Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Volevo Averti Per Me by Gino Paoli from Italian to English.
Volevo averti per me
I wanted to have you for myself
Ma tu sai che non è possibile
But you know that's not possible
Ti farei solamente piangere
I would only make you cry
Dolcemente vorrei sorriderti
Sweetly I would like to smile at you
Senza dirti la verità
Without telling you the truth
Questa è la felicità
This is happiness
Ma tu sai, dura solo un attimo
But you know, it only lasts a moment
Lascerà solamente lacrime
It will only leave tears
Ma vorrei che tu non piangessi per me
But I wish you wouldn't cry for me
Che tu fossi felice con me
That you were happy with me
Non ho visto nessuna più bella di te
I haven't seen anyone more beautiful than you
Non ho avuto nessuna più dolce di te
I haven't had anyone sweeter than you
Volevo averti per me
I wanted to have you for myself
Ma per te non saprò che piangere
But I won't know what to cry for you
Anche se vorrei darti l'anima
Even though I would like to give you my soul
Ma vorrei che tu non piangessi per me
But I wish you wouldn't cry for me
Che tu fossi felice con me
That you were happy with me
Volevo averti per me
I wanted to have you for myself
Ma per te non saprò che piangere
But I won't know what to cry for you
Anche se vorrei darti l'anima
Even though I would like to give you my soul
Ma se sei infelice cercami amor
But if you are unhappy look for me love
Ti darò tutto quello che ho
I'll give you everything I have
