LYRICS

Con lui volando lontano dalla terra
Dimenticando le tristezze della sera
In paradiso oltre le nuvole
Pazza d’amore come le lucciole

Quanto tempo puo durare?
Quante notti da sognare?
Quante ore, quanti giorni
E carezze infinite?

Quando ami
Da morire
Chuidi gli occhi e non pensare
Il tempo passa, l’amore scompare
E la danza finira!

Una notte a Napoli
Con la luna e il mare
Ho incontrato un angelo
Che non poteva piu volar

Una notte a Napoli
Delle stelle si scordo
E anche senza ali
In cielo mi porto

Ma quando il cuore mi ha spezzato
Ed in cielo mi ha abbandonato
Adesso sulla terra son tornata
Mai più di amare mi sono rassegnata

Quanto tempo può durare?
Quante notti da sognare?
Quante ore, quanti giorni
E carezze infinite?

Quando ami da morire
Chiudi gli occhi e non pensare
Il tempo passa, l'amore scompare
E la danza finirà!

Una notte a Napoli
Con la luna e il mare
Ho incontrato un angelo
Che non poteva piu volar

Una notte a Napoli
Delle stelle si scordo
E anche senza ali
In cielo mi porto

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Flying with him far above the earth
Forgetting the sadness of the evening
In heaven, beyond the clouds
Crazy from love like fireflies

How long can this last?
How many nights to dream?
How many hours, how many days?
And infinite caresses?

When you love so much
You want to die
Close your eyes and don't think
Time passes, love is fleeting
And the dance will end

One night in Naples
With the moon and the sea
I met an angel
Who could no longer fly

One night in Naples
We forgot about the stars
And even without wings
He took me to the sky

Sadly everything
Must come to an end
But when he broke my heart
And abandoned me in the sky

I fell back to earth
And promised
Never to love again
But look up!
