Che fantastica storia è la vita [English translation]

My name is Antonio and I’m a singer-songwriter

My father and mother wanted me to be a doctor

I defied the destiny with the first song

I left my friends, lost my love

And when I think that it’s all over

Just then begins the climb

What a fantastic story life is

My name is Laura and I am a graduate

After thousand job applications I'm an office-clerk now

And my father and mother, with one single pension

Raised Luca, my only love

Sometimes I think that it's all over

But that's just when the climb begins

What a fantastic story life is

What a fantastic story life is

And when you think that it’s all over

Just then begins the climb

What a fantastic story life is

They call me Jesus and I'm a fisherman

The sea and the fish already make me sick

On this Cross in summer nights I still hear the voice

Of my Father and my Mother

And when I think that it’s all over

Just then begins the climb

What a fantastic story life is

What a fantastic story life is

My name is Aisha, like in the song

I am seven hundred fifty other people

From this rock of good hope

I choose life, the only salvation

And when I think that it’s all over

Just then begins the climb

What a fantastic story life is

What a fantastic story life is
