Caruso
Lucio Dalla
Caruso
Here where the sea shines
And the wind blows strong
On an 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
I love you very much
But so much, you know
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood inside the veins, you know
He saw the lights out on the sea
He thought about the nights there in America
But they were only the lamps
And the white wake of a propeller
He felt the pain in the music
He rose from the Piano
But when he saw the moon coming out from a cloud
Even 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
I love you very much
But so much, you know
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood inside 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 became small
Even the nights there in America
You turn around and see your life
Like the wake of a propeller
But yes, it's life that ends
Words, I don't think about them much
Actually, he felt happy
And started his song again
I love you very much
But so much, you know
It's a chain by now
That melts the blood inside the veins, you know
