Io che non ho mai avuto una donna per un po' 00:06
Ho sempre tenuto le relazioni distanti 00:12
Vogliono tutte prender qualcosa che non ho 00:18
Non ci si lega alle persone quando si è grandi 00:24
Dopo arrivi tu, ehi, nei tuoi occhi blu, ehi 00:30
Trovo la paura che ho di innamorarmi 00:33
Tiro su una nube fatta dalle scuse 00:36
Che mi invento solo per non avvicinarmi 00:39
Sotto il tuo portone tu m'hai chiesto se ci sto 00:42
A salire ed era solo il primo appuntamento 00:45
Nello stesso punto dopo mesi io ti do 00:48
Dispiaceri e tu mi stai mandando via dicendo 00:51
"Non mi fare mai più del male 00:57
Ora non voglio più parlare 01:04
Perché non so restare ferma a guardare 01:08
Te che scendi giù dalle scale e te ne vai" 01:16
In un monolocale sui Navigli in quaranta metri 01:20
Mi hai chiesto, "Credi all'amore?" o se avessi dei desideri 01:23
Che pensassi del futuro e se avessi amici veri 01:26
Eri ubriaca, ma riempivi entrambi i nostri pensieri 01:29
Se ti muovi c'hai qualcosa come nessuna tipa 01:32
E io ho delle verità che non vuoi che ti dica 01:35
Se tornassi indietro, sai che non ti avrei mai ferita 01:38
Avrei comprato degli anelli per riempirti le dita 01:41
Poi lo facevamo forte, in piedi sulle porte 01:44
Dici, "Non ti fermare" 01:47
Però io guardo le altre e so che d'altra parte 01:50
Non lo puoi perdonare 01:53
Sotto il tuo portone tu m'hai chiesto se ci sto 01:56
A salire ed era solo il primo appuntamento 01:59
Nello stesso punto dopo mesi io ti do 02:02
Dispiaceri e tu mi stai mandando via dicendo 02:05
"Non mi fare mai più del male 02:11
Ora non voglio più parlare 02:18
Perché non so restare ferma a guardare 02:22
Te che scendi giù dalle scale e te ne vai" 02:30
"Non mi fare mai più del male 02:34
Ora non voglio più parlare 02:42
Perché non so restare ferma a guardare 02:45
Te che scendi giù dalle scale e te ne vai" 02:54

[English]
I who have never had a woman for a while
I have always kept relationships at a distance
They all want to take something I don't have
You don't get attached to people when you're grown
Then you arrive, hey, in your blue eyes, hey
I find the fear I have of falling in love
I pull up a cloud made of excuses
That I make up just to avoid getting close
Under your doorway, you asked me if I'm in
To go up and it was just the first date
In the same spot after months I give you
Heartaches and you're sending me away saying
"Never hurt me again
Now I don't want to talk anymore
Because I can't just stand still and watch
You going down the stairs and leaving"
In a studio apartment on the Navigli in forty square meters
You asked me, "Do you believe in love?" or if I had any wishes
What I thought about the future and if I had true friends
You were drunk, but you filled both our thoughts
If you move, you have something like no other girl
And I have truths that you don't want me to say
If I could go back, you know I would never hurt you
I would have bought rings to fill your fingers
Then we would do it hard, standing on the doors
You say, "Don't stop"
But I look at others and I know that on the other side
You can't forgive it
Under your doorway, you asked me if I'm in
To go up and it was just the first date
In the same spot after months I give you
Heartaches and you're sending me away saying
"Never hurt me again
Now I don't want to talk anymore
Because I can't just stand still and watch
You going down the stairs and leaving"
"Never hurt me again
Now I don't want to talk anymore
Because I can't just stand still and watch
You going down the stairs and leaving"
