Time To Say Goodbye

Sarah

When I'm alone

I dream of the horizon

and words fail;

yes, I know there is no light

in a room where the sun is absent,

if you are not here with me.

At the windows

show everyone my heart

which you set alight;

enclose within me

the light you

encountered on the street.



Time to say goodbye. -- I'll go with you

to countries I never

saw and shared with you,

now, yes, I shall experience them.

I'll go with you

on ships across seas

which, I know,

no, no, exist no longer;

it's time to say goodbye. -- with you I shall experience them.



Andrea

When you are far away

I dream of the horizon

and words fail,

and, yes, I know

that you are with me;

you, my moon, are here with me,

my sun, you are here with me

with me, with me, with me.



Time to say goodbye. -- I'll go with you

to countries I never

saw and shared with you,

now, yes, I shall experience them.

I'll go with you

on ships across seas

which, I know,

no, no, exist no longer,



Both

with you I shall experience them again.

I'll go with you

on ships across seas

which, I know,

no, no, exist no longer,

with you I shall experience them again.

I'll go with you.



You and me.

Time To Say Goodbye

Andrea Bocelli's 'Time To Say Goodbye' stands as a quintessential example of his ability to blend classical piano technique with operatic vocal prowess within a contemporary pop framework. The recording captures the emotional vulnerability characteristic of his discography, often featuring lush orchestral arrangements that elevate the song's narrative of parting. While the track lacks a specific album title in public records, it aligns with the broader romantic ballad tradition found in his work alongside hits like 'Vivo Per Lei' and 'Romanza'. The composition reflects the Italian influence central to his identity, utilizing melodic structures that resonate across the classical crossover genre. This piece exemplifies Bocelli's signature approach to interpreting timeless themes of love and loss, delivering a performance that prioritizes emotional resonance over technical complexity.
