Io Per Lui
Patty Pravo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

È lui che mi sveglia al mattino
E alla notte mi dice
Che per lui sono tutto sai perché
Io per lui, io per lui morirei
Per quegli occhi vivrei
Una vita di più
Io per lui, io per lui vincerei
Anche il sole perché
Questa vita che ho e per lui
Lui mi dice: "Sei una donna che vale"
Non arrenderti mai, lotta sempre
Io gli credo, sai perché
Io per lui, io per lui morirei
Per quegli occhi vivrei
Una vita di più
Io per lui, io per lui vincerei
Anche il sole perché
Questa vita che ho è per lui
Lui mi dice: "Sei una donna che vale"
Non arrenderti mai, lotta sempre
Io gli credo, sai perché
Io per lui

Io per lui, io per lui vincerei




Anche il sole perché
Questa vita che ho è per lui
