Chitarra Romana
Claudio Villa
Roman Guitar
Under a blanket of stars
Beautiful Rome appears to me
Lonely my heart disillusioned by love
Wants to sing in the shadows
A silent fountain
And a balcony up there
Oh Roman guitar
Accompany me
Play, play my guitar
Let my heart cry
Without a home and without love
You are all I have left
If the voice is a bit veiled
Accompany me quietly
My beautiful baker girl
Is no longer at the balcony
The Lungotevere sleeps
While the river walks
I follow it because it drags me along
And overwhelms my heart
I see a distant shadow
And a star up there
Oh Roman guitar
Accompany me
If the voice is a bit veiled
Accompany me quietly
My beautiful baker girl
Is no longer at the balcony
Oh Roman guitar
Accompany me
