lyrics

(a ring drops on a metal scale)
Weigh it. All of it.

The pawn shop man said, bella, sure?
I said, I've never been so pure
Eighteen karats, zero love
It bought a window seat above
(sopra le nuvole)

You said no woman leaves you first
Amore, watch me do my worst
(guarda, guarda)

Arrivederci, baby
(ciao, ciao)
Arrivederci, baby
Palermo's calling, maybe
Arrivederci, baby
You loved me like a hobby
Arrivederci, baby
(ciao, ciao, ciao)

I'm thirty thousand feet from you
Spritz is orange, sky is blue
She saw the tan line, raised her glass
We toasted, classy, to your past
(salute!)

Nonna said, the sea, the sea
cures everything but jealousy
You stay jealous. I'll stay free.
(libera!)

Arrivederci, baby
(ciao, ciao)
Arrivederci, baby
Palermo's calling, maybe
Arrivederci, baby
You loved me like a hobby
Arrivederci, baby
(ciao, ciao, ciao)

You kept the flat, the friends, the fiction
I kept the voice. Hear the difference?
(oh-oh-oh... crescendo)

Arrivederci, baby
Arrivederci, baby
Arrivederci, baby
Arrivederci, baby
(ciao, ciao, ciaaao!)

This is your captain speaking.
We have landed.
(seatbelt clicks off)
Ciao.
