Andrea Bocelli, Matteo Bocelli - Fall On Me

As I watched the years of love shared flash before me... these here presented, and those of my own heart, tears of love and gratitude donned my cheeks... the flow of time, the flow of grace, the flow of the love and splendor of this presentation of, "Fall on Me." Indeed, father Andrea Bocelli, and son Matteo Bocelli, BRAVO!! Love it is…

And when I listen anew... the growing of each of my three sons was brought to the NOW in such soaring splendor... the language of the soul speaking love, time, and BEING. This known heart to heart. Thank YOU for bringing me to such a sacred place of gratitude. Yes, Andrea and Matteo.. you have each gifted me with your divine knowing and love.  

[Verse 1: Matteo Bocelli]
I thought sooner or later
The lights up above
Will come down in circles and guide me to love
But I don't know what’s right for me
I cannot see straight
I've been here too long and I don't want to wait for it
Fly like a cannonball, straight to my soul
Tear me to pieces
And make me feel whole
I’m willing to fight for it and carry this weight
But with every step
I keep questioning what it's true

[Chorus: Matteo Bocelli]
Fall on me
With open arms
Fall on me
From where you are
Fall on me
With all your light
With all your light
With all your light

[Verse 2: Andrea Bocelli]
Presto una luce ti illuminerà
Seguila sempre, guidarti saprà
Tu non arrenderti, attento a non perderti
E il tuo passato avrà senso per te
Vorrei che credessi in te stesso, ma sì
In ogni passo che muoverai qui
È un viaggio infinito
Sorriderò se
Nel tempo che fugge mi porti con te

English Translation Verse 2: Andrea Bocelli

Soon a light will illuminate you

Always follow her, guide you will know

You do not give up, be careful not to lose yourself

And your past will make sense to you

I would like you to believe in yourself, but yes

In every step you move here

It is an infinite journey

I will smile if

In the fleeing time you take me with you

[Chorus: Both]
Fall on me
Ascoltami
Fall on me
Abbracciami
Fall on me
Finché vorrai
Finché vorrai
Finché vorrai
Finché vorrai

[Bridge: Both]
I close my eyes
And I'm seeing you everywhere
I step outside
It's like I'm breathing you in the air
I can feel you're there

[Chorus: Both]
Fall on me
Ascoltami
Fall on me
Abbracciami
Fall on me
With all your light
With all your light
With all your light

A Father, A Son, "Fall on Me..."

The gift of life and days of grace

Love shared within heart's place

The tender, the tender touch of time

Be these of blessings known divine

A voice that sings the soul in praise

And by a son has lived devoted days.
