My lies are always wishes

Questions to consider:
1.Why did I want to come to Italy in the first place?
2.Why did I want to learn Italian in the first place?
3.How can I continue learning Italian?
4.Do I want to continue learning Italian?
5.Why would I want to continue learning Italian?
6.What's the point of learning Italian?

Sometimes people ask me why I am studying Italian. I can't even answer that question in english, much less in Italian, so I usually just say “I love Italy.” While that statement is mostly true, it doesn't answer the question. When speaking in Italian, I lie on a regular basis just so that I have something to say.


ps. Name the song I quoted in the subject line and maybe I'll bring you something special.
