A perfect day
A simple night
You couldn’t say
We didn’t try
I wouldn’t change
You for my life
I love the way
We said goodbye
You’re living here
And cheating time
Amalfi Coast
A friend of mine
I couldn’t stay
A butterfly
I love the way
We said goodbye
But for a minute
I want to stay
If you were in it
I would throw my life away
And for a minute
I want to stay
If you were in it
I would throw my life away
Baby would you like to dance?
Lean into an olive branch
Step into your forgiveness
On the cliff the precipice
Baby would you like to dance?
Lean into an olive branch
Step into your forgiveness
On the cliff the precipice
A golden day
A silver night
The reddest moon
I didn’t cry
I wouldn’t change
You for my life
I love the way
We said goodbye
