About Ti Amo

"Ti amo" (pronounced [ti ˈaːmo]; Italian for "I love you") is a 1977 song recorded by Italian singer Umberto Tozzi from the album È nell'aria...ti amo. It achieved success at the time, becoming a hit in many European countries, including Sweden and Switzerland where it topped the charts. A Spanish version was released as "Te Amo", and had a good success in Spain and Latin America. Within the German-speaking countries a German version by Howard Carpendale also received a great success in 1977, peaking at number two in Germany and number ten in Austria. In 2002, the song was overdubbed as duet with singer Lena Ka under the title "Ti amo (rien que des mots)", with Italian and French lyrics. This version was a success in France and Belgium (Wallonia), reaching the top three. At the time, the original version was re-released and achieved a moderate success in France. As of August 2014, it is the 52nd best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 393,000 units sold. A French version of this song was recorded by Dalida in 1977. An English version was also recorded by Laura Branigan in 1984, which, most notably, was a hit in Australia (reaching #2). It should not be confused with the Gina G song of the same name from 1997. In 2011, Sergio Dalma took a Spanish-language version of the song to the Top 10 in Spain. more »

Ti amo, God how I love you so 
My heart just won't let go 
Day after day I'm still holdin' on 
Even though you're gone 

Ti amo, wasn't I good to you? 
I did all that I could do 
To make you want to be here with me 
I thought you loved me 

I can't believe you could just turn and leave 
why'did it so easily 
You pulled my world out from under me 
Look what you've done to me 

How could you end it this way 
After the love that we made? 
God how I wish you had stayed 
Can't you see that I just want you back? 

Ti amo, I never had a clue that I was losin' you 
You never once let me know you were lettin' me go 
Oh, I guess it was there in your eyes 
Guess it was there in your sighs 
Guess it was there in your lies 
I was blind then, couldn't face the end 

Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on 
Thought we had something strong 
You pulled my world out from under me 
Look what you've done to me 

How could you end it this way 
After the love that we made? 
God how I wish you had stayed 
Can't you see that I just want you back? 

Ti amo, God how I love you so 
My heart just won't let go 
Day after day I'm still holdin' on 
Even though you're gone 

Guess it was there in your eyes 
Guess it was there in your sighs 
Guess it was there in your lies 
I was blind then, couldn't face the end 

Ti amo, thought we'd go on and on 
Thought we had something strong 
You pulled my world out from under me 
Look what you've done to me 

How could you end it this way 
After the love that we made? 
God how I wish you had stayed 
Can't you see that I just want you back? 

Ti amo, wasn't I good to you? 
Did all that I could do 
To make you want to be here with me 
I thought you loved me 

I can't believe you could just turn and leave 
why'did it so easily 
You pulled my world out from under me 
Look what you've done to me 

Ti amo, God how I love you so 
My heart just won't let go 
Day after day I'm still holdin' on 
Even though you're gone ... [fade out]
