Innamorarsi alla mia età [English translation]

What a pain it is falling in love at my age

because you are the sea and I'm the sky

and we will not meet.

I ask myself what will be of my life,

because I have changed, because I'm an instrument

of your feelings.

When I think of having you a bit for me,

you go running away, what are you looking for,

you go far.

So every time you come back here to me

you always find me sad and disconsolate

but in love.

What a pain it is falling in love at my age!

How do you enjoy yourself?

this inert man

chasing a dream;

now it is more evident

if I keep you in mind

that I need you.

With a bitter mouth

I should tell you: 'Dear,

I love only you'.

What a pain it is falling in love at my age!

I had breath

now I've broken out

and I have the signs.

I'm not the rock

who's not afraid of shock;

I'm flesh and bone ...

And who knows tomorrow

I will say it

at this price no.
