My Day With Enzo
I was drinking Schweppes
on the Spanish steps
When this fella said "Ciao bella!"
I was warned back when, be careful of Italian men
But I was alone, and when in Rome...
My day with Enzo.
Oh oh oh oh oh
My day with Enzo in Rome.
We drank some wine
on the Palatine.
He picked me a daisy as we strolled through Villa Borghese.
And then I thought, Mamma Mia! He's getting the wrong idea!
Because in Gucci, Enzo tried to smooch me!
He said "Amore!
nell mio cuore!
Signorina, la piu bella donna sei tu."
He said "Love is in my heart.
Signorina, the most beautiful woman is you."
I said "Enzo, we're
just friends, oh
Don't start that again, come on let's go see the Vatican --"
He said. "Here's what we do. I buy you a tiramisu
And after we eat-a, I show you la dolce vita."
He said "Amore!
nell mio cuore!
Signorina, la piu bella donna sei tu."
He brought me home,
back to my pensione.
We rode on his Vespa, as the sun set in the West, ah.
Where did our day go? I said "Thank you." He said "Prego."
As he drove away, I heard him say,
He said "Amore!
nell mio cuore!
Signorina, la piu bella donna sei tu."
My day with Enzo, Oh oh oh oh oh oh
My day with Enzo in Rome.
