Switzerland 2008 Eurovision Song
C’è una parte di me
che tacere non sa
quando guardo l’odio che c’è
il dolore, la povertà
mi rivedo bambino io
che correvo nel blu
Era stupendo volare via, sfidare il tempo, la fantasia
la tua mano e la mia, nella stessa poesia ,
era stupendo
Ma una notte vedrai
dal destino uscirò, lo giuro
se la vita ci aspetterà
torneremo laggiù
Sarà stupendo volare via,sfidare ancora il tempo,la fantasia
e poi la tua mano e la mia, nella stessa poesia
era stupendo, era stupendo
perchè non c’è pace finchè
tutti pensano a sè
era stupendo volare via, sfidare il tempo,la fantasia
la tua mano e la mia, nella stessa poesia.
era stupendo, era stupendo
English Translation
There’s a part of me
That can’t keep quiet
When I look at the hatred which is here
Pain, poverty
I see myself again as a child
Running in the blue
It was wonderful to fly away
To challenge the wind, the fantasy
Your hand and mine
In the same poem
It was wonderful
But one night you’ll see
I’ll run away from destiny, I swear
If life will wait for us
We’ll return down there
It will be wonderful to fly away
To challenge again the fantasy
And then your hand and mine
In the same poem
It was wonderful
It was wonderful
Because there’s no peace
Until everyone will think of themselves
It was wonderful to fly away
To challenge the wind, the fantasy
Your hand and mine
In the same poem
It was wonderful
It was wonderful

what’s the matter with Dima Bilan?
I think that ‘Believe’ is a beautiful song, but it doesn’t fit into ESC.

I think paolo meneguzzi is the best singer.his voice is a creation of love ..is a vast vision of nature … combination between immortal things..his voice tells you dosent matter what your language is ,and its a connection. (congratulations paolo)

Elmira, your words are pretty much the exact same thoughts I have! Paolo’s voice and his music move me so deeply and there is something unique about that person. I have all his cd’s both italian and spanish and I love every song. This man is simply beautiful, inside out!

Paolo’s voice is soooo great! This song is my favourite song and I’ve wished to pass to the final show but it didn’t
I was so angry and sad that it didn’t pass, that I went into my room snobbing. Dima Bilan’s song was good but Paolo’s song was MUCH BETTER! GOOD LUCK PAOLO AND KEEP IT UP! <3 XX
