about

Andrea Ramolo's first original composition in Italian written, played, and produced in quarantine as a love letter for Italy during this global pandemic. UNA LETTERA ('A Letter') is a love letter to a country that Andrea holds dear to her heart and loves like her own... the country both of her parents were born in. It is her battle-cry over seas... a song to let family and friends there know that she stands beside them and that love will get us through this hard time. The majority of proceeds from sales will be donated to the Italy Covid-19 Response Appeal to provide some relief to hospitals and front-line workers during this time. Donate today.

lyrics

UNA LETTERA
Sto pensando a voi, senza l’aria, senza la libertà
E tra di noi, c’e il mare fatto di una lacrima
Che condividiamo, come la melodia che cresce pian piano.
In questa guerra inaspettata,
Solo fantasmi stanno sulle strade vacanti.
I nostri scompaiono…
Senza un saluto, o una preghiera, un bacio d’addio.
Almeno d’addio.

Abbiamo dato per scontate notti stellate….

Migliorerà e passerà.
Tramonto…. alba!
L’amore puo salvarci.
Ricorderemo ciascun’estate
Il sole sulla sabbia
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….

Sto pensando a noi, la nostra forza e la volontà
Di fare un passo in dietro per andare avanti
Per semplificare, per mostrare al mondo come possiamo amare
Come possiamo amare…

Abbiamo dato per scontate notti stellate….

Migliorerà e passerà.
Tramonto…. alba!
L’amore puo salvarci.
Ricorderemo ciascun’estate
Il sole sulla sabbia
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….

Questa volta noi dobbiamo cambiare

Migliorerà e passerà.
Tramonto…. alba!
L’amore puo salvarci.
Ricorderemo ciascun’estate
Il sole sulla sabbia
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….
L’amore puo, l’amore puo, l’amore può salvarci….

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

A LETTER
I am thinking of you, without air, without freedom
And there is this sea between us, made from a tear
That we share, like this melody that grows slow…
slowly.
In this unexpected war
Only ghosts trail the vacant roads.
Our loved ones disappear
Without a so-long, without a prayer, or a goodbye kiss
At least a goodbye.

We took for granted those starry nights….

It will get better, it will pass.
Sunset… sunrise.
Love can save us.
We will remember every summer
Where the sun hit the sand.
Love can, love can, love can save us.

I am thinking of us, of our strength and will
To take a step back so that we can move forward.
To simplify, to show the world just how we can love.
Come we are able to love…

We took for granted those starry nights….

It will get better, it will pass.
Sunset… sunrise.
Love can save us.
We will remember every summer
Where the sun hit the sand.
Love can, love can, love can save us.

This time we need to make a change

It will get better, it will pass.
Sunset… sunrise.
Love can save us.
We will remember every summer
Where the sun hit the sand.
Love can, love can, love can save us.
Love can, love can, love can save us.
Love can, love can, love can save us.
Love can, love can, love can save us.
