Souvenir D'Italie

Carl Sigman - Lelio Luttazzi - Giulio Scarnicci - Renzo Tarabusi

© Music Sales, ASCAP

The moonlight reflected the Mediterranean splendor
The silvery sand was a magical carpet of white
We shared with each other our kisses and willing surrender
And promised each other that we would remember that night

Then we had to part broken hearted
You gave me a shell as we parted
You told me to listen
For it had a message for me

Pretty shell that we found by the sea
Souvenir d'italie

Pretty shell that I took home with me
Souvenir d'Italie

Even though we are so far apart
Still the shell speaks to me
And a voice that is yours
Calls me back to your shores
Voice of love
Souvenir d'Italie

Ma perche non mi fai piu dormire
Solo tu me lo puoi dire
Te ne sei andata cosi
E mi lasci partire
Souvenir souvenir d'Italie

Oh Marie

Louis Prima - Eduardo DeCapua

© Ebsen Music, ASCAP

Devo guardare fuori dalla finestra
Fammi affacciare Maria
Che stai in mezzo alla strada
Ed é tutto da vedere
Non trovo neanche uñ ora di pace
Di notte faccio giorno
E passo tutto il giorno sperando di parlarti

Hei Maria Hei Maria
Quanto sonno ho perso per té
Fammi dormire
Tutta la notte abbracciato con té

Hei Maria (Hei Maria) Hei Maria (Hei Maria)
Quanto sonno ho perso per té
Fammi dormire
Hei Maria Hei Maria

(Hei Maria) Hei Maria (Hei Maria) Hei Maria
(Quanto sonno ho perso per té)
Fammi dormire
Tutta la notte abbracciato con té

Hei Maria Hei Maria
Quanto sonno ho perso per té
Fammi dormire
Hei Maria (Hei Maria) Hei Maria
(Hei Maria)

Cominciamo Ad Amarci

Gino Mescoli - Vito Pallavicini

© Gil Music, BMI

Cominciamo ad amarci questa sera
Cominciamo con un bacio piano piano
Poi diremo le cose di sempre
ma saranno come nuove per noi

Cominciamo ad amarci per la vita
Cominciamo a tenerci per la mano
Ed andremo padroni delmondo
Innammorati innammorati cosí

Cominciamo ad amarci per la vita
Cominciamo a tenerci per la mano
Ed andremo padroni delmondo
Innammorati innammorati cosí
Cosí cosí

Love Theme From La Strada (Traveling Down A Lonely Road)

Giulio Casale

© Fonit Cetra Music, ASCAP

Why am I alone why am I alone
Traveling down a lonely road

Darling can't you see
I don't wanna be
Traveling down a lonely road

If you would open up your heart
And let my love come shining through
You'd know how much
I wanna walk the road with you

Won't you understand
Won't you take my hand
It's been such a lonely road
[ Italian ]
If you would open up your heart
And let my love come shining through
You'd know how much
I wanna walk the road with you

Won't you understand
Won't you take my hand
It's been such a lonely road
Such a lonely road

Forget Domani

Norman Newell - Riziero Ortolani

© E.B. Marks Music, BMI

(Let's forget about domani
Let's forget about domani
Let's forget about domani
For domani never comes)

Let's for get about domani
Let's for get about domani
Let's for get about domani
For domani never comes

Tomorrow
Forget tomorrow
Let's live for now and anyhow
Who needs tomorrow

The moonlight
Let's share the moonlight
Perhaps together
We will never be again

Oh what a moon (che luna)
Oh what a sea (che mare)
With such a moon and such a sea
And you with me

I get so dizzy when you're standing near
It's not the music that you hear
My heart keeps beating like a jungle drum

Let's take the minutes as they speed away
And hope it's true what people say
When you're in love tomorrow never comes

(Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
perché forse non verrá)

Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
Perché forse non verrá

(Domani forget domani
Con questa luna e questo mare e tu con me)

Let's take the minutes as they speed away
And hope it's true what people say
When you're in love tomorrow never comes

Let's for get about domani
Let's for get about domani
Let's for get about domani
For domani never comes

Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
Sú dimentichiamo domani
perché forse non verrá

Domani never comes
Tomorrow never comes

Anema E Core

Mann Curtis - Harry Akst - Tito Manlio

© Leeds Music, ASCAP

I've got a yearning to caress you
One thought keeps burning in my soul
A hungry yearning to possess you
It's far beyond control

I want your love for now forever
I want you heart and soul

My life I'd give to you
Anema e core
I only live for you
Anema e core

I have but one desire
And it's to love you
With all my heart with all my soul
My whole life through

From stars I'll make your crown
And kneel before you
I pray you'll take my hand
For I adore you

Open up the doors leading to heaven
A heaven mine and yours
Anema e core
[ Italian ]

Un Giorno Dopo L'altro (One Day After Another)

Craig Carothers

© Bonny Black Music, BMI

(One day is like another)

One day is like another
The sun climbs in the sky
The twilight brings the echo
Of your last goodbye

One day is like another
The waves cry on the shore
This empty world is whirling
Like the day before

The stars above are quiet eyes
They only watch to see if we're together

They never seem to realize
You didn't mean your love would last forever

The sun will rise tomorrow
And circle in the blue
One day is like another
Lonely without you

Un giorno dopo l'altro
La vita se ne va
Doani sará un giorno uguale a ieri

Un giorno dopo l'altro
One day is like another

Santa Lucia

Carmen Dragon - Robert Lee - Jerome Lawrence

© Harriett Music, ASCAP

Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento
Placida é l'onda
Prospero il vento

Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento
Placida é l'onda
Prospero il vento

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie
Santa lucia santa lucia

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie

Santa lucia santa lucia

Soft winds caress the sea
Breezes so tender
Make every dancing wave
Gladly surrender!

Days here are heavenly
Nights are pure ecstasy
Santa lucia santa lucia

Venite all'argine
Barchette mie
Santa lucia santa lucia

E Lei (And You)

Charles Souza

© Malama Music, BMI

É lei la donna mia é lei
che non potró lasciare mai
perché ora lo so
per l'eternitá il nostro amore durerá

É lei la donna mia é lei
e a tutto il mondo grideró
che tutta la mia vita la mia felicitá
é lei é lei é lei

To you I give my heart completely
To you my love forevermore

All that I possess
My life and nothin' less
I offer humbly at your door

To me you bring a glimpse of heaven
The world I really never knew
And in return I'll give
As long as I may live
Devotion only to you

Toselli's Serenade (Dreams And Memories)

Rosalie Fiocco

© Molique Music, BMI

Dreams and memories
Are all that you've left me
Only lonely thoughts
About the one I worship and adore

Dreams and memories
Are what I must live with
Sad remembering
Of golden moments that exist no more

Lovin' arms to hold me tight
And your lips to kiss goodnight
A love that seemed Oh so right
And yet somehow went wrong

Dreams and memories
The moonlight on your hair
Songs that we sang
That feeling we shared whenever a church bell rang

Oh the memories and dreams of you

I can't live without you
I'll keep on praying you come back to me
To me to me

O Marenariello

Rosalie Fiocco

© Molique Music, BMI

Vicino al mare facciamo l'amore
a cuore a cuore
ci divertiamo
É marinara questa bellezza
e su questa bellezza io voglio morire

Arrivederci Roma

Carl Sigman - Renato Rascel - Pietro Garinei - Sandro Giovannini

© Connelly Music, ASCAP

Arrivederci roma
Goodbye goodbye to roma

City of a million moonlit places
City of a million warm embraces
Where I found the one of all the faces
Far from home

Arrivederci roma
It's time for us to part

Save the wedding bells for my returning
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning
Please be sure the flame of love keeps burning
In her heart

City of a million moonlit places
City of a million warm embraces
Where I found the one of all the faces
Far from home

Arrivederci roma
It's time for us to part

Save the wedding bells for my returning
Keep my lover's arms outstretched and yearning
Please be sure the flame of love keeps burning
In her heart

Arrivederci roma
Roma roma roma
