When I was a child living in our tiny apartment Under the stars with the people and animals and in the dust The power would crack out and things would stop whirring And Papa would bring in Andrea Boccelli the angel that soothes my every fear To this day l'ultimo re is a comfort just as it was in the stifling heat when all my senses were shut down He filled my ears with beauty and I didn't need to see anything in the dark Because my ears saw light dancing through my head I treasure this in my heart Like a much needed embrace Or the perfect words It's just what I have always needed To remind me I come from the dust and the stars

Tribute to Opera of my Childhood
When I was a child living in our tiny apartment Under the stars with the people and animals and in the dust The power would crack out and things would stop whirring And Papa would bring in Andrea Boccelli the angel that soothes my every fear To this day l'ultimo re is a comfort just as it was in the stifling heat when all my senses were shut down He filled my ears with beauty and I didn't need to see anything in the dark Because my ears saw light dancing through my head I treasure this in my heart Like a much needed embrace Or the perfect words It's just what I have always needed To remind me I come from the dust and the stars
