Ho capito che ti amo [English translation]

I've understood I loved you

when I saw that was enough

your being late

in order to feel my indiffernce vanish

because I was afraid

you didn't come anymore

I've understood I loved you

when I saw that it was enough

one phrase of yours

to make a night

an ordinary night

begin as if for magic

to light up

And when I think that

a while ago

talking with someone

I said

that from now on

I would never believe in love again

and deceive myself and dream

And then

I understood I love you

and it was already too late

to go back

I've searched the indifference in me for a while

but then I gave myself

to love.
