[English]

The ships set sail

The beaches are burning

Selfies of girls in bathrooms loving each other

The night is young

Young old people

Talk to me about love because tomorrow I'll be in pieces

...

Meanwhile, I'm looking for the sea

A golden eagle

...

In a few hours, in a few hours

Under the sun, here under the sun

Of Riccione, of Riccione

I almost regret it

And I don't think about it anymore, and I don't think about it anymore

I slap, I slap

With the waves and with the wind, I take them

As if they were you

As if they were you

As if they were you, eh oh

...

The trains brake

The series begin

Videos of guys lost inside a phone

The night is young

Dream of me now

Talk to me about love because tomorrow I won't be the same

...

Meanwhile, I'm looking for the sea

A golden eagle

...

In a few hours, in a few hours

Under the sun, here under the sun

Of Riccione, of Riccione

I almost regret it

And I don't think about it anymore, and I don't think about it anymore

I slap, I slap

With the waves and with the wind, I take them

As if they were you

As if they were you

As if they were you

Under the sky, here under the sky

Of Berlin, of Berlin

I eat half a sandwich

And I lose you

I slap, I slap

With the asphalt and the concrete, I take them

As if they were you

As if they were you

As if they were you, eh oh

New feeling, new shoes, new house

New people downtown with the time machine

New restaurants, new friends for life

The championship starts and the stars light up again

The stars light up again

The stars light up again

...

Under the sun, here under the sun

Of Riccione, of Riccione

I regret it

And I don't think about it anymore, and I don't think about it anymore

I slap, I slap

With the waves and with the wind, I take them

As if they were you

As if they were you

As if they were you, eh oh

...

As if they were you

As if they were you

As if they were you, eh oh

...

[Italian]

Le navi salpano

Le spiagge bruciano

Selfie di ragazze dentro i bagni che si amano

La notte è giovane

Giovani vecchi

Parlami d'amore che domani sarò a pezzi

Intanto cerco il mare

Un'aquila reale

Tra poche ore, tra poche ore

Sotto il sole, qui sotto il sole

Di Riccione, di Riccione

Quasi quasi mi pento

E non ci penso più, e non ci penso più

Faccio a schiaffi, faccio a schiaffi

Con le onde e con il vento, le prendo

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te, eh oh

I treni frenano

Le serie iniziano

Video di ragazzi persi dentro ad un telefono

La notte è giovane

Sognami adesso

Parlami d'amore che domani non sarò lo stesso

Intanto cerco il mare

Un'aquila reale

Tra poche ore, tra poche ore

Sotto il sole, qui sotto il sole

Di Riccione, di Riccione

Quasi quasi mi pento

E non ci penso più, e non ci penso più

Faccio a schiaffi, faccio a schiaffi

Con le onde e con il vento, le prendo

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Sotto il cielo, qui sotto il cielo

Di Berlino, di Berlino

Mangio mezzo panino

E ti perdo

Faccio a schiaffi, faccio a schiaffi

Con l'asfalto e col cemento, le prendo

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te, eh oh

Nuovo sentimento, nuove scarpe, nuova casa

Nuova gente in centro con la macchina del tempo

Nuovi ristoranti, nuovi amici per la pelle

Parte il campionato e si riaccendono le stelle

Si riaccendono le stelle

Si riaccendono le stelle

Sotto il sole, qui sotto il sole

Di Riccione, di Riccione

Mi pento

E non ci penso più, e non ci penso più

Faccio a schiaffi, faccio a schiaffi

Con le onde e con il vento, le prendo

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te, eh oh

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te

Come se fossero te, eh oh
