| When somebody loved me, | Quando da alcuno fui amato, |
| Everything was beautiful | il mondo ardeva in pura grazia |
| Every hour we spent together lives within my heart | ogni ora insieme ancora palpita nel sacrario del mio cuore |
| And when she was sad, | E quando era dolente, |
| I was there to dry her tears | io le asciugavo il pianto dalle ciglia |
| And when she was happy, | E quando era ridente, |
| So was I | ridevo anch'io |
| When she loved me | quando m'amava |
| |
| Through the summer and the fall | Per l'estate e l'autunno |
| We had each other, that was all | ci bastavamo a vicenda, null'altro al mondo |
| Just she and I together, | soltanto lei con me, raccolti insieme, |
| Like it was meant to be | come decreto antico del destino |
| And when she was lonely, | E quando era deserta di conforto, |
| I was there to comfort her | io le porgevo quiete come un porto |
| And I knew that she loved me | e sapevo ch'ella m'amava |
| |
| So the years went by | Così gli anni trascorsero |
| I stayed the same | io rimasi l'eguale |
| But she began to drift away | ma lei prese a svanire come nebbia |
| I was left alone | e fui lasciato solo |
| Still I waited for the day | pure attesi quel giorno |
| When she'd say I will always love you | in cui avrebbe sussurrato: t'amerò per sempre |
| |
| Lonely and forgotten, | Solo e dimenticato, |
| I'd never thought she'd look my way | mai avrei creduto mi posasse gli occhi addosso |
| And she smiled at me and held me just like she used to do | e mi sorrise e mi strinse come un tempo soleva fare |
| Like she loved me | quasi m'amasse |
| When she loved me | quando m'amava |
| |
| When somebody loved me | Quando da alcuno fui amato, |
| Everything was beautiful | il mondo ardeva in pura grazia |
| Every hour we spent together lives within my heart | ogni ora insieme ancora palpita nel sacrario del mio cuore |
| When she loved me | quando m'amava |
