Coming by train last night, I swear it’s not easy, to keep love out of sight, you live in Naples, and rock me gently, tell me everything's OK, it's a perfect night, the moon’s over the sea, in your arms I cry, fresh linen at the table, the soul of lost seasons, what’s sought in a fable, we talk of a writer, called Lisa Passolini, you kiss me quietly, from the roof we’re able, to see Saint Peter's, patron saint of this place, voices drain and die, be whatever you can be, I soar like a kite, serene.

I don't want to know, if you really believe, I'll sink like stone, fall while you pray, consoled by your money, keep the house anyway, when I’m all alone, I’ll think of the sea, no one has to groan, I hear what you say, you pour out your soul, like a sad nightingale, about what you own, it’s a taste bittersweet, for bricks and loans, you ask why I’m late, to comfort your needs, you’re no one to state, I’m just skin and bone, if your life’s that easy, you’d better get going, I’m with the bees.

Love blows cold at night, howls in ancient places, waits for us to dine, when promises are broken, spirits dance a lonely flame, bring forth ancient tomes, it will be all right. what you need to say, is just give me time, beyond this anger zone, I’ll sacrifice fame, to places we both know, we’ll laugh in warmer times, no one here's to blame, part of me is crying, do what we can alone, who needs to betray, rivers rise on their own, don't turn silent, there’ll be love again, we’ll return like the tide, a leap on every wave.

Why don’t you redeem, the light in your smile, no more deceit, wolves howl at the moon, songs sung as a child, fight above an open tomb, words thrown to the sea, lost without signs, makes everyone believe, you ache for some truth, a power beyond my sight, that faithful you, no more bitter feeds, always catching at the fire, in whispered needs, winter fuel, a drink of wine, helps all our virtues, before you came for me, to tell me who’s right, you carry love eternally, it dances in my eyes.

Some things you can't rule, in this gentle rain, no need for winter fuel, scrubbed by desire, I hear myself say, it's only by fire, wait for the good news, buckle down the highway, untroubled by the Blues, like birds on a wire, it’s hard to ascertain, who's the biggest liar, she boils me in a stew, adds salt to the taste, love’s a bitter fruit, she doesn't ask why, I dance without shame, lost in the sky, who needs a fool, to turn the earth grey, you'll find what you lose, when spring comes again

We drink together for company, God knows if you’re right, we’ll always need sympathy, what's with these few, who stay out of sight, only come awake at noon, they leave us no peace. fear grips their sight, worry guides their being, our dreams sharp as new, marching up to sunlight, we won’t truck with fools, you say look how easy, it is to sail the sky, nothing stands our scrutiny, we're so happy and cool, in the morning fire, everything we say and do, you can taste the sea, don’t say way up high, you’re as scared as me, ask who turns the tide?

Parade all the while, when you’re on the way, walk the lonely miles, in your bones, you’re not meant to stay, alone, you leave the good times, for your holy grail, you don’t have a dime, can you atone, when it's blowing a gale, you’re that far gone, flip a coin to the sky, think of hoisting sail, your shirt is just fine, drink wine from a Jeroboam, covet some desolate mail, throw stones at your ghosts, what is it to cry, when love’s like a snail, you're not going to lie, it’s no worse than jail.
