Tombe degli avi miei,
L'ultimo avanzo
D'una stirpe infelice
Deh! raccogliete voi. Cessò dell'ira
Il breve foco… Sul nemico acciaro
Abbandonar mi vo'. Per me la vita
È orrendo peso!...
L'universo intero
È un deserto per me senza Lucia!…
Di faci tuttavia
Splende il castello! Ah! Scarsa
Fu la notte al tripudio!
Ingrata donna!
Mentre io me struggo in disperato
Pianto,
Tu ridi, esulti accanto
Al felice consorte!
Tu delle gioie in seno,
Tu delle gioie in seno,
Io della morte!
Io della morte!

Fra poco a me ricovero
Darà negletto avello...
Una pietosa lagrima
Non scenderà su quello!
Ah! Fin degli estinti, ahi,
Misero!
Manca il conforto a me!
Tu pur, tu pur dimentica
Que marmo dispregiato:
Mai non passarvi, o barbara,
Del tuo consorte a lato... Ah!
Rispetta almen le ceneri
Di chi moria per te.
Rispetta almen le ceneri
Di chi moria per te.
Mai non passarvi, to lo dimentica,
Rispetta almeno chi muore per te.
Mai non passarvi, to lo dimentica,
Rispetta almeno chi muore,
Chi muore per te.
O barbara, rispetta almen le ceneri...
Ah! di chi moria

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
