Strolling around in Napoli
Under the clear blue sky
I heard a soft voice singing
A beautiful girl caught my eye
And from the corner of the street
Her song flew straight to me
Io te voglio bene assaje, e tu non pienze a me
Io te voglio bene assaje, e tu non pienze a me

I threw a dime into her cup
And she would not stop smiling
Her eyes were so beguiling
I asked her out on a date
The night was filled with salt and sand
And crashing waves that sang
Io te voglio bene assaje, e tu non pienze a me
Io te voglio bene assaie, e tu non pienze a me

I never felt her lips again
after that magic night
Many a tear I cried
Pain faded over the years
But when I walk along a beach
You’ll always hear me sing
Io te voglio bene assaie, e tu non pienze a me
Io te voglio bene assaie, e tu non pienze a me
