Lyrics and translation Sarah Vaughan - It Had Better Be Tonight

It Had Better Be Tonight

If you're ever gonna kiss me
It had better be tonight
While the mandolins are playing
And stars are bright
If you've anything to tell me
It had better be tonight
Or somebody else may tell me
And whisper the words just right
Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go!
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"
Show me how in old Milano
Lovers hold each other tight
But I warn you sweet paisano
It had better be tonight
Or as we natives say, "Fa subito!"

Ce soir ou jamais

Si tu veux m'embrasser
Fais-le ce soir ou jamais
Pendant que les mandolines jouent
Et que les étoiles brillent
Si tu as quelque chose à me dire
Dis-le moi ce soir ou jamais
Sinon quelqu'un d'autre me le dira
Et murmure les mots juste comme il faut
Meglio stasera, baby, go, go, go!
Ou comme on dit chez nous, "Fa subito!"
Montre-moi comment à Milan
Les amants se tiennent serrés
Mais je te préviens, mon cher ami
Ce soir ou jamais
Ou comme on dit chez nous, "Fa subito!"
