It Had Better Be Tonight

If you're ever gonna kiss me

It had better be tonight

While the mandolins are playing

And stars are bright



If you've anything to tell me

It had better be tonight

Or somebody else may tell me

And whisper the words just right



Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go!

Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"



Show me how in old Milano

Lovers hold each other tight

But I warn you sweet paisano

It had better be tonight



Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"
