Io ti aspetto [English translation]

I will entrust

my words to the sea of time

that consumes them a little bit.

I might fall

but always and anyway

I will rise up.

You don't know

anything more than us.

You have never understood me,

that I've been here.

I feel you close always

even now when you're not here.

You don't have anything more than us.

You give me a feeling of absence and you don't know it,

that the eyes get used to everything

and that the feet are lifted in flight.

I wait for you and in the meantime I live,

as long as the heart lives alone

this sky isn't light.

I will entrust

these words to a book that's been already written

and which I will reread.

I live like this

With dreams folded in a suitcase,

mixed up with the scene clothes.

You don't have anything more than us.

You give ma a feeling of absence and you don't know it,

that the eyes get used to everything

and that the feet are lifted in flight.

I wait for you and in the meantime I live,

as long as the heart lives alone

this sky isn't light.

Streets that really unite

can later become a thread.

Without you I am what I was.

I am alone under a flood of stars,

to each one of them I'm going to give a new name.

I'm trying to find my best smile.

You know that I've already been here for some time.

I wait for you and in the meantime I live

as long as the heart lives alone

this sky isn't light.

Streets that really unite

can later become a thread.

Without you I am what I was.

I wait for you and in the meantime I live

as long as the heart is not alone anymore

this sky is so light.
