umbertino Posted November 20, 2021 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Beautiful imho....Music & lyrics I would like to meet you outside the gates of a factory (plant), I would like to meet you along the roads leading to India I would like to meet you but I do not know what I would do: perhaps I 'd suddenly cry of joy. I would like to find you while you sleep in a sea of grass and then take you to my house on the cliff, show you the memories of what I have been, show you the statue of what I am now. I would like to know you but I do not know what to call you, I would like to follow you but the people overwhelms you: I was waiting for you when it was raining outside, and my room was filled with silence for you. I would like to meet just when I'm about to fall, among thousand faces just recognize you, sing your song, sing it to me: maybe one day I'll sing for you. I would like to know you but I do not know what to call you, I would like to follow you but the people overwhelms you: I was waiting for you when it was raining outside, and my room was filled with silence for you. I would like to meet you outside the gates of a factory, I would like to meet you along the roads leading to India I would like to meet you but I do not know what I would do: perhaps I'd suddenly cry of joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umbertino Posted November 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 You Tell Her (in Neapolitan dialect) Toni Esposito - percussion Old song (composed 1930 ) revisited Tell this to your friend that I lost my sleep and my thoughts, that I always think of her that she’s my whole life, and there’s something I’d like to tell her myself but I cannot tell her this [Refrain:] I love her a lot, I love her more than a lot. You tell her this I won’t ever forget her, she’s a passion, stronger than a chain that torments my soul and doesn’t let me live Tell her that she’s a rose of May, that is much more beautiful than a sunny day. From her lips that are fresher than violets I still want to hear That she’s in love with me (refrain) A glistening teardrop is about to fall, tell me for a moment, who do you think of? With such sweet eyes thyself alone is staring at me. Let’s do away with these masks let us speak the truth I love you a lot, I love you more than a lot. It’s you this chain that will not ever break. Gentle dream my flesh is yearning for, I seek after you like the air, I need you in order to live Saw him eons ago (70's) at the beginning of his career and he was extremely good....Then through the years his music became more and more commercial and less and less interesting....Unfortunately.....
