Donatella Rettore is an Italian singer and songwriter (born July 8, 1955 in Castelfranco Veneto, Province of Treviso). She started her career in 1973 and her early recordings was oriented to the popular and melodic Italian music. She became successful just in 1979, and for about five years she was the most popular and female best selling in Italy second only to Mina. Her most popular hits are: Splendido Splendente (Splendid Shining), Kobra, Donatella, Lamette (Razor Blades), This Time, Io Ho Te (I've Got You), Amore Stella (Love Star) e Di Notte Specialmente (Especially By Night). Most albums are a mixture of pop, rock, disco music and ska. After 1983 she started her slow decline, and she had to wait 1994 to enter once again in the top 10 Italian charts. Recently she released Stralunata, a double cd set & dvd about her career, her music and her TV performances, which entered directly to n. 2 and stayed in top 10 Italian dvd charts for two months.
Seems like a long time
since the days of you and i
i can't help feeling
something never really died
and if you feel
even half the love that i do
still feel for you
then we got what it takes
there'll be no more mistakes
this time
we have all the love that we need
we will succeed
this time
following our dreams where they lead
i believe we can try
with our hearts left behind
oh won't it be fine this time
i still remember
when we said our last goodbyes
life made us foolish
maybe the time will make us wise
and there's no way
we can lose the love
that we found this time around
now there's no room for grief
we can make it work out
this time
we have all the love that we need
we will succeed
this time
following our dreams where they lead
i believe we can try
with our hearts left behind
oh won't it be fine
this time
we have all the love that we need
we will succeed
this time
following our dreams where they lead
i believe we can try
with our hearts left behind
