Hello dear readers of Eurovision Ireland!
Today we continue with our exciting series: One Day Love!
Each week we celebrate one song from Eurovision History. Here, you can find facts like: year, country, artist, title of the song, lyrics (translations when the song is in another language other than English), video, points and placement in the semi-final, final or even national final (if the song only performed at that stage of the competition).
This week we have a special guest for our One Day Love, and it comes this time all the way from Switzerland. Io Senza Te (Me Without You) managed to get the most sets of 12 points in 1981 and came close to winning the whole contest.
Year: 1981
Country: Switzerland
Artist: Peter, Sue & Marc
Title: Io Senza Te
Lyrics:
Dopo la tempesta camminiamo un po’
Sulla sabbia pesta chiacchieriamo un po’
Ho sbagliato io, hai sbagliato tu
Quel che è stato è stato, non parliamone più
Io senza te, cosa farei?
Io non respiro se tu non ci sei
Io senza te, cosa sarei?
Una farfalla che non vola più
Prenderti nel vento come un anno fa
Stesso sentimento, stessa intensità
E trovar parole che non dissi mai
Mentre il sole muore sul mio cuore stai
Io senza te, cosa farei
Della mia vita e dei giorni miei?
Io senza te, come farei?
Amore mio, t’inventerei
Io senza te, cosa farei?
Io senza te, come farei?
Amore mio t’inventerei
Amore mio t’inventerei
English Lyrics
| Me without you |
| Fire, wind and water couldn’t frighten me |
| When I took the long road to my destiny |
| I was used to losing, now I’m bound to win |
| ‘Cause the day I found you made it all begin |
| Me without you, what would I own? |
| A dream of flying but wings made of stone |
| Me without you, oh… what would I do? |
| I’d take the long road right back to you |
| Never knew the answer to my world of dreams |
| Now the explanation lies in you, it seems |
| Living for tomorrow, far from yesterday |
| Ever since you told me: “Let me share your way” |
| Me without you, what would I own? |
| A dream of flying but wings made of stone |
| Me without you, oh… what would I do? |
| I’d take the long road right back to you |
| Me without you – what would I do? Oh… |
| Me without you, oh… what would I do? |
| I’d take the long road right back to you |
| I’d take the long road right back to you |
