On Days Like These- Peter Grantr, Matt Monroe


Questi giorni quando vieni, il bel soleLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, la
On days like these when skies are blue and fields are greenI look around and think about what might have beenAnd then I hear sweet music float around my headAs I recall the many things we left unsaid
And it's on days like these that I rememberSinging songs and drinking wineWhile your eyes play games with mine
On days like these I wonder what became of youMaybe today you are singing songs with someone newI'd like to think you're walking by those willow treesRemembering the love we knew on days like these
And it's on days like these that I rememberSinging songs and drinking wineWhile your eyes play games with mine
On days like these I wonder what became of youMaybe today you are singing songs with someone new
Questi giorni quando vieni, il bel soleLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, laLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Songwriters: Don Black / Quincy Jones
