Lascia ch'io pianga
Mia cruda sorte,
E che sospiri
La libertà.E che sospiri
E che sospiri
La libertà.Lascia ch'io pianga
Mia cruda sorte,
E che sospiri
La libertà.Il duolo infranga
Queste ritorte,
De' miei martiri
Sol per pietà.De' miei martiri
Sol per pietà.Lascia ch'io pianga
Mia cruda sorte,
E che sospiri
La libertà.E che sospiri
E che sospiri
La libertà.Lascia ch'io pianga
Mia cruda sorte,
E che sospiri
La libertà.

If you want this side of me
If you hope there’s more to see
You can’t wait, this time tomorrow
You’ll be still holding on, I guarantee.

Come taste the water, taste the day
I’m an ocean, you’re the bay.
It’s been said that I’m an outlaw
With too much time to steal away.

You know, you know that I could never change
They say, you say, there’s need to disarrange.
And all I hear are lies that re-appear
And despite all this you still want this side of me.

God give me peace,
God give me rest
I need time to re-assess.
You see I’m tired, but that’s life though
I still hold my convictions to the test.

You know…
