"Dio, Come Ti Amo (Oh God How Much I Love You)" lyrics - SHIRLEY BASSEY

Remember, why must I remember?
Why can't I simply close my eyes, go to sleep
And make him disappear?
Why must I always hear?

Dio come ti-amo
Those were the words he said
Oh god, how much I love you
It still runs through my head

The wind began to blow
And all the leaves were flying
He stood there in the night
And tried to keep from crying

What could I have told him?
What could I say of you?
When love has lost its meaning
It's over, it's through

And so I hurried on
For someone new was waiting
To hold me in his arms
In endless celebrating

But that was long ago
And many loves have I
But only one was real
And that I let slip by

Dio come ti-amo
I still can hear him say
Oh god, how much I love you
Yet I walked away

I know it's much too late
But I'll go right on praying
To have you back again
So you can hear me saying

Dio come ti-amo
Oh god, how much I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you
