Sant'allegria (Bem Leve)

And it rises and rises and rises closer to the skin
On top of a mountain full of stars
And the evening falls and falls, but it's so short tonight
Black, black riviera, there are those who hope and those who go
One prayer, two prayers I will pray
In the doubt of the evening
Another sentence, half a sentence I'll wait
Hoping it's true

And sun, sun that rises, red that shines
In the midst of a wish falls, a star falls
Star, star that falls between things, the streets
This is what happens
For those who come and those who go

Holy joy, holy love that goes away
Listen to me tonight
Another half sentence, sentence I will wait
Hoping it's true

And the shadow of a flower rises, rises
Serene rainbow, from pain to pain
It's falling, the evening is falling, but it's so short tonight
Black, black riviera there are those who hope and those who go

One prayer, two prayers I will pray
In the doubt of the evening
Another sentence, half a sentence I'll wait
Hoping it's true

Holy joy, holy love that goes away
Listen to me tonight
Another sentence half sentence I will wait
Hoping it's true
