ItalianoDove sono biscottini e caramelle,

l'olio fresco dal mulino, il
bardolino,
pane tondo cotto al forno di mattonelle,

mi ricordo, di tutto mi ricordo.
Dove sono ceci fave per le minestre,

l’uovo col marsala, le frittelle,

il sapor' delle zucchine del giardino,

se n’è andato tutto via con il vento.

Passa un giorno di più,

e tutto sembra come fosse ieri,

passa la vita veloce,

e niente resta più come prima.

I boschetti con i funghi son perduti,

e la briscola in famiglia, non si fa più,

il suon dell'organetto dello zio,

mi ricordo, di tutto mi ricordo.

La bottega della Lina, il cenciaiolo,

limoncello e cassate a due soldi,

e le donne al lavatorio, la befana,

se n’è andato tutto via con il vento.

Biciclette e bagni al mare in agosto,
i fumetti con Minnie, e topolino,

la pesca della trota con il nonno,

mi ricordo, di tutto mi ricordo.

E fuggita la ragazza dagli occhi chiari,

la quercia del cortile, l'inchiostro blu,

e il cinema all' aperto con Maria,
se n’è andato tutto via con il vento.

Français

Où sont les gâteaux et le caramel
L’huile nouvelle du moulin,

Le pain rond cuit au four de brique
Je me souviens, je me souviens de tout

Où sont les pois chiches et les fèves pour les minestrones
L’œuf au Marsala, les beignets
L’odeur des courgettes dans le jardin
Tout a disparu avec le vent

Un jour de plus est passé
Et tout semble comme si c’était hier
La vie passe si vite
Et plus rien n’est plus comme autrefois

Les bois aux champignons sont perdus
On ne joue plus à la briscola en famille,
Le son de l’accordéon de l’oncle,
Je me souviens, je me souviens de tout

La boutique de Lina, le chiffonnier
Limoncello et cassate à deux sous
Et les femmes au lavoir, la befana
Tout a disparu avec le vent

La bicyclette et les bains de mer en août
Les bandes dessinées avec Minnie et Mickey
La pêche à la truite avec le grand-père
Je me souviens, je me souviens de tout

La jeune fille aux yeux clairs a disparu
Le chêne de la cour, l’encre bleue
Et le cinéma en plein air avec Maria
Tout a disparu avec le vent

English

Where are the cakes and the caramels
The oil fresh from the mill
The round bread baked in the brick oven
I remember, I remember everything

Where are the chick peas

End the broad beans from the minestrone
Eggs in Marsala, the doughnuts
The smell of zucchinis in the garden
Everything has gone with the wind

Another day has gone by
And all is as if it was yesterday
Life goes by so fast
And nothing is like it used to be

The mushroom woods have gone
We no longer play briscola as a family,
The sound of my uncle’s arccordion,
I remember, I remember everything

Lina’s little shop, the rag and bone man
Limoncello and cassate a penny a piece
And women in the wash house, la befana
Everything has gone with the wind

The bicycle and swimming in the August sea
The cartoons with Minnie and mickey
Trout fishing with granddad

The young bright-eyed girl has disappeared
The oak-tree in the garden, the blue ink
And the open-air cinema with Maria
Everything has gone with the wind

RitornelloChe bella storia,
storia d'amore,
amore mio,
mi porti sù, sù, sù

lassù nel cielo,
cielo d'estate solo per noi.
(l'estat' è solo per noi)
Strofa
:Noi siam' felici
il giorno la notte
con cento mila baci
l'amore è sempre piu dolce
mi porta sempre più in alto,
sempre più forte
Français :

RefrainQuelle belle histoire,
Histoire d'amour,
Mon amour,
tu m'emportes là-haut,
la-haut dans le ciel,
le ciel d'été, rien que pour nous
(l'été n'est rien que pour nous.)
Couplet:Nous sommes heureux
le jour et la nuit
avec cent mille baisers
l'amour est toujours plus doux
il m'emporte toujours plus haut
Et toujours plus fort.

ChorusWhat a lovely story
A love story
My love
You take me up there
Up there in the sky
The summer sky
Just for us
(the summer just for us)

VerseWe are happy
Day and night
With a hundred thousand kisses
Love is always sweeter
It takes me up there
And always more intense

ItalianoDivent' un uomo fatto,
Lei torna ragazza,
ma quanto sto bene,
quando quando
ma quanto sto bene,
quà , tra le braccia di tua madre!

Ha la pudore d'una bimba,
E la dolcezza d'una mamma,
l'appettito di una leonessa,
e l'esperienza d'una regina, ah...

Le pesche non mi piacciono se sono verdi,
Le pere, non mi piacciono se sono dure,
le donne sono com' i frutti,
migliore se sono mature.
Lei sa placar' il mio ardore
Posso gli aprir' il mio cuore,
Dice che io la faccio ridere
ma non mi parla di matrimonio!

Français

Je deviens un homme mûr
Elle redevient jeune fille
Mais qu’est-ce que je me sens bien

Quand, quand
Qu'est-ce que je suis bien
Là, dans les bras de ta mère

Elle a la pudeur d'une enfant
Et la douceur d'une mère
L'appétit d'une lionne
Et l'expérience d'une reine, ah...

Les pêches ne me plaisent pas si elles sont vertes
Les poires ne me plaisent pas si elles sont dures
Les femmes sont comme les fruits
Meilleures quand elles sont mûres

Elle sait calmer mon ardeur
Je peux lui ouvrir mon cœur
Elle dit que je la fais rire
Mais ne parle pas de mariage.

English

I am becoming a mature man
She is becoming a young girl
How good I feel
When when
How good I feel
Here in your mother’s arms

She has a child’s modesty
And a sweetness of a mother
The appetite of a lioness
And the experience of a queen, ah…

I don’t like peaches when they’re green
I don’t like pears when they’re hard
Women are like fruit
Better when they are ripe

She knows how to cool my ardour
I can open my heart to her
She says that I make her laugh
But don’t talk to me about marriage

Italiano
Il primo amore,

Sarà per sempre il più bello

Il primo amore sarà per sempre per il più forte

All' orizzonte quando il cielo s’oscura,

Non ce ne accorgiamo

Il primo amore si vive solo una volta

Il primo sguardo

Rimane dentro i miei sogni

Il primo sguardo rimane

Dentro il mio cuore

Nei nostri occhi tante, tante promesse

Che un battito di ciglia

Può dare abbastanza amore per l'eternità

Il primo bacio

Sarà per sempre il più dolce

Il primo bacio

Sarà per sempre il più vero

Quando dobbiamo lasciarci le mani,

Quando dobbiamo dirci ciao

Allora « A domani » suona come « Addio »

Il Primo amore si vive

Mmh.... (improvvisazione)
Solo una volta

Français

Le premier amour
Sera pour toujours le plus beau
Le premier amour sera pour toujours le plus fort
A l’horizon quand le ciel s’obscurcit,
On ne s’en aperçoit pas
Mais le premier amour ne se vit qu’une seule fois.

Le premier regard
Reste dans mes rêves
Le premier regard reste
Dans mon coeur
Dans nos yeux tant, tant de promesses
Qu’un seul battement de cil
Peut donner assez d’amour pour l’éternité.

Le premier baiser
Sera pour toujours le plus doux
Le premier baiser
Sera pour toujours le plus sincère
Quand nos mains se séparent
Quand nous devons nous dire au revoir
Alors «
à demain
» sonne comme «
adieu
».

English

The first love
Will always be the finest
The first love
Will always be the deepest
On the horizon as the sky is fading
We don’t realize it
But the first love only lives once.

The first look
Stays in my dreams
The first look

Stays in my heart
In our eyes, so many, so many promesses
That one blink of an eye
Can give enough love for eternity.

The first kiss
Will always be the sweetest
The first kiss
Will always be the more sincere
When our hands part
When we must say goodbyes
Then “goodbye” sounds “adieu”.

FOOL # 1

CHORUS
Am I fool number 1
Or am I fool number 2
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,
Am I your number 1 fool?

VERSE
I spent so much time gettin’ hurt in this race
I don’t want to end up in second place

CHORUS
Am I fool number one
Or am I fool number two
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,
Am I your number one fool?

Instrumental break

VERSE
Set ‘em up Joe, and we’ll knock ‘em on down
To the potential number one fool in town

CHORUS
Am I fool number one
Or am I fool number two
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,

If you’re the queen of heartaches, Am I the number one fool?

I DON'T MATTER ANYWAY
VERSE
There’s a rumor goin’ round this little town
Say you’re gonna throw my love away
Well tell me where do you get off
I’m the one having second thoughts
And I don’t think we can last another day

CHORUS
So We can talk about it
We can sleep on it
But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face
Cause I’m beginnin’ to see

What you don’t mean to me
And it really doesn’t matter anyway

VERSE
You’ve got a new boyfriend, and I’m real free
Let’s just call a spade a spade
I’m eatin’ real well, and takin’ care of myself
It’s something I gave up on along the way

CHORUS
So we can talk about it
We can sleep on it
But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face
Cause I’m beginnin’ to see

What you don’t mean to me
And it really doesn’t matter anyway

REPEAT CHORUS
We can talk about it
We can sleep on it
But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face
Cause I’m beginnin’ to see

What you don’t mean to me

And it really doesn’t matter anyway

No it really doesn’t matter anyway

GOODTIME HONKY TONK
VERSE
Just a little past the county line
Where the kudzu’s growin’ up the cross road sign

Sun’s sinkin’ thru the pine
You’ll find the goodtime honky tonk

VERSE
Just one happy family
Blowin’ off steam at the end of the week
Yes sir, no ma’am, thank you, please
At the goodtime honky tonk

CHORUS
Goodtime Honky Tonk
Grab yourself a cold one
Lose your troubles
An’ have some fun
At the goodtime Honky Tonk
Goodtime Honky Tonk
Grab yourself a partner
Try to hang on
To an old George Strait song
At the goodtime Honky Tonk

VERSE
Jukebox sittin’ on the old front porch
Punch those numbers and hit the floor
We all know what we’re here for

At the goodtime Honky Tonk

VERSE
None of that new country breed
Just Hank and Lefty and some Brenda Lee
Listen to Willie puff some weed
At the goodtime Honky Tonk

CHORUS
Goodtime Honky Tonk
Grab yourself a cold one

At the goodtime Honky Tonk
At the goodtime Honky Tonk
