LONG LIFE LOVE
I was born in naples, you know?!Joy, anger, traffic ever more,
Men and women heroes of our days,
Youngers with ready bags to run away.
Between lying hearts and tense faces
And sad camorra eyes of disgraces.
Down there where tomorrow what will it be?! .
But then, "what′s the matter, we will see", (spoken)
Everyday we are waiting credulous for a new fast train
Which can bring us on peace island happyfully far away,
But every night we come back home disappointed for a life so hard
And more rough, more injured, we stay hanging with a silent heart.
I want to fly, to volare lontano,
I love l'amore, because i′m italiano.
I want to scream nude in the leas of grano.
Viva l'amor!... Long life love (spoken) viva l'amor!
I want to fly, to volare lontano,
With open arms like an aeroplano.
I love l′amore, because i′m napoletano.
Viva l'amor!... Long life love (spoken) viva l′amor!
You mother, daughter ... You... you my home town,
Exploited, dominated since first dawn.
You raped without care and mercy, i say!
Today abuses and atrocities again!
By newly powers, newly fascist and politician opportunists,
Cause i've grown inside of you
Sea water in the veins". (spoken)
Every night we′re waiting for dawn, a new ray of shinin' light,
Which can warm up our bones and give us back our voice so bright.
Faded eyes spying where dream will lead disenchanted and more tired,
But worthy and firm looking for an endless happy peaceful sky.
I want to fly, to volare lontano,
