More
Caterina Valente & Werner Müller And His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is the love I'll give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day
More than you'll ever know my arms
Long to hold you so my life
Will be in your keeping
Longer than always is a long long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more
Se tu mi guardi in fondo al cuor vedrai
Un nome scritto con le nuvole
E se quel nome leggerai
Una voce sentirai
La mia voce che ti dice
T'amo, t'amo, t'amo
Sulle parole che si spengono
Cadono mille note tenere
E per la mia felicit
Per la tua felicit??
Questo canto rester
More than you'll ever know my arms
Want to hold you so my life
Will be in your keeping,
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more
The lyrics of the song "More" by Caterina Valente and Werner Müller evoke the feeling of an intense, all-encompassing love that surpasses all boundaries, distances, and time periods. The first stanza talks about the love that the singer will give to his/her beloved, which is greater than any love the world has ever known. The singer expresses how he/she only lives to love the other person more and more each day, and how simple words fail to express the depth of this love. The second stanza continues to emphasize the limitless quality of this love, through the use of figurative language, such as "Longer than always" and "far beyond forever." The singer declares that he/she has never felt alive before meeting the beloved, and that nobody else could possibly love the other person more.
The Italian lines at the end of the song translate to "If you look into my heart, you will see a name written with the clouds. And if you read that name, you will hear a voice, my voice, telling you: I love you, I love you, I love you. On the words that fade away, a thousand tender notes fall, and for my happiness, for your happiness, this song will remain." This adds another layer of romanticism to the song, as the singer imagines a name written with the clouds, and how their love will endure even beyond words and music.
