Do you have this one, msolga?
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 assaie
ma tanto tanto bene sai
é una catena ormai
che scioglie il sangue dint'e vene sai.
2. Vide le luci in mezzo al mare
pensò alle notti là in America
ma erano solo le lampare
e la bianca scia di un elica
sentì il dolore della musica
si alzò dal pianoforte
ma quando vide la luna uscire da una nuvola
gli sembrò più dolce anche la morte
guardò negli occhi la ragazza
quegli occhi verdi come il mare
poi all'improvviso una lacrima
e lui credette di affogare.
Te voglio bene assaie
3. Potenza della lirica
dove ogni dramma é un falso
che con un pò di trucco e con la mimica
puoi diventare un altro
ma due occhi che ti guardano
così vicini e veri
ti fan scordare le parole,
confondono i pensieri
così diventa tutto piccolo
anche le notti là in America.
Ti volti e vedi la tua vita
come la scia di un'elica
ma sì è la vita che finisce
ma lui non ci pensò poi tanto
anzi si sentiva già felice
e ricominciò il suo canto.
Te voglio bene assaie
I use tu hum it...
This one, Francis?
I don't think so. A pity!:
Here, where the sea shines
And the wind howls
On the old terrace
Beside the gulf of Sorrento
A man embraces a girl
After the tears
Then clears his throat
And continues the song:
I love you very much
Very, very much you know
It is a chain by now
That heats the blood inside the veins
You know
He saw the lights out on the sea
Thought of the nights there in America
But they were only the fisherman's lamps
And the white wash astern
He felt the pain in the music
And stood up from the piano
But when he saw the moon
Emerging from a cloud
Death also seemed sweeter to him
He looked the girl in the eyes
Those eyes as green as the sea
Then suddenly a tear fell
And he believed he was drowning
I love you very much
Very, very much, you know
It is a chain by now
That heats the blood inside the veins
You know
The power of opera
Where every drama is a hoax
With a little make-up and with mine
You can become someone else
But two eyes that look at you
So close and real
Make you forget the words
Confuse your thoughts
So everything becomes small
Also the nights there in America
You turn and see your life
Through the white wash astern
But, yes, it is life that ends
And he did not think much about it
On the contrary, he already felt happy
And continued his song
I love you very much
Very, very much, you know
It is a chain by now
That heats the blood inside the veins
You know
~
Obviously, msolga, it's that one!
A shame I can't hear it, though ...

Yup, that's the one.
I love "Cool Water." I've been listening to much classic country lately.
