[English]

Because I know you

You're better than me

Because you'll give her

Everything you have

Because as long as you live

You'll only love her

I won't do anything

To bring her back to me

She'll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

Make her laugh because

She'll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

She cried too much

With me

Even if I suffer

More than I know

Even if I already know

That I will regret

Even if for me

She would leave you too

I won't do anything

To bring her back to me

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

Make her laugh because

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

She cried too much

With me

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

But if you love her

A little less than I do

But if you change

And become another man

But if you ruin

What I did for her

I swear I’ll return

And take her back

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

Make her laugh because

She’ll laugh, she’ll laugh, she’ll laugh

She cried too much

With me

...

[Italian]

Perché tu io lo so

Sei migliore di me

Perché tu le darai

Tutto quello che hai

Perché finche' vivrai

Amerai solo lei

Non faro' niente

Per riportarla da me

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Tu falla ridere perché

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Ha pianto troppo

Insieme a me

Anche se soffriro'

Piu' di quello che so

Anche se gia' lo so

Che io mi pentiro'

Anche se lei per me

Lascerebbe anche te

Non faro' niente

Per riportarla da me

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Tu falla ridere perché

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Ha pianto troppo

Insieme a me

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Ma se tu l'amerai

Un po meno di me

Ma se tu cambierai

E un altro uomo sarai

Ma se tu sciuperai

Quello che ho fatto per lei

Giuro che tornero'

E la riprendero'

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Tu falla ridere perché

Ridera' ridera' ridera'

Ha pianto troppo

Insieme a me.
