Well, now then
Bene, adesso
Picture you upon my knee
Immagina te su ginocchio mio
Just tea for two and two for tea
Solo tè per due e due per tè
Just me for you and you for me alone
Solo io per te e tu per me da soli
Nobody near us to see us or hear us
Nessuno vicino a noi per vederci o sentirci
No friends or relations
Né amici né parenti
On weekend vacations
In vacanze del fine settimana
We won't have it known
Non lo faremo sapere
That we own a telephone, dear
Che possediamo un telefono, cara
Day will break and you will awake
Il giorno verrà e tu ti sveglierai
And start to bake a sugar cake
E inizia a preparare una torta di zucchero
For me to take for all the boys to see
Per me da portare per tutti i ragazzi da vedere
We will rise a family
Costruiremo una famiglia
A boy for you and a girl for me
Un ragazzo per te e una ragazza per me
Oh, can't you see how happy we would be?
Oh, non vedi quanto saremmo felici?
