About Bambina

Another track off "Father of the Bride" that covers religion, the upbeat “Bambina” describes an old chant that translates to 'bye, bye, baby'. It is also Italian for 'little girl', and can mean 'babe' when used as slang. .

Bambina Lyrics

[00:06.30] No time to discuss it
[00:09.62] Can't speak when the waves
[00:11.53] Reach our house upon the dunes
[00:13.14] Time cannot be trusted
[00:15.54] When the police come
[00:17.12] They always come too soon
[00:19.66] Life felt like heaven today
[00:22.08] Like a foreign car though
[00:23.96] We are american-made
[00:25.99] I thought I'd probably stay
[00:28.37] But before I know, I know
[00:31.95] My Christian heart
[00:33.68] Cannot withstand
[00:35.44] The thundering arena
[00:39.22] I'll see you when
[00:40.92] The violence ends
[00:42.68] For now, ciao, ciao
[00:44.17] Bambina
[00:46.74] No signs of injustice
[00:49.96] No signs but the flames that are filling up the room
[00:52.95] Fire cannot be trusted
[00:55.54] When the engines come, they always come too soon
[01:00.60]
[01:11.80] My Christian heart
[01:13.66] Cannot withstand
[01:15.52] The thundering arena
[01:18.87] I'll see you when
[01:20.63] The violence ends
[01:22.58] For now, ciao, ciao
[01:23.91] Bambina
[01:26.04] My Christian heart
[01:27.72] Cannot withstand
[01:29.41] The thundering arena
[01:32.66] I'll see you when
[01:34.16] The violence ends
[01:35.75] For now, ciao, ciao
[01:37.11] Bambina
[01:40.17] Uh, to an extent, yeah
[01:42.42]
