Dolce Vita Lyrics
[Intro]
(Dolce Vita)
[Verse 1]
The sand on my skin like cinnamon
A breeze whispers through my hair
Nothin' on my mind except a cool drink
I close my eyes, I'm almost there
My heartbeat dances with the radio
I move my body to recline
Nowhere to go so I just take it slow
I've got that summer state of mind
[Chorus]
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita
Where the sun won't go down
And the air's forever sweeter
A taste of how it could be now (Dolce Vita)
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
I wasn't ready to belong (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Funny where a day can lead ya (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Now it's all I ever want (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
[Verse 2]
Like a phoenix from the ashes
My story's starting to appear
I'm not afraid to let it all go
Nobody knows me when I'm here
So I relax into the feeling
I find the freedom that I seek
I watch the waves on the horizon
Tomorrow's holding the same heat
[Chorus]
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah)
Where the sun won't go down (Oh-woah)
And the air's forever sweeter (Oh-woah)
A taste of how it could be now (Oh-woah)
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
I wasn't ready to belong (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Funny where a day can lead ya (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Now it's all I ever want, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah)
[Bridge]
Ta-ra-ta, ta-ra-ta
Ta-ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ra-ta, ta-ra-ta (Oh, oh)
Ta-ra-ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ra-ta, ta-ra-ta (Dolce Vita)
Ta-ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta
Ta-ra-ta, ta-ra-ta (Dolce Vita)
[Chorus]
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Where the sun won't go down (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
And the air's forever sweeter (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
A taste of how it could be now (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Dolce Vita, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
I wasn't ready to belong (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Funny where a day can lead ya (Oh-woah) (Dolce Vita)
Now it's all I ever want, Dolce Vita (Oh-woah)

What did Sophie Ellis-Bextor say about "Dolce Vita"?
‘Dolce Vita’ is inspired by the way you feel about yourself when you’re somewhere unfamiliar. You can reinvent yourself and no one knows your story. When I was writing it, I had this little subplot in my head of someone with a criminal past longing to flee and start again somewhere new! But it works...
