Caruso
Il Divo
Caruso
Here where the sea shines,
And the wind blows strong
On the old terrace
In front of the Gulf of Sorrento
A man embraces a girl
After she had cried
Then he clears his voice,
And starts singing again
Do I love you very much?
But so much, you know?
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood in the veins, you know?
He saw the lights in the middle of the sea,
He thought about the nights in America
But they were just the lamps
And the white wake of a propeller
He felt the pain in the music,
And he got up from the piano
But when he saw
The moon coming out of a cloud,
Death seemed sweeter to him
He looked into the girl's eyes,
Those eyes as green as the sea
Then suddenly a tear came out
And he thought he was drowning
Do I love you very much?
But so much, you know?
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood in the veins, you know?
Power of the lyrics,
Where every drama is a fake
That with a bit of makeup and mimicry
You can become someone else
But two eyes that look at you,
So close and real
Make you forget the words,...
Confuse the thoughts
So everything becomes small,
Even the nights in America
You turn around and see your life,
Behind the wake of a propeller
But yes, life ends,
And I don't think about it so much
Actually, he already felt happy,
And started his song again
Do I love you very much?
But so much, you know?
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood in the veins, you know?
