Off the plane, o sole
Home again, that’s amore
The happy feeling
How my heart is reeling
With this sense of bliss
I always miss
When I’m gone too long
Walking on a cloud
I wanna cry out loud
Here is where I belong
I’m back in Rome
My one and only Rome
Eternal city
Still the same, so pretty
I’m back in Rome
My one and only Rome
Immortal lady
Old mamma, so sassy
The heat in the air
And daylight so fair
Trastevere at spring time in the sun
I walk across the river to the Pantheon
Churches, fountains, statues all around
The Colosseum glowing when the day is done
Silhouettes of the cypresses
Enchanting colours on the hills
The beauty of it all
It’s supernatural
I’m back in Rome
And I took the only road that leads to it
The road of a heart
That never left this timeless town
The beat in the air
At midnight on a square
Evening in the streets, I’m having fun
Early next morning, I’m on the run
A train from Ostiense to Ostia beach
The Appia Antica within my reach
Ruins in the countryside
Seagulls, starlings on the glide
The magic of it all
Once more I hear the call
I’m back in Rome
And I took the only road that leads to it
The road of a heart
That never left this timeless town

Almond Trees

Almond trees
Buds of white and pink
Blossom on the hills
On branches black as ink
Wild gypsies
Among the flowers bloom
Brown kisses
Blissful lips of doom
Crooked, dry they are
Their fruit both soft and hard
Happy, fierce they stand
With their roots
Down into barren land
Milk takes long to come
And promises can break at dawn
Almond trees may look fearsome
When the morning mist lingers on
Where love is missing
On the black mountain hills
There is no kissing
Among the almond trees
No kissing among
Almond trees

Our Holiday
03:02

There was friendship
Floating in the air
On a nice trip
In the middle of nowhere
We were playing the fool
Life without care
It was just another
Happy holiday
With smiles on our lips
We went to the shore
We had beer & chips
Laughing galore
We were killing the blues
ln a moment we shared
It was just another
Lazy sunny day
And so graceful we went
Feeling grateful we went
Strolling on a journey
With the love of friends
It was
Our holiday
Then on this nice trip
From out of nowhere
We found a big ship
Embarked from there
Off to see the world
The breeze in our hair
It was just another
Crazy getaway
And so graceful we went
Feeling grateful we went
Sailing on a journey
With the love of friends
It was
Our holiday

What's With the Wind?

What’s with the wind?
It’s getting on my nerves
Laughing as it blurs
My memories
Faces of forgotten winters
What’s with this wind?
It’s scaring all the girls
Tearing off their pearls,
And necklaces
Traces of forsaken lovers
I hear it sing
Of stories from my past
Those loves that did not last
And it taunts me
Harsh wind
So sarcastic in tone
With such a mocking moan
Leaving me no rest
The devil wind
Puts me to the test
I hear it sing
Of old tales from my past
Those passions gone too fast
And it haunts me
Cruel wind
What’s with the wind?

On dit que tout jeune femme
Un amour
Fit vaciller son âme
Nuit et jour
Désormais la flamme éteinte
Le cœur est lourd
Seule
Un voile sur son regard de velours
Comme au hasard
La vie suit son cours
Le temps passe et se ressemble
Les amours changent
Danser, fumer
Sortir dîner au bras d'un homme
Élégant
Désinvolte
Sans penser au lendemain
Libre comme le vent
Est-ce là tout ce qu'elle attend ?
Non
Dame aux diamants
Elle sait bien au fond
Qu'il fut un temps
Où c'était si bon
Et le soir tard dans le noir
Elle pleure
