Caruso (Spring Song)
Lucio Dalla - ESL
(CAPO @ III)
Am Dm G7
One day you wake, you look
around, the world is like a flower,
You take a deep breath,
lift your face up to the gentle wind.
You touch my hand, you
smile, I feel that in this hour,
Creation's dormant spirit
is awakening.
The new day's just
begun,
The leaves unfold the
seventh day of spring.
Long winter days are
done,
You are a blossom and I
am a king.
Like many men before me I
have come to America,
Epitome of every human
flowering.
My dreams my hopes summed
up in just one word America
In you forever all men
find their wings.
My new life's just
begun,
On seventh hour of the
seventh day of spring.
Long winter days are
done,
America my love, of thee
I sing.
My kingdom's infinite and
it's been thus forever,
I know not when it ends,
not where it does begin.
Immortal as I am I hoist
the flag of never,
The master that makes all
that's verdant green.
INSTR.
I pause one million years
to contemplate your nature,
In retrospect it feels just
like an hour's fling.
Your essence still eludes
me you hermetic creature,
Yet innocently you just
keep on flowering.
A new age's just begun,
It's seventh hour of the
seventh day of spring.
Long winter days are
done,
You are a blossom and ...
I am but a king.
