[English]
Maybe it won't be a song
that changes the rules of the game
but I want to live it this way, this adventure
without borders and with my heart in my throat
And the world spinning in a carousel of colors
and the wind caressing the flags
A shiver comes and carries you away
and you melt into an embrace, madness
Magic nights
chasing a goal
beneath the sky
of an Italian summer
And in your eyes
a desire to win
a summer
an adventure more
That dream that starts in childhood
and takes you ever farther away
It's not a fairy tale, and from the locker rooms
the girls come out, and so do we
Magic nights
chasing a goal
beneath the sky
of an Italian summer
And in your eyes
a desire to win
a summer
an adventure more
Magic nights
chasing a goal
beneath the sky
of an Italian summer
And in your eyes
a desire to win
a summer
an adventure more
an adventure
an adventure more
an adventure
Goal!
