"O Sole Mio" by MEN WITHOUT HATS
================================
So high
give me your love
imagination
run wild
tell me you're mine
i can never remember your name
so high
give me your heart
hey guardian angels
more light,
i'm falling in love
and i want to remember my way
Mother, mother
can't you see
everyone's in love with me
O sole mio
so far
given the light
of distant ages
sometimes i can never be sure
i can only remember today
so now
given enough
i'll heed the sages
how far is the mountain above
well it wasn't a potion away
Mother, mother
can't you see
everyone's in love with me
(but only i know)
all the people in the square
try to act like nothing's there
O sole mio
(i was a rainbow)
so now
give me your love
in celebration
of life
in love
of fascination
so now give me your heart
my guardian angel knows
(i was a rainbow)
Mother, mother
can't you see
something's wrong inside me
everytime i try to say the words
they don't come out right
Mother, mother
if you please
life has got me on my knees
half expecting someone's love
[to come]
and hit me blind side
Mother, mother
if you care
tell me i am unaware
of what i'm doing to your beauty
and your holy love-life
Mother, mother
if you please
something's wrong inside of me
everytime i try to say the words
they don't come out right
Me
i was a rainbow
O sole mio
