| The first time I knew I’d blown it
|
| I said I was an actress (had somewhere big to go)
|
| I was lookin' for a dress, like the ones they make in Italy and France
|
| A bodice at the back so you can’t breathe but you sure can dance
|
| And I remember love
|
| And the power of the moment
|
| The shop girls bought every word
|
| They took down my address
|
| And they said
|
| «Che bella che sei, che bella che sei
|
| Quelli occhi verde coi capelli neri come la notte
|
| La Vera Bellezza»
|
| And when I was in Vegas
|
| I spent 7 grand in a streak of madness
|
| The colours of the season they
|
| Can make you feel brand new
|
| And I release my mind
|
| To the power of the moment
|
| Even if that moment is forking out at the counter
|
| Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
|
| Confidence might drown a girl
|
| But not until she’s made to bend
|
| Now I see you as you are
|
| Rare and precious
|
| Rare and precious
|
| Saying
|
| «I could buy myself something new
|
| I could buy myself something new, I could
|
| I could buy myself something new
|
| I could buy myself something new
|
| I could buy myself something new, I could
|
| I could buy myself something new
|
| I could buy myself something new, I could
|
| I could buy myself something new, I could…» |
