The Summer Knows (From "Summer Of '42") - Henry Mancini

The summer smiles, the summer knows And unashamed, she sheds her clothes The summer smoothes the restless sky And lovingly she warms the sand on which we lie The summer knows, the summer's wise She sees the doubts within your eyes And so she takes her summertime Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger Twists the world around her summer finger Lets you see the wonder of it all And if you learned your lesson well There's little more for her to tell One last caress, it's time to dress for fall

This empty heart runs past you time and again I'm sorry that I can't be any help to you I wish I could, but more I wish that you understood That even now, your pride won't let me share your pain I'll live on and leave all of this fear far behind me I'll get back on the track, All without looking back on this lonely rail You know that I would follow you no matter what we go through Bring all the darkness the world can offer Because you'll shine no matter if the future is bleak We'll aim out just beyond the boundary And even if it scares me Nothing can shatter my soul Because your way is my way Forever on this railway As if we were God blessed This tenderness, a feeling I cannot express Melting my walls, it finds a home inside my heart We don't need fate, no rhyme or reason to correlate Only the now that overflows, lovin' you Let's escape and chase after the dreams we both create And maybe then we'll mend So then you can transcend beyond your lonely heart Don't you dare lie, it isn't like you Please, tell me it's not true Look in my eyes, we can work this out We'll put it in the past, so let's begin the future today Even if everything around us seems as if it's hopeless I am prepared to take on the world It's all for my wish, I ask if it will come true But that only God knows ... I've found where I belong I once was all alone, but now you're standing here The world around could disappear The beauty of our dream, we'll capture it on canvas, You and I can trace over our permanent scars You know that- Please know that I would follow you no matter what we're go through Bring all the darkness this world can offer Because you'll shine no matter if the future is bleak We'll aim out just beyond the boundary And even if it scares me Nothing can shatter my soul Because your way is my way Forever on this railway As if we were God blessed

Sotto un manto di stelle Roma bella mi appare Solitario il mio cuore Disilluso d'amore Vuol nell'ombra cantar Una muta fontana E un balcone lassù O chitarra romana Accompagnami tu Suona, suona mia chitarra Lascia piangere il mio cuore Senza casa e senza amore Mi rimani solo tu Se la voce è un po' velata Accompagnami in sordina La mia bella fornarina Al balcone non c'è più Lungotevere dorme Mentre il fiume cammina Lo so seguo perché Mi trascina con sé E travolge il mio cuore Vedo un'ombra lontana E una stella lassù O chitarra romana Accompagnami tu Se la voce è un po' velata Accompagnami in sordina La mia bella fornarina Al balcone non c'è più O chitarra romana Accompagnami tu
