Se avessi tempo [English translation]

If I had the time, I'd walk

All over your asleep body

And I'd wet your back with rain drops

Which I'll dry with the coldness of the evening

If I had the time, I'd give you

My latest pain

Which, now resigned, no longer hurts

It's a caress that makes no noise

And I'd find the strength to wake up

People asleep in their homes

And I'd find the strength to break

This room of mine where everything makes silence

If I had the time, I'd save you

From the blasphemies of life

If I had the time, I'd hold you

Till I broke you among my fingers

If I had the time, I'd amaze you

All the times I walk

Among your white hands I'd look

For the fresh wind of the morning

If I had the time, I'd talk to you

Like I did when I was a child

Lost in your beautiful, huge eyes

Sat by yourself on a step

I'd like to have huge arms

To embrace all that you are

I'd like to see your real life

Among all those that you unfortunately have

And I'd find the strength to scream

Unafraid of waking you up

And I'd find the strength to escape

Unafraid of leaving you

If I had the time, I'd smother you

In the light of a star

If I had the time, I'd maybe write

A song, the most beautiful one
