Caruso [English translation]

Here, where the sea shines and where the wind howls,

on the old terrace infront of the Gulf of Sorrento,

a man embraces a girl after she has cried

then he clears his voice and continues the song:

I love you very much,

very, very much, you know

it is a chain by now

that melts the blood inside the veins, you know

He saw the lights in the middle of the sea, thought of the nights there in America,

but they were only the fishermens lamps and the white wake of a propeller (stern)

He felt the pain in the music and got up from the piano,

but when he saw the moon emerging from a cloud

also the death seemed sweeter to him.

He looked in girls eyes, those eyes as green as the sea,

then suddenly a tear fell and he believed he was drowning.

I love you very much,

very, very much, you know,

it is a chain by now

that melts the blood inside the vein you know

The power of lyric, where every drama is fake

with a little make-up and with mime you can become someone else.

But two eyes that look at you so close and real

makes you to forget the words and confuse the thoughts

So everything became small, even the nights in America

You turn and you see your life like a wake of a propeller (stern)

Yeah, it's life that ends, but he didn't think too much about it

on the opposite, he felt already happy and began again to sing

I love you very much

very very much, you know

it's become a chain

that melts the blood inside the veins, you know
