(Mantero)

Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu
Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te
Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu

Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te, oh baby!

So baby now I run away from reality
Cause when I see you in my heart there is a melody
The moon is smiling to you
And you are smiling to me
There is a star in the sky that shine

Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu
Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te
Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu
Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te, oh baby!

Stella Cometa
Tra tutte tu sei la mia meta
Di notte risplendi
L'amore negli uomini accendi

So baby now I run away from reality
Cause when I see you in my heart there is a melody
The moon is smiling to you
And you are smiling to me
There is a star in the sky that shine

Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu
Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te
Sei una stella tu
E nel cielo blu

Non c'è stella che
Brilli più di te, oh baby!
