THE END OF MY GIGOLO WANNA BE WAYS I dreamed the strangest dream On a cruise was I Across the high seas. A Winter chill stilled the air. I was tanned and dressed for the kill As I walked into the hall. The pain that was mine Haunted me still. But I moved with grace and fluidity. The music began to...

GIGOLO I want to be a gigolo Yes indeed I’m quite a hunk So I’ve been told By many. I want to dance my way To New York. Paris, Rome And Bali. But then again This quid pro quo Is not who I am. It doesn’t go with my sense of morality. It must have been the gypsy in me. What a waste [So they say] I...

STUMBLE AND FALL We all stumble and fall Once or twice Some of us more On the roads we walk To our finality. Yet somehow we know How To pull ourselves up again.

CAN YOU DANCE THE TANGO Can you dance the tango. Can you hold me close Show me the way As I used to glide across the room So easily. Can you make me feel The harmony of motion The grace that once was mine. Can you make me move again in ecstasy Fire in my veins. Can you just for a moment Take away...

Lyrics to soothe the fear Of an end that draws all too near Calling my soul back to the light Dying from thoughts sad and unkind Free...

YOU WHO KNOW Tell me You who know Where will all my love go My fire, my passion, my energy My pleasures and my pain The light in my soul When my flesh grows cold And they bury me. Tell me You who know. Where does the love go. Will I live again when I end In someone’s thoughts and memory. Tell me....

SIMPICITY I came to this earth On this Fall day Many years ago Caught my breath And here I am And here I stay Until the day My breath is taken from me By some Unknown And Unkind Entity. Then Back I go from where I came. What simplicity. The end.

Corridors I dream of corridors narrow and long Drenched in blinding sunlight Raspberry silk n the wall Dancing in the wind. I run to see what’s ahead of me Hope languishes in my soul As darkness begins to fall. Where then is heaven’s gate Tell me Why can’t I reach the end Of corridors narrow and...

Angelì [ITALIAN VERSION FOLLOWS] [Inspired by tales told to me by my Calabrian grandmother] Angelì, Angelì Do you see me Silently Breaking through the morning mist. Across fields kissed by Winter’s chill. Now I stand under your window Never far Always near to you. Angelì do you hear me whisper your...
