Lo sapevi prima tu [English translation]

You knew beforehand

What would come

You knew beforehand

What you had drawn

When I wasn't a name yet

When I wasn't a love yet

You knew beforehand

That you had created my heart

Amidst all these people

That you took me for what I am

You knew beforehand

That this blood is a good one

Take me in your arms

Take this necklace and this face

Caress me softly, softly

With a gesture of your hand

Like when I was a kid

And to be closer

I screamed

Only to make me look at you

You knew beforehand

My courage and my pain

That I wasn't spared of

In this life that was being lived

With no fear or barriers

Looking for things that are good

And you were first to believe

That you taught me to fly

You knew beforehand

That I was ready to dream

Take me in your arms

Take this necklace and this face

Caress me softly, softly

With a gesture of your hand

Like when I was a kid

And to be closer

I screamed

Only to make me look at you

If you change my gifts

I'll forgive you

Deep within, we're the same

Even if you say 'no'

I know that all with be alright

If we do it together

Because you take care

Of each of my fears

Take me in your arms

Take this necklace and this face

Caress them softly, softly

With a gesture of your hand

Like when I was a kid

And to be closer

I screamed

Only to make me look at you

Like when I was a kid

And to be closer

I sang

Only to make me look at you, at you

At you, at you

You knew beforehand

And now, look at me in your life

You knew beforehand

That you had conceived me
