Cara Mia

Venice canals, a gondola
A love song on the mandola
The notes I play ring clear and bright
They waft and float into the night

There beneath the light of moon
That shines on you, illumed, I swoon
But catch myself before I fall
Your beauty has me steeped in awe

You shift your body on the seat
Then look at me with eyes so sweet
You pat the spot that's next to you
For me to sit, and so I do

And then the greatest thing takes place
You place a kiss right on my face
Then say, "You know, right? Dos, I do"
And I respond, "I love you too"

...Cara Mia, Ti Amo Con Tutto Il Cuore...
