Lyrics:

[Italiano]

[English]

Cara, cosa mi succede stasera, ti guardo ed è come la prima volta

Darling, what's happening to me tonight? I look at you and it's like the first time.

Che cosa sei, che cosa sei, che cosa sei

What are you? What are you? What are you?

Non vorrei parlare

I wouldn't want to talk.

Cosa sei

What are you?

Ma tu sei la frase d'amore cominciata e mai finita

But you are the phrase of love begun and never finished.

Non cambi mai, non cambi mai, non cambi mai

You never change, you never change, you never change.

Tu sei il mio ieri, il mio oggi

You are my yesterday, my today.

Proprio mai

Never.

È il mio sempre, inquietudine

You are my always, restlessness.

Adesso ormai ci puoi provare

Now you can try.

chiamami tormento dai, già che ci sei

Call me torment, come on, since you're at it.

Tu sei come il vento che porta i violini e le rose

You are like the wind that brings violins and roses.

Caramelle non ne voglio più

I don't want candies anymore.

Certe volte non ti capisco

Sometimes I don't understand you.

Le rose e violini

Roses and violins.

questa sera raccontali a un'altra,

Tell them to someone else tonight.

violini e rose li posso sentire

Violins and roses I can hear them.

quando la cosa mi va se mi va,

When I feel like it, if I feel like it.

quando è il momento e dopo si vedrà

When the time is right and we'll see after.

Una parola ancora

One more word.

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Ascoltami

Listen to me.

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Ti prego

Please.

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Io ti giuro

I swear to you.

Parole, parole, parole, parole parole soltanto parole, parole tra noi

Words, words, words, words, words, only words, words between us.

Ecco il mio destino, parlarti, parlarti come la prima volta

Here is my destiny, to talk to you, to talk to you like the first time.

Che cosa sei, che cosa sei, che cosa sei,

What are you? What are you? What are you?

No, non dire nulla, c'è la notte che parla

No, don't say anything, the night is talking.

Cosa sei

What are you?

La romantica notte

The romantic night.

Non cambi mai, non cambi mai, non cambi mai

You never change, you never change, you never change.

Tu sei il mio sogno proibito

You are my forbidden dream.

Proprio mai

Never.

È vero, speranza

It's true, hope.

Nessuno più ti può fermare

No one can stop you anymore.

chiamami passione dai, hai visto mai

Call me passion, come on, have you ever seen.

i spegne nei tuoi occhi la luna e si accendono i grilli

The moon goes out in your eyes and the crickets light up.

Caramelle non ne voglio più

I don't want candies anymore.

Se tu non ci fossi bisognerebbe inventarti

If you didn't exist, you would have to be invented.

La luna ed i grilli

The moon and the crickets.

normalmente mi tengono sveglia

Normally they keep me awake.

mentre io voglio dormire e sognare

While I want to sleep and dream.

l'uomo che a volte c'è in te quando c'è

Of the man who sometimes is in you when he is.

che parla meno

Who speaks less.

ma può piacere a me

But may please me.

Una parola ancora

One more word.

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Ascoltami

Listen to me.

arole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Ti prego

Please.

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.

Io ti giuro

I swear to you.

Parole, parole, parole, parole parole soltanto parole, parole tra noi

Words, words, words, words, words, only words, words between us.

Che cosa sei

What are you?

Parole, parole, parole

Words, words, words.
