Con te Partirò

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Con te Partirò is an Italian song by Francesco Sartori (music) and Lucio Quarantotto (lyrics). It was first sung by Andrea Bocelli at the 1995 San Remo Festival and recorded on his album Romanza. The song achieved wide success, and a second version sung partly in English paired Bocelli with soprano Sarah Brightman, released as Time To Say Goodbye. A Spanish version, which has significantly modified lyrics, known as Por ti Volaré was also released.
