Here where the sea sparkles and where the wind blows strong
On an old terrace facing the gulf of Sorriento
A man hugs a girl after she has been crying
Then he clears his throat and begins singing again
I love you very much
But you know very, very well
It's a chain now
That melts the blood in your veins you know
I saw the lights in the middle of the sea I think of the nights there in America
But they were only the lights and the white trail of a propeller
Feel the pain in the music as you rise from the piano
But when he saw the moon coming out of a cloud
Even death seems sweeter to him
I look into the girl's eyes, those green eyes like the sea
Then suddenly a tear came out and he thought he was drowning
I love you very much
But you know very, very well
It's a chain now
That melts the blood in your veins you know
The power of opera where every drama is a fake
That with a little makeup and mimicry you can become someone else
So I become all small even at nights there in America
You turn around and see your life like the wake of a propeller
I love you very much
But you know very, very well
It's a chain now
That melts the blood in your veins you know
I love you very much
But you know very, very well
It's a chain now
That melts the blood in your veins you know
Dint'e veins you know
