About Vivo Per Léi

"Vivo per lei" [ˈviːvo per ˈlɛi] (English: "I Live for Her") is a 1995 song recorded by Italian artist Andrea Bocelli as duet with Giorgia Todrani (under the stage name of "Giorgia" only) for his album Bocelli. The song was also released as a duet with other female artists, including Marta Sánchez in Spain and Spanish America, Hélène Ségara in francophone countries, Judy Weiss in German-speaking countries, Sandy in Brazilian Portuguese and Bonnie Tyler in English under the title "Live for Love", though due to record company disputes their version was never released. The version with Marta Sánchez topped the Spanish singles chart in 1996 under the title Vivo por ella and is available on her album One Step Closer. The version with Ségara was released in December 1997 and became a hit in Belgium (Wallonia) and France where it reached number one on the charts. It was the fifth single from Ségara's first studio album, Cœur de verre. The version with Judy Weiss was also number one in Switzerland in 1997.

Vivo per lei da quando sai 
La prima volta l'ho incontrata 
Non mi ricordo come ma 
Mi é entrata dentro e c'é restata 
Vivo per lei perché mi fa 
Vibrare forte l'anima 
Vivo per lei e non è un peso 

Je vis pour elle depuis toujours 
Qu'elle me déchire ou qu'elle soit tendre 
Elle nous dessine après l'amour 
Un arc-en-ciel dans notre chambre 
Elle est musique et certains jours 
Quand notre coeur se fait trop lourd 
Elle est la seule à pouvoir nous porter secours 

E' una musa che ci invita 
Elle vivra toujours en moi 
Attraverso un pianoforte la morte è 
Lontana io vivo per lei 

Je vis pour elle jour après jour 
Quand ses accords en moi se fondent 
C'est ma plus belle histoire d'amour 
E un pugno che non fa mai male 

Vivo per lei lo so mi fa 
Girare di città in città 
Soffrire un po ma almeno io vivo 

Je serais perdue sans elle 
Vivo per lei dentro gli hotels 
Je suis triste et je l'appelle 
Vivo per lei nel vortice 
Attraverso la mia voce 
Si espande e amore produce 

Vivo per lei nient'altro ho 
E quanti altri incontrerò 
Che come me hanno scritto in viso 
Io vivo per lei 
Io vivo per lei 

Sopra un palco o contro ad un muro 
Elle nous ressemble encore tu vois 
Anche in un domani duro 
J'existe encore je sais pourquoi 
Ogni giorno una conquista 
La protagonista sarà sempre lei 
Oh,Oh,Oh 

Vivo per lei perchè oramai 
Io non ha altra via d'uscita 
Perche la musica lo sai 
Davvero non l'ho mai tradita 

Elle est musique, elle a des ailes 
Elle m'a donné la clef du ciel 
Qui m'ouvre enfin les portes du soleil 
J'existe par elle 

Vivo per lei la musica 
J'existe pour elle 
Vivo per lei è unica lo vivo 
Elle est toi et moi 
Io vivo per lei 
Io vivo per lei
