Romance is the kind of language family in which Italian is grouped.

Specifically, English is within the Germanic family. The two languages therefore are completely different. But the reason that they have words in common is that they both are influenced by the classical Latin language of the ancient Romans, because of the Roman culture being located in ancient Italy and because of transmission of Latin influences through the Norman French conquest of England in 1066 by William of Normandy (c. 1028 - September 9, 1087).
