Lyrics Robertino Loretti - Luna Rossa

Neapolitan
Luna rossa
Vaco distrattamente abbandunato,
ll'uocchie sott' 'o cappiello annascunnute,
mane 'int' 'a sacca e bávero aizato,
vaco siscanno ê stelle ca só' asciute.

E 'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te,
i' lle domando si aspietta a me,
e mme risponne: "Si 'o vvuó' sapé,
ccá nun ce sta nisciuna."

E i' chiammo 'o nomme pe' te vedé,
ma tutt''a gente ca parla 'e te,
risponne: "E' tarde che vuó' sapé?
Ccá nun ce sta nisciuna!"

Luna rossa,
chi mme sarrá sincera?
Luna rossa,
se n'è ghiuta ll'ata sera
senza mme vedé.

E i' dico ancora ch'aspietta a me,
for' 'o barcone stanott' ê ttre,
e prega 'e Sante pe' mme vedé.
Mma nun ce sta nisciuna!

Mille e cchiù appuntamente aggio tenuto,
tante e cchiù sigarette aggio appicciato,
mille tazze 'e café mme só' bevuto,
mille vucchelle amare aggio vasato.

E 'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te,
I' lle domando si aspietta a me,
e mme risponne: "Si 'o vvuó' sapé,
ccá nun ce sta nisciuna."

Ccá nun ce sta nisciuna.

I'm walking distracted and abandoned…
eyes hidden under the hat
hands in pockets and raised collar…
I'm walking whistling to the stars that came out

And the scarlet moon telling me about you
I asked if you're waiting for me,
and it replied: "If you want to know,
There is no one here…"

And I call your name to see you,
but, all the people talking about you
reply: "It's late what do want to know?
There is no one here!…"

Scarlet moon,
who's going to be sincere with me?
Scarlet moon,
she left the other night
without seeing me…

I've had a thousand and more dates…
I've lighted even more cigarettes…
I've drunk many cups of coffee…
I've kissed a thousand bitter lips…

And the scarlet moon telling me about you
I asked if you're waiting for me,
and it replied: "If you want to know,
There is no one here…"

And I call your name to see you,
but, all the people talking about you
reply: "It's late what do want to know?
There is no one here!…"

And I keep telling myself that she's still waiting for me
out on the balcony tonight at 3,
and that she prays to the Saints to see me…
But no one is here…
