My landlady has a cassette tape of Time to Say Goodbye sung by Sarah
Brightman and Andrea Botecelli. The reason why she is so keen on it is
because she played it at her son's funeral and is very much interested
to know what the words are; especially, a translation from the Italian
lyrics would be most appreciated.

I don't know Italian but I would be very grateful if someone can give me
ideas as to where I can get a copy of the lyric both in Italian and the
English translation.

Thank you.

Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman

Time To Say Goodbye
Quando sono solo
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole
si lo so che non c'Ė luce
in una stanza
quando manca il sole
se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai acceso
chiudi dentro me
la luce che
hai incontrato per strada

Time to say goodbye
paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te
adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
su navi per mari
che io lo so
no no non esistono piu
It's time to say goodbye.

Quando sei lontana
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole
e io si lo so
che sei con me con me
tu mia luna tu sei qui con me
mio sole tu sei qui con me
con me con me con me
Time to say goodbye
paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te
adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
su navi per mari
che io lo so
no no non esistono piu
con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
su navi per mari
che io lo so
no no non esistono piu
con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
Io con te.

Time to Say Goodbye
When I'm alone
I dream on the horizon
and words fail;
yes, I know there is no light
in a room
where the sun is not there
if you are not with me.
At the windows
show everyone my heart
which you set alight;
enclose within me
the light you
encountered on the street.

Time to say goodbye,
to countries I never
saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them,
I'll go with you
on ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer;
with you I shall experience them.

When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
and words fail,
and yes, I know
that you are with me;
you, my moon, are here with me,
my sun, you are here with me.
with me, with me, with me,

Time to say goodbye,
to countries I never
saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them,
I'll go with you
on ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer;
with you I shall re-experience them.
I'll go with you
on ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer;
with you I shall re-experience them.
I'll go with you,
I with you.

Fast track for tenor from Tuscany
by: Clare Garner

It has taken just one week for Andrea Bocelli to storm the
British charts. The blind Tuscan tenor was a complete
unknown when he performed on the National Lottery show
last week. Now, after minimal radio air-play, he has gone
straight to the Number Two slot.

The single, a romantic Italian duet entitled "Time to Say
Goodbye" ("Con Te Partiro") and sung by Bocelli and Sarah
Brightman, was originally recorded by Bocelli alone. The
story goes that Ms Brightman was so enchanted when she
heard the solo version in a restaurant that she asked staff
about it. She had been asked to find a song to sing at the
retirement fight of the German world light-heavyweight
champion, Henry Maske, and felt "Con Te Partiro" was
perfect.

Having tracked Bocelli down, the song was re-recorded with
the London Symphony Orchestra and the pair's
performance in the ring in November delighted the crowd.
Even Maske wept.
