The Rat Pack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
Let's fly way up to the clouds
Away from the maddening crowds
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Just like bird of a feather, a rainbow together we'll find
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno cosi non ritorni mai piu
Mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito
Volare, oh oh
E contare, oh oh oh oh
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
E volavo, volavo felice piu in alto del sole ed ancora piu su
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiu
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me
Volare, oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
Felice di stare lassu
The Rat Pack's song Volare is a romantic ballad about a couple flying away from the chaos of life, towards a better place where they can be together and find peace of mind. The first verse talks about flying away to the clouds, far from the maddening crowds, where they can sing in the glow of a star that the singer knows of. The singer suggests leaving behind the confusion and disillusion of life, and finding a place where they can be happy and together, like "birds of a feather". The chorus then comes in with "Volare, oh oh, cantare, oh oh oh oh" which translates to "to fly, oh oh, to sing, oh oh oh oh".
The next verse talks about how the singer's heart sings with joy because of their love, which has given the singer wings. The singer suggests that they are living a dream that they never thought would come true. The lyrics say "I think that such a dream will never return, I was painting my hands and face blue, then suddenly I was stolen by the wind and began to fly in the infinite sky".
