45RPM single sleeve
"Io Vivo" is an Italian translation of "I'm Ready", one of the first songs I wrote with Bryan back in 1978 (see comments for the Bryan Adams version of "I'm Ready").

Bryan's Italian vocal for "Io Vivo" was recorded over the instrumental track from his MTV "live" recording session.

"Io Vivo" was released as part of a 3-song single (or EP) which also included the "live" MTV English-language version of "I'm Ready".
Lyrics: Vorrei vederti anche un attimo
E senza parole, ti direi
Che sento qualcosa
Che ora sale su
Tutte le volte che ci sei.

Io vivo per amarti
Io vivo per averti
Io vivo ogni notte
Io vivo per averti
E muoio se vai via cos.

Voglio vederti questa notte ancora
Con i tuoi occhi, cosa fai
Liamore del sesso
Ei come un angelo
Che ogni notte viene qua.

Io vivo per amarti
Io vivo per averti
Baby, io vivo adesso
Io vivo in te
E muoio se vai via cos.

Io vivo per amarti
Io vivo per averti
Uh, io vivo ogni notte
Io vivo per averti

Baby, io vivo
Adesso
Io vivo in te
E muoio se (quando) vieni cos
