[English]

I'll write about loving you on the notes of an iPhone

I stare at the wall, I won't even call you tonight

It's not worth it, it's August but it's freezing

Even if it's useless

I've tried to call you

But afraid of making a mistake

You answer, you tangle me up

I don't want that stuff

Can you imagine, I was dying for you

I don't know if you for me

What's clear

Is that it didn't work out for us

Before you I was alone, I was mine, it was all easier

Now in this madness I have learned to dance

A hundred days without meeting again

I didn't think I would miss you so much

I'll write about loving you on the notes of an iPhone

I stare at the wall, I won't even call you tonight

It's not worth it, it's August but it's freezing

Even if it's useless

Saying yes in a whisper, saying yes in a whisper

Saying yes in a whisper, tonight only

Saying yes in a whisper, saying yes in a whisper

You barely touch me, you're a shiver on my back

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

On my back

Looking at the wall

Thinking about calling you

You answer, you tangle me up

I don't want that stuff, you bring me down

Sometimes I think yes

Then I tell myself no

I can't call you even if I want you

Before you I was alone, I was mine, it was all easier

Now in this madness I have learned to dance

Gypsy is the night to search for each other

You're a cyclone looking for my steps

I'll write about loving you on the notes of an iPhone

I stare at the wall, I won't even call you tonight

It's not worth it, it's August but it's freezing

Even if it's useless

Saying yes in a whisper, saying yes in a whisper

You barely touch me, you're a shiver on my back

...

On my back

...

On my back

...

On my back

...

[Italian]

Scriverò di amarti sulle note di un iPhone

Fisso la parete, tanto non ti chiamerò neanche stasera

Non vale la pena, è agosto ma si gela

Anche se non serve a niente

Yo he intentado llamarte

Pero con miedo a equivocarme

Contestas, me enredas

No quiero esa vaina

Te imaginas, yo moría por ti

No se si tú por mi

Lo que queda claro

Es que no nos funcionó

Prima di te ero sola, ero mia, era tutto più facile

Ora in questa follia ho imparato a danzare

Cento giorni senza rincontrarsi

Non credevo che poi mi mancassi

Scriverò di amarti sulle note di un iPhone

Fisso la parete, tanto non ti chiamerò neanche stasera

Non vale la pena, è agosto ma si gela

Anche se non serve a niente

Sottovoce dirti sì, sottovoce dirti sì

Sottovoce dirti sì, stanotte solamente

Sottovoce dirti sì, sottovoce dirti sì

Mi sfiori appena, sei un brivido sulla mia schiena

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Sulla mia schiena

Mirando hacia la pared

Pensando en llamarte

Contestas, me enredas

No quiero esa vaina, tú me restas

A veces pienso que sí

Después me digo no

No te puedo llamar aunque quiera de ti

Prima di te ero sola, ero mia, era tutto più facile

Ora in questa follia ho imparato a danzare

Zingara è la notte per cercarsi

Sei un ciclone in cerca dei miei passi

Scriverò di amarti sulle note di un iPhone

Fisso la parete, tanto non ti chiamerò neanche stasera

Non vale la pena, è agosto ma si gela

Anche se non serve a niente

Sottovoce dirti sì, sottovoce dirti sì

Mi sfiori appena, sei un brivido sulla mia schiena

Sulla mia schiena

Sulla mia schiena

Sulla mia schiena
