O Sole Mio

(album: Pop Goes The World - 1987)

O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio

So high give me your love, imagination
Run wild and tell me your mind, 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 the 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 heat the stages
How far is the mountain above, where I 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 nothings there
Oh sole mio, I was a rainbow, I was a rainbow

So now give me your love in celebration
Of life and love, of fascination
So now give me your heart, my guardian angel knows
Oh no, oh ho, I was a rainbow

Mother mother, can't you see, something's wrong inside of me
Every time I try to say the words they don't come out right
Mother, mother if you please, life has got me on my knees
I'm expecting someone's love to come and hit me blindside

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
Every time I try to say the words they don't come out right

And me, I was a rainbow
O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio
O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio
O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio, O sole mio
