Don't ever forget me

If you were here with me tonight
I would be happy, and you know that.
The moon would feel better as well:
now it's smaller than ever.
I would even do without longing
which comes back from far
to take away from me
a wake of our love
which will be then cancelled by time
and nothing will survive.
 
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget what I used to do,
after all we've been together
and it's not a small detail.
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget the most wonderful fairy tale
I've ever written,
a happy ending was forecast and much appreciated.
 
Maybe it was also my fault
to believe it was all eternal.
Sometimes everything fades,
and without notice, it disappears.
 
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget what I used to do,
after all we've been together
and it's not a small detail.
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget the most wonderful fairy tale
I've ever written,
a happy ending was forecast and much appreciated.
 
Uhhh...Don't ever forget...
Uhhh...Don't ever forget...
 
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget what I used to do,
after all we've been together
and it's not a small detail.
Don't ever forget me,
don't forget the most wonderful fairy tale
I've ever written,
a happy ending was forecast and much appreciated.

Thank you Sooo much! I have always loved this song! I have done haphazard translations with a dictionary, but have never been satisfied. Thanks again!

Studying Italian songtexts is nice way of learning the language by heart.

Translations like this one make it happen. The songtext are quite difficult so excellent language puzzles. Never boring.

You can also practice pronouncation and check in a niceway if it's correct by listening to the song.
