Joe Cocker Feat. Eros Ramazzotti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
no grounds to feel jealous
but I'm just a guy
who's gotta say it like it is
I must be sure of your love
on that I exist
is there someone
to whose heart you would run
darling, I will be gone
but if he is just stealing from me
then that would be wrong
I stand my ground
against any man
who would try to take you from my arms
if you know me at all
you know I don't let go
as long as you want me
that's all I need to know
Difenderò
tutto ciò che sento mio
il mondo che ho costruito
intorno a te
per questo io pretendo
la tua lealtà
difenderò l'amore mio
come solo so battermi io
posso farlo però
solamente se c'è
più di un motivo
per esser sicuro di te
I'm a peace loving man
but I'll take the blows
as long as you want me
that's all I need to know
I don't back down
when I've got my feet on the ground
I'm a peace loving man
Posso farlo però
But I'll take the blows
Solamente se c'è
As long as you want me
Più di un motivo
That's all I need to know
Per esser sicuro di te
That's all I need to know
Per esser sicuro di te
The lyrics to "That's All I Need To Know/Difenderò" by Joe Cocker & Eros Ramazzotti, speak to the insecurities and fears that come with loving someone deeply. The first stanza deals with jealousy and the need for reassurance in a relationship. The singer openly admits that he may not have any real reason to feel jealous, but he needs to know that his love is secure and not at risk of running off with someone else. He's willing to walk away if need be but wants honesty from his partner. He's even willing to defend his love against other men who may try to take her away, as he makes clear in the following verse.
When the song moves into its Italian section, Ramazzotti echoes these sentiments, expressing his own need to defend and protect his feelings for his loved one. He demands loyalty - la tua lealtà - and says he'll fight for his love in a way that only he knows how. The chorus repeats the sentiment that as long as his love remains steadfast, as long as he can be sure of her, that's all he needs to know. Both singers are willing to take whatever blows may come their way, whether they be emotional or physical, and remain peace-loving men - so long as their partners remain loyal.
Overall, "Difenderò/That's All I Need To Know" speaks to the fragility of romantic love and the deep-seated insecurities that can accompany it. These lyrics are a reminder that even the most confident-seeming people can have doubts and fears when it comes to matters of the heart.

Maybe I have no grounds to feel jealous
I may not have any valid reasons to feel jealous but I can't help how I feel
but I'm just a guy who's gotta say it like it is
I'm just being truthful about my feelings
I must be sure of your love on that I exist
My existence relies on being sure of your love
is there someone to whose heart you would run
Is there someone else who you would choose over me?
just tell me now darling, I will be gone
If there is someone else, please tell me and I will leave
but if he is just stealing from me then that would be wrong
If he is taking you away from me without a valid reason, that would be unfair
I stand my ground against any man who would try to take you from my arms
I won't let anyone take you away from me without a fight
if you know me at all you know I don't let go
If you know me well, you know that I hold onto what is mine
as long as you want me that's all I need to know
All I need to know is that you want me and are with me
Difenderò tutto ciò che sento mio
I will defend everything that I feel is mine
il mondo che ho costruito intorno a te
The world that I have built around you
per questo io pretendo la tua lealtà
For this reason, I demand your loyalty

I will defend my love like only I know how
posso farlo però solamente se c'è più di un motivo
But I can only do that if there is more than one reason to be sure of your love
I'm a peace-loving man but I'll take the blows
I prefer peace but I will fight if necessary
I don't back down when I've got my feet on the ground
I won't back down when I know that I'm right

Joe Cocker's voice rises above the sounds around him and he stood his ground. So beautiful voices both men and background singers.
