"No wonder my happy heart sings, your love has given me wings"... when was the last time we heard such lyrics without having to reach back 50 years? This is why this song and thousands of others will live on forever... they touch the human heart, regardless of time and place.
this made me cry bc my grandpa used to sing this to me and my brother when we were little and he's no longer with us but this is such a beautiful song ❤
I remember dancing to this song and a few other great ones with a young beautiful Paizana named Rosa at Nino,s Pizzaria at 47Th & Belmont Street in Belmont Heights in Washington, DC. ( Little Italy). She has a younger Sister named Appalonia. Well thank God their Daddy never found out, and if he did, well it was to late to say anything. He did not want his Daughters being around me. He told them that I am just a young Sicilian ( but of course American) boy on his way to being a Gangster. And thank God I never became one. I later joined the Marines.
Volare, oh oh
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Let's fly way up to the clouds
Away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like birds of a feather, a rainbow together we'll find
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno cosi non ritorni mai piu
Mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
E volavo, volavo felice piu in alto del sole ed ancora piu su
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiu
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me
Volare, oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
