Perry Como In Italy Lyrics
1.Souvenir D'italie

The moonlight reflected the mediterranean splendour,
The silvery sand was a magical carpet of white,
We shared with each other our kisses and willing surrender,
And promised each other that we would remember that night.

Then we had to part broken hearted,
You gave me a shell as we parted . . .
You told me to listen,
For it had a message for me.

Pretty shell that we found by the sea,
Souvenir d'italie!

Pretty shell that i took home with me,
Souvenir d'italie!

Even though we are so far apart,
Still the shell speaks to me,
And a voice that is yours,
Calls me back to your shores,
Voice of love . . .
Souvenir d'italie!

< instrumental verse >

Ma perch?non mi fai pi?dormire
Solo tu, me lo puoi dire.
Te ne sei andata cos?E mi lasci partire,
Souvenir, souvenir d'italie!


2.Oh Marie

Devo guardare fuori dalla finestra.
Fammi affacciare, maria
Che stai in mezzo alla strada
Ed ?tutto da vedere.
Non trovo neanche uñ ora di pace,
Di notte faccio giorno
E passo tutto il giorno sperando di parlarti.

Hei maria, hei maria
Quanto sonno ho perso per t?
Fammi dormire
Tutta la notte abbracciato con t?

Hei maria, ( hei maria ), hei maria, ( hei maria ),
Quanto sonno ho perso per t?
Fammi dormire,
Hei maria, hei maria

( hei maria ), hei maria, ( hei maria ), hei maria,
( quanto sonno ho perso per t?. . . )
Fammi dormire
Tutta la notte abbracciato con t?

Hei maria, hei maria
Quanto sonno ho perso per t?
Fammi dormire
Hei maria, ( hei maria ), hei maria . . .

( hei maria )


3.Cominciamo Ad Amarci

Cominciamo ad amarci questa sera.
Cominciamo con un bacio piano piano.
Poi diremo le cose di sempre
Ma saranno come nuove per noi.

Cominciamo ad amarci per la vita.
Cominciamo a tenerci per la mano.
Ed andremo padroni delmondo
Innammorati, innammorati cos?
< instrumental verse >

Cominciamo ad amarci per la vita.
Cominciamo a tenerci per la mano.
Ed andremo padroni delmondo
Innammorati, innammorati cos?. . .
Cos? cos? . . .


4.Love Theme From 'la Strada'

( traveling down a lonely road )

Why am i alone?
Why am i alone,
Traveling down a lonely road?

Darling, can't you see?
I don't wanna be,
Traveling down a lonely road.

If you would open up your heart
And let my love come shining through,
You'd know how much
I wanna walk the road with you . . .

Won't you understand?
Won't you take my hand?
It's been such a lonely road . . .

< chorus italian lyrics >

If you would open up your heart
And let my love come shining through,
You'd know how much
I wanna walk the road with you . . .

Won't you understand?
Won't you take my hand?
It's been such a lonely road . . .

Such a lonely road . . .


5.Forget Domani

( let's forget about domani,

Let's forget about domani,
Let's forget about domani,
For domani never comes! )

Let's for get about domani,
Let's for get about domani,
Let's for get about domani,
For domani never comes!

Tomorrow,
Forget tomorrow,
Let's live for now, and anyhow,
Who needs tomorrow?

The moonlight,
Let's share the moonlight,
Perhaps together,
We will never be again!

Oh what a moon, ( che luna )
Oh what a sea, ( che mare )
With such a moon and such a sea
And you with me . . .

I get so dizzy when you're standing near,
It's not the music that you hear,
My heart keeps beating like a jungle drum . . .

Let's take the minutes as they speed away,
And hope it's true what people say,
When you're in love, tomorrow never comes!

( s? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani
Perch?forse non verr?)

S? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani
Perch?forse non verr?
( domani, forget domani
Con questa luna e questo mare
E tu con me )

Let's take the minutes as they speed away,
And hope it's true what people say,
When you're in love, tomorrow never comes!

Let's for get about domani,
Let's for get about domani,
Let's for get about domani,
For domani never comes!

S? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani,
S? dimentichiamo domani
Perch?forse non verr?
Domani never comes . . .
Tomorrow never comes!


6.Anema E Core

I've got a yearning to caress you,
One thought keeps burning in my soul,
A hungry yearning to possess you,
It's far beyond control!

I want your love for now, forever,
I want you heart and soul!

My life, i'd give to you,
Anema e core . . .
I only live for you,
Anema e core . . .

I have but one desire,
And it's to love you,
With all my heart, with all my soul,
My whole life through!

From stars i'll make your crown,
And kneel before you,
I pray you'll take my hand,
For i adore you!

Open up the doors leading to heaven,
A heaven mine and yours,
Anema e core . . .

< italian lyrics >


7.Un Giorno Dopo L'altro

( one day is like another )

One day is like another,
The sun climbs in the sky,
The twilight brings the echo,
Of your last goodbye!

One day is like another,
The waves cry on the shore,
This empty world is whirling,
Like the day before!

The stars above are quiet eyes,
They only watch to see if we're together,
They never seem to realize,
You didn't mean your love would last forever!

The sun will rise tomorrow,
And circle in the blue,
One day is like another,
Lonely without you!

Un giorno dopo l'altro
La vita se ne va.
Doani sar?un giorno uguale a ieri.

Un giorno dopo l'altro,
One day is like another . . .


8.Santa Lucia

Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento
Placida ?l'onda
Prospero il vento

Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento
Placida ?l'onda
Prospero il vento

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie
Santa lucia, santa lucia

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie
Santa lucia, santa lucia

Soft winds caress the sea,
Breezes so tender,
Make every dancing wave,
Gladly surrender!

Days here are heavenly,
Nights are pure ecstasy,
Santa lucia, santa lucia!

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie
Santa lucia, santa lucia


9.é Lei(To You)

é lei la donna mia, ?lei
Che non potr?lasciare mai
Perch?ora lo so
Per l'eternit?il nostro amore durer?

é lei la donna mia, ?lei
E a tutto il mondo grider?Che tutta la mia vita, la mia
felicit??lei, ?lei, ?lei . . .

To you, i give my heart completely,
To you, my love, forevermore,
All that i possess,
My life and nothin' less,
I offer humbly at your door!

To me, you bring a glimpse of heaven,
The world i really never knew,
And in return i'll give,
As long as i may live,
Devotion, only to you!


10.Toselli's Serenade

( dreams and memories )
Dreams and memories,
Are all that you've left me,
Only lonely thoughts,
About the one i worship and adore!

Dreams and memories,
Are what i must live with,
Sad remembering,
Of golden moments that exist no more!

Lovin' arms to hold me tight,
And your lips to kiss goodnight,
A love that seemed ' oh so right!'
And yet, somehow, went wrong!

Dreams and memories,
The moonlight on your hair,
Songs that we sang,
That feeling we shared whenever a church bell rang!

Oh, the memories and dreams of you!

I can't live without you . . .
I'll keep on praying you come back to me,
To me . . . to me!


11.O Marenariello

Vicino al mare facciamo l'amore,
A cuore a cuore
Ci divertiamo.
é marinara questa bellezza
E su questa bellezza io voglio morire.


12.Arrivederci Roma(Goodbye To Rome)

Arrivederci roma,
Goodbye, goodbye to rome . . .

City of a million moonlit places,
City of a million warm embraces,
Where i found the one of all the faces,
Far from home!

Arrivederci roma,
It's time for us to part,

Save the wedding bells for my returning,
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning,
Please be sure the flame of love keeps burning,
In her heart!

City of a million moonlit places,
City of a million warm embraces,
Where i found the one of all the faces,
Far from home!

Arrivederci roma,
It's time for us to part,

Save the wedding bells for my returning,
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning,
Please be sure the flame of love keeps burning,
In her heart!

Arrivederci roma,
Roma, roma, roma . . .
