Senza un perché literally translates to "without a why". This beautiful and poetic phrase is used to describe a love that is pure, unconditional, and doesn't need a reason to exist.
In the song, Andrea Bocelli sings "Sei la sola senza un perché" (You are the only one, without a why). It's a powerful way to express a deep, all-encompassing love that transcends logic and explanation, making it a truly memorable highlight of the lyrics.
This is a beautiful and direct love song from the legendary Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, joined by pop superstar Ed Sheeran. The song's message is simple and powerful: a declaration of total, exclusive love for one person.
The singer feels it's been too long since he and his partner have had time alone, singing, "È troppo tempo che / Non siamo soli io e te" (It's been too long / since you and I were alone). He tells his love that he doesn't need any other light in his life because, "il mio sole sarai" (you will be my sun). He gently encourages his partner to speak, even giving them the words to say: "Prova ti amo ancora" (Try 'I love you still'). The whole song builds to the main point in the chorus, a pure and simple statement: "Amo soltanto te" (I love only you).
