Senza Ripienti (No Regrets)
Art & Lyrics
Alright, I’ll admit it, I am a bit of a sap. Italy and romance have been connected for centuries. Witness: all the great works of art, the wonderful food, and the delicious wines that have come out of Italy. What about the old movies with the great Italian lovers? I do not speak Italian, but I gave it a shot. For those of Italian descent, I apologize for turning your exquisite language into sausage. I wanted to try to write a beautiful Italian love song, and I guess this is what they might call "collateral damage". Please listen with an open mind, an open heart, and maybe a slightly bent ear.
Senza Ripienti
words & music JRRothrock 6/3/2008
I touch the stars… when we’re together
Tocco le stelle quando siamo insieme
My heart takes flight… when you are near
Il mio cuore prende il volo quando siete vicino
I do believe… we’ll last forever
Credo che duriamo per sempre
and when I hold you… I have no fear
e quando lo tengo… Non ho timore
… look into my eyes…
…esamini i miei occhi
… what do you see?
… che cosa vedete?
… an endless love…for you…
…un amore infinito…per lei…
… eternally!
…aahhhh…eterno!
But if “tomorrow”… is not in the stars…
ma se il domani non è nelle stelle
and I can hold you… for but one night…
e posso tenere voi… per ma una notte…
My dream has wings … I can die happy…
Il mio sogno ha ali … posso morire felice
..the flower has bloomed… No regrets…
…il fiore ha fiorito… nessun rammarico
… senza ripienti…
… senza ripienti…
