For example here another phrase, even if I start from the end, I have problem to understand because,
子守歌でも歌おうと思います (I don't understand how to translate that "と")

I don't understand if its:
子守歌で も歌おうと思います (comoriuta de)
子守歌でも歌おうと思います (demo)

子守歌でも歌おうと思います
but I think I'll sing a lullaby

子守歌でも歌おうと思います
I think I'll sing also with a lullaby


see also what's the thing confuse me?
Please help me in those other phrases, so that I can study also from my mistakes.

子守歌でも歌おうと思っている

子守歌 lullabye
でも even
歌おう shall sing
と [makes what precedes it what you are thinking]
思っている thinking

I'm thinking of singing even a lullabye. OR
I think I shall sing even a lullabye!

Maybe the person is thinking about what to sing for a voice recital, and he's saying he thinks he might even sing a lullabye!

This is a subtle thing that maybe I can't explain outside of English, and you might need Italian to understand. I can't explain in Italian.

Also, 子守歌 is komamoriuta.
