And the dream will carry on
Now and forever
It will be magic
Granada, tierra sonada por mi,
mi cantar se vuelve gitano
cuando es para ti.
Mi cantar, hecho de fantasia;
mi cantar, flor de melancolia,
que yo te vengo a dar.
Granada, tierra ensangretada
en tardes de toros,
mujer que conserva el embrujo
de los ojos moros.
De sueno, rebelde, gitana
cubierta de flores,
y beso tu boca de grana,
jugosa manzana
que me habla de amores.
Granada, manola, cantada
en coplas preciosas,
no tengo otra cosa que darte
que un ramo de roas,
de rosas de suave fragrancia
que le dieran marco a la Virgen morena.
Granada, tu tierra esta llena
de lindas mujere, de sangre y de sol.
Translation:
Granada, land of my dreams,
mine becomes a gypsy song
when I sing to you.
My song, born of fancy;
my song, melancholy flower,
that I've come to offer you.
Granada, land covered in blood
from the bullfighting afternoons,
woman who retains the spell
of Moorish eyes.
A dream-land, a rebel, a gypsy,
covered with flowers,
and I kiss your scarlet mouth,
juicy apple
that tells me about love affairs.
Granada, my beautiful, sung
in precious coplas,
I have nothing else to give you
but a bouquet of roses
worthy of adorning the brown-skinned Virgin.
Granada, your soil is full
(Antonio Galbiati/Jeffrey Franzel/Cheope)
Svegliarsi e poi trovare inoi
una canzone mai sola
quell'armonia pi forte sai
in ogni istante che c'
Sentire che c' un'energia
in ogni nostra parola
che intorno a noi risuona
ormai oltre il silenzio perch
C' sempre musica
da quando vivi dentro me
ogni giorno in pi ora che ci sei tu
Diversa e unica da vivere
senza paure o dubbi ormai
C' sempre musica
E cresce in noi come un fruscio
battito d'ali nell'aria
un vento che ci porta via
come un'orchestra perch
C' sempre musica
c' sempre amore dentro me
e non finir se non vuoi forse mai
Diversa e unica da vivere
senza paure o dubbi ormai
C' sempre musica
C' sempre musica
English Translation:
There's Always Music
(Antonio Galbiati/Jeffrey Franzel/Cheope)
To wake and discover a melody
in our hearts, though not alone,
a harmony that swells in tone
with each moment passing by.
To feel that every spoken phrase
throbs with a power that sings
through the air, making the silence ring
like a bell around us, because
there's always music now
you're living in my heart;
as each day goes by, now there's you,
life is so different, and I can start
living free from all my fears and doubt.
There's always music now.
And it builds like a rustling of leaves,
like the beat of wings through the air
a wind carrying us off somewhere
like an orchestra within us, because
There's always music now
there's always love in my heart
which may never end if you want it to last;
life is so different, and I can start
living free from all my fears and doubt
There's always music now
There's always music now
you're living in my heart;
as each day goes by, now there is you,
life will be so different, now I can start
living free from all my fears and doubt
There's always music now
There's always music now
Ave Maria, gratia plena
Dominus tecum benedicta tu
In mulieribus et benedictus
Fructus ventris tui Jesus

Sancta Maria
Maria, ora pro nobis
Nobis peccatoribus

Nobis peccatoribus

When I am down and oh my soul so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
And I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
There is no life, no life without its hunger
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly
But when you come and I am filled with wonder
Sometimes I think, I glimpse eternity
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
And I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
You raise me up so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas
I am strong when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up to more than I can be
Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate
Cross the mountains and fly over the oceans
Reach the land, find the place where all children go
Every night after listening to this lullaby
There you'll find their heroes alive
Protecting their innocence, bless them all
Their simple soul so pure and so wonderful
Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate
Let this beautiful dream carry on
For all night long
Arpa d'or dei fatidici vati
Perché muta dal salice pendi?
Le memorie nel petto raccendi
Ci favella del tempo del tempo che fu
Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate
Va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli
Ove olezzano tepide e molli
L'aure dolci del suolo natal
Catari, Catari, pecche me dice sti parole amare,
pecche me parle e 'o core me turmiente, Catari?
Nun te scurda ca t'aggio date 'o core, Catari,
nun te scurda!
Catari, Catari, che vene a dicere stu parla ca me da spaseme?
Tu nun'nce pienze a stu dulore mio,
tu nun'nce pienze, tu nun te ne cure.
Core, core, 'ngrato,
t'aie pigliato 'a vita mia,
tutt'e passato e
nun'nce pienze chiu!
TRANSLATION:
UNGRATEFUL HEART
Caterina, Caterina, why do you say those bitter words?
Why do you speak and torment my heart, Caterina?
Don't forget, I gave you my heart, Caterina,
don't forget.
Caterina, Caterina, why do you come and say those words that hurt me so much?
You don't think of my pain,
you don't think, you don't care.
Ungrateful heart,
you have stolen my life.
Everything is finished
The Best That Love Can Be
(RW)
There was a time the fire was burning bright,
And everything was shining in the light.
But when the heart is cold,
Together we're alone,
Thinking of reasons,
To stay awake.
There was a time when love was in our bed,
Eternity in every word we said.
But when desire is gone,
It's hard to carry on.
Going through the motions,
When there's nothing there.
(RW)
You have got my heart and all I want from you.
Ooh, all I want from you.
(Both)
It's just a kiss, before we say goodbye.
(RW)
And let me keep
My memories
(Both)
Of all the times, we were amazing.
And I will keep
(RW)
In memories
(Both)
The best that love can be.
Ooh.
(Both)
It used to be we had so much to say,
Together at the ending of the day.
But when the only words
Are all the ones that hurt.
Try to remember the way we were.
(RW)
Take the past and hold it like a photograph.
I will, I will, I will.
(Both)
'Cause it's the only way to say goodbye.
(Both)
And we will keep
(RW)
The memories
(Both)
Of all the times we were amazing.
And we will keep
In memories.
The best that love can be.
The best that love can be.
Partirono le rondini dal mio paese
Freddo e senza sole
Cercando primavere di viole
Nidi d'amore e di felicita
La mia piccola rondine parti
Senza lasciarmi un bacio
Senza un addio parti
Non ti scordar di me
La vita mia legata e a te
Io t'amo sempre piu
Nel sogno mio rimani tu
Non ti scordar di me
La vita mia legata e a te
C'e sempre un nido nel mio cor per te
Non ti scordar di me
Panis angelicus
Fit panis hominum
Dat panis coelicus
Figures terminum
O res mirabilis
Manducat Dominum
Pauper, pauper
La donna e mobile
qual piuma al vento,
muta d'accento
e di pensiero.
Sempre un'amabile
leggiadro viso,
in pianto o in riso,
e mensognero.
La donna e mobil
qual pium al vento
muta d'accento...
e di pensier....
e di pensier...
e di pensier.
E' sempre misero
chi a lei s'affida,
chi le confida,
mal cauto il core!
Pur mai non sentesi
felice appieno
chi su quel seno,
non liba amore!
La donna e mobil
qual pium al vento
muta d'accento...
e di pensier.
e di pensier...
Nella fantasia io vedo un mondo giusto
Li tutti vivono in pace e in onesta
Lo sogno d'anime che sono sempre libere
Come le nuvole che volano
Pien' d'umanita in fondo all'anima
Nella fantasia io vedo un mondo chiaro
Li anche la notte e meno obscura
Lo sogno d'anime, ecc
Nella fantasia esiste un vento caldo
Miserere, miserere,
miserere, misero me,
pero brindo alla vita!
Ma che mistero, e la mia vita,
che mistero!
Sono un peccatore dell'anno ottantamila,
un menzognero!
Ma dove sono e cosa faccio,
come vivo?
Vivo nell'anima del mondo
perso nel vivere profondo!
Io sono il santo che ti ha tradito
quando eri solo
e vivo altrove e osservo il mondo
dal cielo,
e vedo il mare e le foreste,
vedo me che...
Vido nell'anima del mondo
perso nel vivere profondo!
Se c'e una notte buia abbastanza
da nascondermi, nascondermi,
se c'e una luce, una speranza,
sole maginifico che splendi dentro me
dammi la gioia di vivere
che anchora non c'e!
Miserere, miserere,
quella gioia di vivere
(Lyrics by Angela Lupino, music by Sir Edward Elgar)
We will stand together
Even through the darkest hour
When the night seems never-ending
We know there will be a dawn for us
When the world seems broken
Broken like the hearts within us
Destiny will guide us and we'll dare to raise our eyes to heaven
God will light our way
We shall win the day
We shall win the day...
Then once again the glorious
We will emerge victorious
Until then hand in hand
We'll let history know that..
We will stand together
Even in the darkest moment
Destiny will guide us and we'll dare to raise our eyes to heaven
History will say..
We shall win the day
We shall win the day
I pray You'll be our eyes and watch us where we go
And help us to be wise in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer when we lose our way
Lead us to the place, guide us with Your grace
To a place where we'll be safe
La luce che tu hai
(I pray we'll find Your light
Nel cuore rester
(And hold it in our hearts)
A ricordarci che
(When stars go out each night)
Eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
(Let this be our prayer)
Quanta fede c'
(When shadows fill our day)
Lead us to a place, guide us with Your grace
Give us faith, so we'll be safe
Sogniamo un mondo senza pi violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno lo dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternit
La forza che ci d
(We ask that life be kind)
Il desiderio che
(And watch us from above)
Ognuno trovi amor
(We hope each soul will find)
Intorno e dentro s
(Another soul to love)
Let this be our prayer
(Let this be our prayer)
Just like every child need to find a place
Guide us with Your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
La fede che
Hai acceso in noi
(with Lionel Richie)
When the world is filled with thunder and the winds are storming above,
Deep within the night we wonder if we've lost the magic of love.
But there's something inside us that looks to the sun.
We dream that this light will guide us with love for everyone.
When the birds of war are flying and the clouds are heavy with rain,
Seems as though the skies are crying, and we feel the cold tears of pain.
But there's something inside us that looks to the sun.
We dream that this light will guide us with love for everyone.
Love is there for us, everywhere for us
In the sound of praying, little children playing
Open your heart.
Love to each of us, here in each of us
Constant as the moon glows, or the way the grass grows
Always and forever.
Love is the river that fills every sea,
And it's waters that mirror the way life should be.
When the world is free of thunder, and the skies are peaceful above,
Once again we'll know the wonder of the magic power of love,
Every generation blames the one before
And all of their frustrations come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner to all my father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage to all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could've told him in the living years
Oh, crumpled bits of paper filled with imperfect thoughts
Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got
You say you just don't see it he says it's perfect sense
You just can't get agreement in this present tense
We all talk a different language, talking in defense
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
So we open up a quarrel between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future it's the bitterness that lasts
So don't yield to the fortunes you sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective on a different day
And if you don't give up and don't give in, you may just be okay
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
I wasn't there that morning when my father passed away
I didn't get to tell him all the things I had to say
I think I caught his spirit later that same year
I'm sure I heard his echo in my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
Say it loud, say it clear
Say it loud, say it clear
Say it loud, say it clear
(In Napoli where love is King, when boy meets girl,
here's what they say)
When the moon hits your eye like a big-a pizza pie
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you've had too much
wine
That's amore
Bells'll ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"
Hearts'll play tippi-tippi-tay, tippi-tippi-tay
Like a gay tarantella
When the stars make you drool joost-a like pasta fazool
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet,
you're in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you're not
dreamin', signore
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
If you get to here before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all the people that I'm comin'too
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Il tempo passa senza che
Lo passo mai insieme ate
Ma ti pensavo sempre
Nei sogni tu con me
Per me il mondo finira
Se non ci fossi tu
Ovunque vai
Voglio che sai
If you need a friend or a lover
Or a place that you can hide
I will always be there
Even though my hands are tied
I know deep down inside
If you'd consider what we shared
Maybe you'll see
You're all that I need
E'una vita che cercando a te
E non importa che io senta per te
Soltanto una notte ancor
Chiamami amor
All of my life
All my life
I've been searching
For someone like you
There's never been a better time
There's never been a better place
For you and I together here
Alone and face to face
Oh, I'd do anything
If you'd just let me in your life
Whatever it takes
I won't make the same mistake again
E'una vita che cercando a te
E non importa che io senta per te
Soltanto una notte ancor
Chiamami amor
All of my life
All my life
I've been searching
For someone like you
Could it be the brightest star
So close, yet, still far away
Don't you know I've fallen for you
Baby, I'm calling for you
Right here, right now
E'una vita che cercando a te
E non importa che io senta per te
Soltanto una notte ancor
Chiamami amor
All of my life
All of my life
I've been searching
For someone like you
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though its breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, youll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
Youll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
Thats the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
Youll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
Thats the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
Youll find that life is still worthwhile
Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento.
Placida e l'onda, prospero il vento.
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
O dolce Napoli, o suol beato,
ove sorridere volle il creato!
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
English translation:
The silver star shines on the sea,
the waves are gentle, the wind is favourable.
Come to my swift little boat!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
O dear Naples, o blessed land,
where creation was pleased to smile!
Come to my swift little boat!
Nothing I must do
Nowhere I should be
No one in my life
To answer to, but me
No more candlelights
No more purple skies
No one to be near
As my heart slowly dies
Chorus:
If I could hold you one more time
Like in the days when you were mine
I'd look at you
Till I was blind
So you would stay
I'd say a prayer each time you smile
Cradle the moments like a child
I'd stop the world if only I
Could hold you one more time
one more time. . .
I've memorized your face
I know your touch by heart
Still lost in your embrace
I dream of where you are
O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt His worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder beams a new and glorious morn
CHORUS:
Fall on your knees
Oh, hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine
O night, O night divine
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here came the wise men from the Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
If a love as strong as ours
Couldn't make it all the way
Can anything make sense at all?
If a love so deep and true
Couldn't stand the test of time
Then Mount Everest could slide
And Jerusalem could fall
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
I relived our final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around
Does it matter who was right?
There's no justice in a dream
Never thought a heart could break
Without making any sound
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Our love was as certain as the dawn
As solid and safe as it ever could be
Our love was a star you wish upon
And you thought that I said "you"
I could have sworn that you say "me"
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Let there be you,
Let there be me.
Let there be oysters
Under the sea.
Let there be wind,
An occassional rain.
Chile con carne,
Sparkling champagne
Let there be birds
To sing in the trees,
Someone to bless me
Whenever I sneeze.
Let there be cuckoos,
A lark and a dove,
But first of all, please
Let there be love.
Let there be cuckoos,
A lark and a dove,
But first of all, please
(lyrics by Frank Musker, music by Ronan Hardiman)
Born with the voice of an angel
A boy with the earth on his hands
For this child of the lowly
Fate had made other plans
He was only a man of the people
With barely his clothes to his name
But when he sang - there was magic
Touched by love's sacred flame
La fiamma sacra
Chorus
Holy fire in his soul
Born to conquer the dark
A man who came â to carry the flame
Awakening â la fiamma sacra
He sang to the soul of a nation
A voice for the meek and the strong
A world of fabulous stories
Came to life in his song
With a gift for the whole of creation
He gave not for fortune or fame
A simple man â blessed with magic
Touched by love's sacred flame
La fiamma sacra
Chorus
Holy fire in his soul
Born to conquer the dark
A man who came â to carry the flame
With a voice that can speak â to the heart
Holy fire in his soul
Born to conquer the dark
A man who came â to carry the flame
When I was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
Wed hide from the lights
On the village green
When I was seventeen
When I was twenty-one
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stair
With all that perfumed hair
And it came undone
When I was twenty-one
When I was thirty-five
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
Wed ride in limousines
Their chauffeurs would drive
When I was thirty-five
But now the days grow short
Im in the autumn of the year
And now I think of my life as vintage wine
>from fine old kegs
>from the brim to the dregs
And it poured sweet and clear
It was a very good year
I'll walk with God from this day on
His helping hand, I'll lean upon
This is my prayer, my humble plea
May the Lord be ever with me
There is no death, though eyes grow dim
There is no fear when I'm near to Him
I'll lean on Him forever
And He'll forsake me never
He will not fail me
As long as my faith is strong
Whatever road I may walk along
I'll walk with God, I'll take His hand
I'll talk with God, He'll understand
I'll pray to Him, each day to Him
And He'll hear the words that I say
His hand will guide my throne and rod
And I'll never walk alone
(Lyrics by Vicenzo Russo, Music by Eduardo Di Capua)
Ah ! che bell'aria fresca
ch'addora e malvarosa.
E tu durmenno staje
ncopp'a sti ffronne 'e rosa.
'O sole a poco a poco
pe 'stu ciardino sponta;
'o viento passa e vasa
'stu ricciulillo 'nfronta.
'I te vurria vasa'...
'I te vurria vasa'...
Ma 'o core nun m' 'o
ddice 'e te sceta'.
'I me vurria addurmi'
'I me vurria addurmi'
vicino 'o sciato tujo
n'ora pur'i'!
Sento 'stu core tujo
che sbatte comm' 'a ll'onne.
Durmenno, angelo mio,
chi sa tu a chi te suonne!
'A gelusia turmenta
'stu core mio malato;
te suonne a me? Dimmello...
O pure suonne a n'ato?
'I te vurria vasa'...
'I te vurria vasa'...
Ma 'o core nun m' 'o

'I me vurria addurmi'
'I me vurria addurmi'
vicino 'o sciato tujo
n'ora pur'i'!
English Translation:
I Long To Kiss You
(Lyrics by Vicenzo Russo, Music by Eduardo Di Capua)
A welcome breath of air
carries the hollyhocks' scent.
I watch you sleeping there,
fragrant roses for your bed.
The sun has slowly climbed
and is warming the garden now;
a gentle wind wafts by,
kissing the curl on your brow.
I long to kiss you...
I long to kiss you...
But I don't have the heart
to wake you.
I long to drift asleep
I long to drift asleep
for an hour, close enough
to feel your breath!
I can hear your heart as it drums
pounding like the waves of the deep.
My darling, who walks your dreams
while you are sound asleep?
My heart is troubled and insecure -
I'm sick with jealousy.
Do you dream of another? I can't endure
the thought you're not dreaming of me.
I long to kiss you...
I long to kiss you...
But I don't have the heart
to wake you.
I long to drift asleep
I long to drift asleep
for an hour, close enough
Share my life, take me for what I am
'Cause I'll never change all my colors for you
Take my love, I'll never ask for too much
Just all that you are and everything that you do
I don't really need to look very much further
I don't wanna have to go where you don't follow
I won't hold it back again, this passion inside
I can't run from myself, there's nowhere to hide
Don't make me close one more door, I don't wanna hurt anymore
Stay in my arms if you dare, must I imagine you there
Don't walk away from me
I have nothing, nothing, nothing if I don't have you, you, you, you
You see through, right through the heart of me
You break down my walls with the strength of your love
I never knew love like I've known it with you
Will a memory survive, one I can hold on to?
I don't really need to look very much further
I don't wanna have to go where you don't follow
I won't hold it back again, this passion inside
I can't run from myself, there's nowhere to hide
Your love I'll remember forever
Don't make me close one more door, I don't wanna hurt anymore
Stay in my arms if you dare, must I imagine you there
Don't walk away from me, no
I have nothing, nothing, nothing
Don't make me close one more door, I don't wanna hurt anymore
Stay in my arms if you dare, must I imagine you there
Don't walk away from me, no
Don't walk away from me, don't you dare walk away from me
I have nothing, nothing, nothing if I don't have you, you
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I say would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows (Oh)
To the sea (Oh)
So it goes
Some things are meant to be Take my hand (take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
For I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows (Oh)
To the sea (Oh)
So it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand (take my hand)
Take my whole life too (life too)
for I can't help falling in love with you
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I can feel the change in the wind right now
Nothings in my way
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No there not gonna hold me down
Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith
Faith of the heart
It's been a long night
Trying to find my way
Been through the darkness
Now I finally have my day
I will see my dream come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No there not gonna change my mind
Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
Faith of the heart
I've known a wind so cold and seen the darkest days
But now the winds I feel are only winds of change
I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain
But I'll be fine
Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
Faith of the heart
Faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
That no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith
Faith of the heart
Qui dove il mare luccica
E tira forte il vento
Su una vecchia terrazza
Davanti al golfo di Surriento
Un uomo abbraccia una ragazza
Dopo che aveva pianto
Poi si schiarisce la voce
E ricomincia il canto
Te voglio bene assai
Ma tanto tanto bene sai
E una catena ormai
Che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai
Vide le luci in mezzo al mare
Penso alle notti la in America
Ma erano solo le lampare
E la bianca scia d'un elica
Senti il dolore nella musica
E si alzo dal pianoforte ma quando
Vide la luna uscire da una nuvola
Gli sembro piu dolce anche la morte
Guardo negli occhi la ragazza
Quegli occhi verdi come il mare
Poi all'improvviso usci una lacrima
E lui credette di affogare
Te voglio bene assai ecc
Poi penso alla lirica, e al grande palco
Che con un po' di trucco e con la mimica
Puoi diventare un altro ma due occhi
Che ti guardano, cosi vicini e veri
Ti fan scordare le parole
O in fondo i tuoi pensieri
Cosi diventa tutto piccolo
Anche le notti la in America
Ti volti e vedi la tua vita
Come la scia d'un elica
Ma si, e la vita che finisce
Ma lui non ci pensava tanto
Anzi, si sentiva gia felice
E ricomincio il suo canto
Born free, as free as the wind blows
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart
Live free and beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star
Stay free, where no walls divide you
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide
Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
'cause you're born free
(Stay free, where no walls divide you)
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide
Born free, and life is worth living
But only worth living
Amor ti vieta di non amar.
La man tua lieve, che mi respinge,
cercava la stretta della mia man:
la tua pupilla esprime: T'amo
se il labbro dice: Non t'amero!
Translation
Love forbids you not to love
That gentle hand that repulses me
sought the pressure of my hand;
your eye says: I love you,
You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see you're everything I'd hoped for
You're everything I need
You are so beautiful to me
Such joy and happiness you bring
Such joy and happiness you bring
Like a dream
A guiding light that shines in the night
Heaven's gift to me
(from Captain Corelli's Mandolin)
Ricordo ancor
in fondo al cuor
il lacrimar per te
t'invoco ancor in sogno con me
il tuo volto tra i mieli sguardi
rubati al mondo sol' per te
lo saro per te un fiume
di neve bianca che si sciogliera
al sloe dei tuoi occhi di primavera
Guardami ancora
Translation:
I still remember crying
from the depths of my heart for you
I still call for you in my dreams
your face among images
stolen form the world, just for you
For you I will be a river
of white snow melting
L'aurora di bianco vestita
Già l'uscio dischiude al gran sol
Di già con le rosee sue dita
Carezza de' fiori lo stuol
Commosso da un fremito arcano
Intorno il creato già par
E tu non ti desti, ed invano
Mi sto qui dolente a cantar
Metti anche tu la veste bianca
E schiudi l'uscio al tuo cantor
Ove non sei la luce manca
Ove tu sei nasce l'amor
from opera Tosca
E lucevan le stelle
ed olezzava la terra
stridea l'uscio dell'orto
e un passo sfiorava la rena.
Entrava ella, fragrante,
mi cadea fra le braccia.
Oh! dolce baci, o languide carezze,
mentr'io fremente
le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
Svani per sempre il sogno mio d'amore
L'ora e fuggita
e muoio disperato!
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!
Che gelida manina,
se la lasci riscaldar.
Cercar che giova ?
Al buio non si trova.
Ma per fortuna
e una notte di luna,
e qui la luna
l'abbiamo vicina.
Aspetti, signorina,
le diro con due parole
chi son, chi son, e che faccio,come vivo. Vuole?
Chi son, chi son? Sono un poeta.
Che cosa faccio? Scrivo.
E come vivo? Vivo.
In poverata mia lieta
scialo da gran signore
rime ed inni d'amore.
Per sogni e per chimere
e per castelli in aria,
l'anima ho millionaria.
Talor dal mio forziere
ruban tutti i gioelli
due ladri, gli occhi belli.
V'entrar con voi pur ora,
ed i miei soni usati
e i bei sogni miei,
tosto si diliguar!
Ma il furto non m'accora
poiche, poiche v'ha preso stanza
la speranza!
Or che mi conoscete,
parlate voi, deh! Parlate. Chi siete?
Se quel guerriero io fossi
Se il mio sogno si avverasse!...
Un esercito di prodi da me guidato...
e la vittoria
e il plauso di Menfi tutta!
E a te, mia dolce Aida,
tornar di lauri cinto...
Dirti, per te ho pugnato,
e per te ho vinto!
Celeste Aida, forma divina,
mistico serto di luce fior,
del mio pensiero tu sei regina,
tu di mia vita sei lo splendor.
Il tuo bel cielo vorrei ridarti,
le dolci brezze del patrio suol,
un regal serto sul crin posarti,
ergerti un trono vicino al sol.
Celeste Aida, forma divina,
mistico raggio di luce fior,
del mio pensiero tu sei regina,
tu di mia vita sei lo splendor.
Il tuo bel cielo vorrei ridarti,
le dolci brezze del patrio suol,
un regal serto sul crin posarti,
There's a place for us,
Somewhere a place for us.
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere.
There's a time for us,
Some day a time for us,
Time together with time to spare,
Time to look, time to spend,
Some day!
Somewhere.
We'll find a new way of living,
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere . . .
There's a place for us,
A time and place for us.
Hold my hand and we're halfway there.
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow,
(lyrics by Russell Watson & Angela Lupino, music by Carter Burwell)
(based on the theme from the motion picture Rob Roy)
As the sun goes down
On another day
I know you'll still be there for me
I know how hard you try
I know your day is long
I can see it your eyes
Sometimes you can't go on
And yet still you're here for me
Places we have been
Sunsets we will see
Over seas and cross the lands
I know that you'll be there for me
As the sun goes down
And the times roll on
I know you'll still be there for me
Though there are nights so cold
I know your love it grows
And our hearts will never die
Two souls entwined as one
Like an endless galaxy
Like the stars that shine
In a moonlit sky
That reminds me of your eyes
As I gaze at thee
You make me feel so young
You make me feel like spring has sprung
Every time I see you grin
Im such a happy individual
The moment that you speak
I want to go and play hide-and-seek
I want to go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon
You and i, are just like a couple of tots
Running across the meadow
Picking up lots of forget-me-nots
You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung, and a wonderful fling to be flung
And even when Im old and gray
Im gonna feel the way I do today
It's been a long road
Getting from there to here
It's been a long time
But my time is finally near
And I can feel the change in the wind right now
Nothing's in my way
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No, they're not gonna hold me down
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith, faith of the heart
It's been a long night
Trying to find my way
Been through the darkness
Now I finally have my day
And I will see my dream come alive at last
I will touch the sky
And they're not gonna hold me down no more
No, they're not gonna change my mind
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith, faith of the heart
I've known the wind so cold, I've seen the darkest days
But now the winds I feel, are only winds of change
I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain
But I'll be fine
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got faith to believe
I can do anything
I've got strength of the soul
And no one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
'Cause I've got faith of the heart
I'm going where my heart will take me
I've got strength of the soul
No one's gonna bend or break me
I can reach any star
I've got faith
I've got faith, faith of the heart
When I fall in love
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world
Like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many
Moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart
I give it completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Penso che un sogno così non ritorni mai più:
mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu,
poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
e incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito...
Volare... oh, oh!...
cantare... oh, oh, oh, oh!
nel blu, dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassù.
E volavo, volavo felice
più in alto del sole ed ancora più in su,
mentre il mondo pian piano
spariva lontano laggiù,
una musica dolce suonava
soltanto per me...
Volare... oh, oh!...
cantare... oh, oh, oh, oh!
nel blu, dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassù.
una musica dolce suonava
soltanto per me
Volare... oh, oh!...
cantare... oh, oh, oh, oh!
nel blu, dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassù.
una musica dolce suonava
soltanto per me
Volare... oh, oh!...
cantare... oh, oh, oh, oh!
nel blu, dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassù.
Volare... oh, oh!...
We walked in the cold air
Freezing breath on a window pane
Lying and waiting
A man in the dark in a picture frame
So mystic and soulful
A voice reaching out in a piercing cry
It stays with you until
The feeling has got only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh Vienna
The music is weaving
Haunting those pizzicato strings
The rhythm is calling
Alone in the night as the daylight brings
A cool empty silence
The warmth of your hand and the cold gray sky
It fades to the distance
The image has got only you and I
It means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh Vienna
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh Vienna
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Unforgettable, thats what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, thats how youll stay
Thats why, darling, its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, thats how youll stay
Thats why, darling, its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Il buio paura non mi fa,
il mio cour nonsi spezzera.
Non hai bisono di chiedermi
di armarti e poi restare qui.
(Chorus)
Tutto sei per me,
non mi lasciare mai!
Tutto sei per me,
soltanto tu ormai...
Cantero per te,
vivro per te!
Non cambiare mai,
tutto sei per me!
E se io piango, piangi pure tu!
Nel mio futuro saremo in due
Se guardote, vedo che poi
sara felicita per noi.
(Chorus)
Abbraciati a te travo armonia,
a te non manca amore che ti ho nel cuor...
Ti voglio, ho bisogno di stare con te!
Non piangerai, finche dio respiro
avro voglia d'amanti, spero che lo sai!
(Chorus to fade)
English translation:
I'm not afraid of the dark,
my heart won't break.
You don't need to ask me
to love you and then stay here.
(Chorus)
You are evrything to me,
never leave me!
You are everything to me,
only you from now on...
I'll sing for you,
I'll live for you!
Nver change,
you are everything to me!
And if I weep, you weep too!
My future is to be with you.
If i look at you, I see
that there will be happiness for us both.
(Chorus)
In your embrace there's a harmony,
my heart is full of love for yoy...
I want you, I need to be with you!
You won't weep, till my last breath
I'll want to love you, I hope you know!
If you dont know me by now
You will never never never know me
All the things that weve been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference between right and wrong
I aint gonna do nothing to upset our happy home
Oh dont get so excited when I come home a little late
at night
Cos we only act like children when we argue fuss and
fight

You will never never never know me (no you wont)
If you dont know me by now
You will never never never know me
Weve all got our own funny moods
Ive got mine, woman youve got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as weve been together it should be so easy to
Just get yourself together or we might as well say
goodbye
What good is a love affair when you cant see eye to
eye, oh
If you dont know me by now (if you dont know me)
You will never never never know me (no you wont)
If you dont know me by now (you will never never never

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
In the desert where almost nothing grows
You'll find the most beautiful rose
Takes its name from Jericho, a miracle of life
I know a place I can't deny
Where even a Jericho rose would die
The desert of your heart's
Where I am trying to survive
Can't control this, can't let go this
Feeling is all I have, I know that
I could build a tower out of steel and stone
But trying to build a bridge to you
Is something I can't seem to do
If I could turn this dust to gold, you'd see it clearly
Trying to earn your love is just like
Trying to learn the art of alchemy
Measure of a woman's heart
Is just how deep and just how far
A secret can be kept
Till it is only distant memory
My emotions fall on stony ground
I wear them just like hand-me-downs
Because I know the secret is the love
That you have for me
I can't believe, can hardly breathe
Without you by my side, I know that
I could build a tower out of steel and stone
But trying to build a bridge to you
Is something I can't seem to do
If I could turn this dust to gold, you'd see it clearly
Trying to earn your love is just like
Trying to learn the art of alchemy
How could life be the same
If I find I loved in vain
The dream I have every night
Is to wake with you by my side
I could build a tower out of steel and stone
But trying to build a bridge to you
Is something I can't seem to do
If I could turn this dust to gold, you'd see it clearly
Trying to earn your love is just like
Trying to learn the art of alchemy
Trying to earn your love is just like
Trying to learn the art of alchemy
That's life, that's what all the people say.
You're riding high in April,
Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
When I'm back on top, back on top in June.
I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks,
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning around
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself, flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.
That's life
I tell ya, I can't deny it,
I thought of quitting baby,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it.
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king.
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here july
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wondring in the night
What were the chances wed be sharing love
Before the night was through.
Something in your eyes was so inviting,
Something in you smile was so exciting,
Something in my heart,
Told me I must have you.
Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and -
Ever since that night weve been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay,
The glory that was Rome is just another day,
I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan,
I'm going home to my city by the bay.
[Chorus:]
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
I'm searching for the soul I'm meant to share my soul with
I'm looking for the cure to this emptiness
Sometimes it seems so out of reach
Finding the one, the one who completes me
So I pray for the love that will save me
So I wait for the hours that will lift me
So I wait for the eyes that will tell me
I am whole, I am whole
And I wait for my life to be changed with one look, one touch
I pray for the love
(Pray for the love)
(Pray for the love)
For somebody in my life to walk across this life with
For someone to shield my heart from the loneliness
Share all my dreams, share all my time
Wait for the one who's waiting to find me
So I pray for the love that will save me
And I wait for the hours that will lift me
And I wait for the eyes that will tell me
I am whole, I am whole
And I wait for my life to be changed with one look, one touch
Pray for the love to fill my soul
You want to walk through this life all alone
So I pray for the love that will save me
And I wait for the hours that will lift me
And I wait for the eyes that will tell me
I am whole, I am whole
And I wait for my life to be changed with one look, one touch
Pray for the love that will save me
So I wait for the hours that will lift me
So I wait for the eyes that will tell me
I am whole, I am whole
And I wait for my life to be changed with one look, one touch
Pray for the love
Pray for the love that will save me
So I wait for the hours that will lift me
(So I wait for the eyes that will tell me)
I am whole, I am whole
And I wait for my life to be changed with one look, one touch

Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole.
Ma n'atu sole
cchiù bello, oje ne'.
O sole mio
sta 'nfronte a te!
O sole
O sole mio
sta 'nfronte a te!
sta 'nfronte a te!
Quanno fa notte e 'o sole se ne scenne,
me vene quase 'na malincunia;
sotto 'a fenesta toia restarria
quanno fa notte e 'o sole se ne scenne.
Ma n'atu sole
cchiù bello, oje ne'.
O sole mio
sta 'nfronte a te!
O sole
O sole mio
Cosi comanda Turandot:
Questa notte nessun dorma in Pekino!
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o Principessa,
Nella tua fredda stanza
guardi le stelle che tremano
dâamore e di speranza!
Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me,
il nome mio nessun sapra!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diro,
quando la luce splendera!
Ed il mio bacio sciogliera
il silenzio che ti fa mia!
ll nome suo nessun sapra
E noi dovrem, ahime! Morir! Morir!
Dilegua, o notte! Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle! Allâalba vincero!
Vincero! Vincero!
Translation:
This is Turandot's order:
This night no man will sleep in Peking!
No man will sleep! No man will sleep!
No man will sleep! No man will sleep!
You too, o Princess,
in your virginal room,
watch the stars
trembling with love and hope!
But my secret lies hidden within me,
no one shall discover my name!
Oh no, I will reveal it only on your lips
when daylight shines forth!
And my kiss shall break
the silence that makes you mine!
Nobody will discover his name
And we shall have to die, alas! Die!
Depart, o night! Set, you stars!
Set, you stars! At dawn I shall win!
Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now
We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty and no one knows she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the juke box plays our favorite songs
Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now
We gotta be extra careful
That we don't build our hopes up too high
'Cause she's got her own obligations
And so do I
Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now
Well, it's time for us to be leaving
And it hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
And now she'll go her way and I'll go mine
But tomorrow we'll meet
The same place, the same time
Me and Mrs. Jones
Same place
We both know that it's wrong
Same time
Every day at the same cafe
Same place
We got a thing going on
We know it's wrong
Rise and shine
Wake up your sleepy end
'Cause now it's time
To leave your cozy bed
As the dawn is waking
And your adventure is waiting
Walking hand in hand
Out of Christmas time and into wonderland
With your best friend
Your dream has just come true and won't believe it's you
It's happening too
You're lost in the snow
As night time falls
You cry in your darkest fear
You think you've lost your friend
Who will dry your tears
But a new life is dawning
And a new day is calling
Walking hand in hand
Out of Christmas time and into wonderland
With your best friend
Your dream has just come true and you can't believe it's you
That holds a dream
You're lost in the snow
You're lost in the snow
Told you feel lost without hurt
Soon the night time will be over
And you'll be walking hand in hand
Out of Christmas time and into wonderland
With your best friend
Your dream has just come true and you won't believe it's you
It's happening too
You're lost in the snow
How did I wake up each day,
Before that moment I saw your face
Where was I before your touch
Nowhere is where I was without you.
Without you in, my life was just a lie,
Before you I don't know how I got by.
Before I met you, before I held you in the night,
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right,
I was hurt for life.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life
I got through it baby,
But I don't know how I got by.
How did I get through those nights
Before that moment I held you tight.
Where was I before your kiss
How did I exist without you.
Life had no meaning, no reason and no rhyme,
Before you I don't know how I got by.
Before I met you, before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life,
I got through it baby,
But I don't know how I got by.
I thank God when I wake up,
I'm waking next to you.
I don't know what I was living for, before you,
before you whoooah!!!
Before I met you, before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived.
Before I found you, before you made everything right,
I was hurt for life.
Wasn't really living 'til you came into my life
I got through it baby,
One day I'll hear the laugh of children
In a world where war has been banned
One day I'll see men of all colors
Sharing worlds of love and devotion
Stand up and feel the Holy Spirit
Find the power of your faith
Open your heart to those who need you
In the name of love and devotion
Yes, I believe, I believe in the people of all nations
To join and to care for love
I believe in a world where light will guide us
And giving our love we'll make heaven on earth
I believe in the people of all nations
To join and to care for love
I believe in a world where light will guide us
And giving our love we'll make heaven on earth
Yes, I believe, I believe in the people of all nations
To join and to care for love
I believe in a world where light will guide us
And giving our love we'll make heaven on earth
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans
Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk
(Organ solo)
Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain
Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Oh the morning sun in all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
And you fill my life with laughter
You can make it better
Ease my troubles that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
And it shines like the sun
At the end of the day we will give thanks
And pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Take away my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that's what you do
Fill my life with gladness
Take away my sadness
Sei venuta in sogno a me un dì lontano,
mi hai detto questo sarà il tuo futuro,
e giustizia sarà fatta per tua mano
contro un figlio spietato e corrotto.
Un comandante si ritroverà schiavo,
e uno schiavo diventerà un gladiatore.
E attraversando le terre e il dolore
sfiderà anche l'imperatore.
Morir per te
è il mio destino.
Roma la bella dea
per me ha deciso.
Nel silenzio ma con l'anima forte
sento che il tempo mi trascina alla morte.
Ho visto troppo scempio e il cuore mio langue.
Vendicherò i miei fratelli col sangue.
Questo prometto a te.
Morir per te...
Giuro per sempre a te
di viver, morire per te.
Se tu sarai con me lo so,
Dea Roma, vincerò.
E la vittoria sarà la mia.
Dea Roma, vincerò.
Io vincerò.
English Translation:
You came to me in a dream long ago,
and told me this would be your future,
that justice would be done by your hand
against a wicked, corrupt son.
A leader would find himself enslaved
and a slave would become a gladiator.
And throughout the land, despite his grief,
he would challenge even the emperor himself.
My destiny is
to die for you,
the lovely goddess Rome
has decreed it.
In silence but strong of spirit
I feel time dragging me towards death.
I have seen too much killing and my heart despairs.
I shall avenge my brothers with bloodshed.
I promise you this.
My destiny...
I swear an eternal vow to you
to live and die for you.
If you are with me, goddess Rome,
I know I shall win.
And victory will be mine.
I shall win, goddess Rome.
Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words baby kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing forevermore
Because you are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words I love you
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words hold my hand
In other words please just kiss me
Why won't you fill my heart with song
And let me sing forevermore
Because you are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
To you I'm just a friend
That's where it ends
To you
That's who I am
Someone that you can come to
When somebody breaks your heart to talk to
Someone who always cares
Your heart's with someone else
But who's always there
Who's always there to catch the tears
When they fall
Who do you run to
Who do you always call
Who's there with the shoulder when you're feeling sad
When will you see me as more than that
Who's always there to catch the tears
To me You're everything
You're all I need
To me
That's who I see
Someone I love to run to
To hold in my arms and I like to come to
Someone to share my life
Your heart's with someone else
But who's standing by
Who's standing by to catch the tears
When they fall
Who do you run to
Who do you always call
Who's there with the shoulder when you're feeling sad
When will you see me as more than that
Was always there to catch the tears
Oh I wish you would see me as more than just a friend
You come to
When somebody breaks your heart to talk to
Someone who always care
Your heart's with someone else
But who's always there
Who's always there to catch the tears
When they fall
Who do you run to
Who do you always call
Who's there with the shoulder when you're feeling sad
When will you see me as more than that
Who's always there to catch the tears
Who's always there to catch the tears
When youre weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
Im on your side. when times get rough
And friends just cant be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
When youre down and out,
When youre on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
Ill take your part.
When darkness comes
And pains is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
Im sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide, No escape from reality
Open your eyes, Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go, Little high, little low
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to
Mama, just killed a man, Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh, Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time
Goodbye, ev'rybody, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooh, I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very fright'ning me
(Galileo.) Galileo. (Galileo.) Galileo, Galileo figaro
Magnifico. I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let me go.) Will not let you go
(Let me go.) Will not let you go. (Let me go.) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
(Oh mama mia, mama mia.) Mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
Nothing really matters, Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

A few of your buddies they sure look shady
Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist
Aimin' straight at your back
And I don't think they'll miss

All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)

They come to my house again and again and again and

So are they there to see my woman
I don't even be home but they just keep on comin'
What can I do to get on the right track
I wish they'd take some of these knives off my back
(What they do)

All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers (back stabbers)
Low down... dirty...

Smiling faces... smiling faces sometimes

I don't need... low down, dirty bastards
(lyrics by Felice DI SALVO/ music by Roberto PACCO)
Per non buttare via le lacrime che ho pianto
alzarmi ancora in volo e darmi un senso anche da solo
con questa musica che canto senza te
ma il mio teatro è vuoto e questa folla è mutaâ¦
Eppure sai, non ti ho scordata
e fino a ieri musica eri stata
ed è per questo che, io che non ho mai finto
da solo mi son chiesto
adesso per chi canto�
Amore e musica
sono di nuovo qua
per quanto fiato avrò
la voce e l'anima è tutto quel che hoâ¦.
è tutto quel che hoâ¦. è tutto quel che hoâ¦..
Per non buttare via la mia disperazione
per non toccare il fondo e farne una canzoneâ¦
amore e musica che fanno il girotondo
di nuovo son per mano,
in questo mio teatro pieno
ho ritrovato me
ho ritrovato â¦.
Amore e musica
sono di nuovo qua
per quanto fiato avrò
la voce e l'anima è tutto quel che hoâ¦.
è tutto quel che hoâ¦. è tutto quel che hoâ¦..
Amore e musicaâ¦.
come due cuori affiatati nei cori farò⦠io farò
del tuo canto il vanto mio
e il nostro incanto
fari accesi contro il buio
come teneri amanti
gli occhi lucidi in platea
e noi fra tanti.
Amore e musica ancora son per mano
se nel mio teatro pieno io
ho ritrovato⦠ho ritrovato te
Amore e Musica.
English Translation:
LOVE AND MUSIC
(lyrics: Felice Di Salvo/music: Roberto Pacco)
I don't want to waste all these tears I've shed
I want to fly and make it all alone
With this song I'm singing without you
But my theatre is empty and this crowd is silent
And yet you know so well I haven't forgotten you
Because till yesterday you were music to me
And that's why, never pretending,
I asked myself: âwho am I singing for now?â
Love and music
I'm here again
Till my last breath
My voice and my soul are everything I have
I don't want to waste my desperation
Don't want to hit rock bottom and write a song
Love and music on the merry-go round
Are hand in hand once again
In this crowded theatre
I've found myself again
I've found myself
Love and musicâ¦
In the choir I'll be like two hearts beating as one
As your song will be my pride
And our charm
Headlights on towards the darkness,
Like tender lovers
Wet eyes in the audience
And us, lost in the crowd
Love and music are still hand in hand
If in my crowded theatre
I've found you againâ¦.Found you again
