Oh on the silver screen      he melts my foolish heart       in every single scene 
 
 
Although I?m quite aware         that here and there      are traces      of a cad 
                                                                                                           B7

And all because I?m mad               about the boy.  
 
 
Spero sia giusta. Piero Bosca
