Sei il mio destino
Adriano Celentano Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are my destiny
Sei in tutti i giorni miei
La vita e facile
Se tu ci sei...

Tu mi fai credere
Che e bello esistere
Pur di non perderti

Mi perderei...

Forse l'amore non ha
Un senso della verita
Ma se sbagliero, so che mi aiuterai
A non arrenderci mai...

You are my destiny
E non ci lascerai:
Un vero angelo
Non vola mai...

You are my destiny
Sei in tutti i giorni miei

La vita e facile
Se tu ci sei.
