Piove - It's Raining

Mille violini suonati dal vento, tutti i colori dell'arcobaleno vanno a fermare la pioggia d'argento ma piove, piove sul nostro amor. Ciao, ciao, bambina, un bacio ancora e poi per sempre ti perderò. Come una fiaba l'amore passa, c'èra una volta poi non c'è più. Cos'è che trema sul tuo visino? è pioggia o pianto, dimmi cos'è? Vorrei trovare parole nuove ma piove, piove sul nostro amor. (Ciao, bambina, ti voglio bene da morire. Ciaooooo.....ciaooooo) Ciao, ciao, bambina. non ti voltare non posso dirti rimani ancor. Vorrei trovare parole nuove ma piove, piove sul nostro amor. "Piove" © 1959 Domenico Modugno and Dino Verde "Piove" won the 1959 Sanremo Music Festival, making it two in a row for Modugno at Italy's most prestigious pop music song contest. Modugno wrote the first and last lines of the chorus while waiting for a train in Pittsburg, where he witnessed two young lovers bidding farewell to each other in the rain.

Thousands of violins played by the wind, all the colors of the rainbow go to stop the silver rain, but it’s raining, it’s raining on our love. So long, so long, girl, one more kiss and then forever I will lose you. Like a fable, love passes, once upon a time, then no longer. What is it that trembles on your face? Is it rain or regret, tell me what it is? I would like to find new words but it’s raining, it’s raining on our love. (So long, girl, I love you to death. So long . . . so long.) So long, so long, girl. Don’t turn around I can’t tell you stay a little longer. I’d like to find new words, but it’s raining, it’s raining on our love.
