Meglio stasera Baby go go go Or as we natives say "Fa subito!" If you're ever gonna kiss me It had better be tonight While the mandolins are playing And stars are bright If you've anything to tell me It had better be tonight Or somebody else may tell me And whisper the words just right Meglio stasera Baby go go go Or as we natives say "Fa subito!" If you're ever gonna hold me It had better be tonight Or somebody else may hold me They might make me feel just right For this poor Americano Who knows little of your speech Be a nice Italiano And start to teach Show me how in old Milano Lovers hold each other, oh, so tight But I warn you sweet paesana That it had better be tonight Meglio stasera Baby go go go Or as we natives say "Fa subito!"
