Alano Lario - Bound to the Ground, So Close to the Sky Lyrics

On a hill above Como, in the soft evening glow
Stood Villa Cardano, where no one would go
The owners grew old, left it all behind
The roof leaked with rain, wild garden entwined
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Villa Cardano, where memories lie
From whispers of past, to laughter so high
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
One day came a man with a heart full of dreams
He saw through the ruins, the hidden beams
He bought the old house, cleared the wild space
Found a grotto below, a secretive place
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Villa Cardano, where memories lie
From whispers of past, to laughter so high
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Architects and craftsmen, with hands skilled and true
Restored every corner, each brick, and the view
The villa now shines, a beacon so bright
Drawing people from afar, to this magical site
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Villa Cardano, where memories lie
From whispers of past, to laughter so high
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Now life fills the halls, with joy and delight
Children's laughter echoes, from morning till night
Villa Cardano reborn, with its timeless grace
A wondrous haven, in this beautiful place
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
Villa Cardano, where memories lie
From whispers of past, to laughter so high
Bound to the ground, so close to the sky
