Lyrics - Because We Believe by Andrea Bocelli

This is a very lovely song.

Guarda fuori e'gia'mattina (Look outside: its morning)
Questo e'un giorno che ricorderai (This is a day you'll remember)
Alzati in fretta e vai (Hurry, get up and go)
C' Non ti arrendere (There are those who believe in you Don't give up)

Once in every life
There comes a time
We walk out all alone
And into the light
The moment won't last but then,
We remember it again
When we close our eyes.

Like stars across the sky
E per avvincere (And in order to shine)
Tu dovrai vincere (You will have to win)
We were born to shine
All of us here because we believe

Guarda avanti e non voltarti mai (Look ahead and never turn your back)
Accarezza con i sogni tuoi (On the caress of your dreams,)
Le tue speranze e poi (Your hopes and then,)
Verso il giorno che verr C' (Turn towards the day that will be There is a finish line there.)

Like stars across the sky
E per avvincere (And in order to shine)
Tu dovrai vincere (You will have to win)
Like stars across the sky

Non arrenderti (Don't give up)
Qualcuno (Someone is with you)

Like stars across the sky
We were born to shine
E per avvincere (And in order to shine)
Dovrai vincere (You will have to win)
E allora vincerai (And then, you will win)

I think Andrea Bocelli has a very peaceful voice. Everytime I hear him sing, I feel like something inside me feels at peace. I will feel relaxed and though I don't understand what he was really singing about, his voice just seemed to speak something comforting.

Try it. Put on a song by Andrea Bocelli on a lazy day when you are alone anywhere in your house. Put the volume high enough to fill the entire room (no higher - just enough for you to hear the main instruments accompanying his voice) and just sit down and relax. I guarantee you that you will be moved in some way. You might cry, you might suddenly lose all thoughts of the day, or you might even feel sleepy (for some).

But if you listen through the whole session with no expectations - be mesmerised.

I cried once listening to Andrea Bocelli singing Time to Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman version in the living room, using my dad's quite-kao-in-those-days, hi-fi system. Heh!
