Up a lazy river by the old mill stream
Su un fiume pigro vicino al vecchio mulino
That lazy, hazy river where we both can dream
Quella dolce, annebbiata corrente dove sogniamo entrambi
Linger in the shade of an old oak tree
Resta all'ombra di un vecchio quercia
Throw away your troubles, dream a dream with me
Scaccia via i tuoi problemi, sogna un sogno con me
Up a lazy river where the robin's song
Su un fiume pigro dove canta il pettirosso
Wakes up in the mornin', as we roll along
Si sveglia al mattino, mentre noi continuiamo
Blue skies up above ...everyone's in love
Cieli blu sopra ... tutti sono innamorati
Up a lazy river, how happy we will be
Su un fiume pigro, quanto saremo felici
Up a lazy river, how happy we will be
Su un fiume pigro, quanto saremo felici
Up a lazy river with me
Su un fiume pigro con me
Linger in the shade of an old oak tree
Stay in the shade of an ancient oak tree
Throw away your troubles, dream a dream with me
Cast aside your worries, dream a dream with me
Up a lazy river where the robin's song
On a gentle river where the robin sings
Wakes up in the mornin', as we roll along
Awakens in the morning, as we drift along
Blue skies up above ...everyone's in love
Blue skies up high... everyone is in love
Up a lazy river, how happy we will be
On a gentle river, how joyful we will be
Up a lazy river, how happy we will be
On a gentle river, how joyful we will be
Up a lazy river with me
On a gentle river with me
