Anche per te [English translation]

For you that, even though it's still night, are already preparing your coffee,

that get dressed without looking in the mirror behind you,

that, then, step into a church and softly pray

and in the meantime you're thinking of a world, by now, so far away.

For you that, in the morning, go home because

in the streets no one feels cold anymore and is no longer looking for you.

For you that place the money beside him as he sleeps,

and still add a bit of love to one that doesn't know what to do with it.

Even for you, I'd like to die and to die I don't know how.

Even for you I'd give something I don't have.

And therefore, and therefore, and therefore

I remain here

to give her my thoughts,

to give her what that yesterday

I'd have entrusted to the wind trying to reach the one who,

to the wind would have said: yes.

For you that, in the morning, wake your son and then,

you dress him and you accompany him to school and then you go to work.

For you that a mistake has cost you so much,

that tremble while looking at a man and live of regrets.

Even for you, I'd like to die and to die I don't know how.

Even for you I'd give something I don't have.

And therefore, and therefore, and therefore

I remain here

to give her my thoughts,

to give her what that yesterday

I'd have entrusted to the wind trying to reach the one who

to the wind would have said: yes.
