Lettera [English translation]

I wanted to tell you what

I've never managed to tell

And I've kept closed in me

Too much time

But there is a love

Which I can not hide any more

because now I also need you.

I just wanted to tell you that

You are always my joy

That when you speak to her,

I get a mad jealousy

For everything you give to me

Even when you don't know it,

This is what I wanted to tell you.

When you are not here

I am always a bit lost

And then I notice that

I can not have a jolly without you any more

But when you are with me

Even a grey colour around us

Turns into the life you give to it.

How it is difficult

To say all this to you

That you don't speak ever about love

Neither to me

Maybe because you have a fear like me

For an answer which

You don't know yet what it will be.

I wanted to tell you something

I've never managed to tell

And I've kept closed in me

Too much time

But there is a love

Which I can not hide any more

because now I also need you.
