Come le altre [English translation]

You, with your pale hands,

look like a distant dream

but you are like the others.

You, you know how to speak the words

that I would like to hear you say,

but you are like the others.

You, when for the first time

you looked at me and smiled,

you seemed like a dream to me—

but then, getting to know you, I saw

you slip between my fingers

and think only of yourself

just like the others

who no longer exist for me

because I see now only you.

You seemed like a dream to me—

but then, getting to know you, I saw

you slip between my fingers

and think only of yourself

just like the others

who no longer exist for me

because I see now only you.
