Quando C'era Il Mare
Sergio Endrigo
When There Was the Sea
I’ll take you to the golden beaches
I’ll tell you about when there was the sea
You’ll laugh, my friend
And you’ll still play with me
I’ll put flowers in your hair
I’ll wear you out with wine and caresses
You’ll sleep, my pain
And finally, I’ll love you
I’ll buy you colorful trinkets
You’ll look at me and find only me
My love, I’ll kill you
But slowly, slowly you won’t even notice
I, I’ll make up
The excuse to stay here forever
I’ll keep you, locked inside me
Free and happy, but locked inside me
I’ll take you to the golden beaches
I’ll tell you about when there was the sea
You’ll laugh, my friend
And again and again, you’ll play with me
I, I’ll make up
The excuse to stay here forever
I’ll keep you locked inside me
Free and happy, but locked inside me
You’ll laugh, my friend, and again and again, you’ll play with me
