O Sole Mio 7inch Lyrics - Men Without Hats

"O Sole Mio" by MEN WITHOUT HATS 

================================ 

So high 

give me your love 

imagination 

run wild 

tell me you're mine 

i can never remember your name 

so high 

give me your heart 

hey guardian angels 

more light, 

i'm falling in love 

and i want to remember my way 

Mother, mother 

can't you see 

everyone's in love with me 

O sole mio 

so far 

given the light 

of distant ages 

sometimes i can never be sure 

i can only remember today 

so now 

given enough 

i'll heed the sages 

how far is the mountain above 

well it wasn't a potion away 

Mother, mother 

can't you see 

everyone's in love with me 

(but only i know) 

all the people in the square 

try to act like nothing's there 

O sole mio 

(i was a rainbow) 

so now 

give me your love 

in celebration 

of life 

in love 

of fascination 

so now give me your heart 

my guardian angel knows 

(i was a rainbow) 

Mother, mother 

can't you see 

something's wrong inside me 

everytime i try to say the words 

they don't come out right 

Mother, mother 

if you please 

life has got me on my knees 

half expecting someone's love 

[to come] 

and hit me blind side 

Mother, mother 

if you care 

tell me i am unaware 

of what i'm doing to your beauty 

and your holy love-life 

Mother, mother 

if you please 

something's wrong inside of me 

everytime i try to say the words 

they don't come out right 

Me 

i was a rainbow 

O sole mio
