Parole, parole [English translation]

Spoken: Darling, what’s happening to me tonight?

I look at you, and it’s just like the first time.

Sung: What are you, what are you, what are you on about?

Spoken: I don’t want to talk…

Sung: What are you…?

Spoken: …but you are the words of love that are begun and never ended.

Sung: You never change, you never change, you never change

Spoken: You are my yesterday, my today…

Sung: You really never change at all

Spoken: …and my restless eternity…

Sung: By now you’ve made your point

Call me torment, go on, while you’re at it

Spoken: You’re like the wind that carries the violins and the roses.

Sung: I don’t want any candy or sweets

Spoken: Sometimes I don’t understand you…

Sung: Roses and violins – go tell it to another girl

I can have violins and roses when I feel like it, if I feel like it

When it’s the right moment… and then we’ll see

[chorus]

Spoken: One more word–

Sung: Words, words, words

Spoken: Listen to me–

Sung: Words, words, words

Spoken: I beg you–

Sung: Words, words, words

Spoken: I swear to you–

Sung: Words, words, words, words, words, nothing but words between us.

Spoken: This is my fate: to speak to you, to speak to you just like the first time.

Sung: What are you, what are you, what are you on about?

Spoken: No, let’s not say anything – only the night is speaking…

Sung: What are you…?

Spoken: …the romantic night…

Sung: You never change, you never change, you never change

Spoken: You are my forbidden dream.

Sung: You really never change at all

Spoken: It’s true, hope–

Sung: No one can shut you up now!

Call me passion, go on, just in case

Spoken: The moonlight fades in your eyes and the crickets start to sing…

Sung: I don’t want any candy or sweets

Spoken: If you didn’t already exist, I’d have to invent you.

Sung: The moon and the crickets usually keep me awake

While I’m trying to sleep and dream

Of the man you can sometimes be, when he’s there

The man who talks less, but knows how to please me

[chorus]
