Lyrics

La vedevo tutti i giorni andando a scuola
non sono mai riuscito a dirle una parola
la guardavo camminare da lontano
con i suoi capelli biondi ed i libri in mano
Non ricordo neanche piùche faccia aveva
ma l’odore della nebbia di mattina
quando mi vestivo in fretta per far prima
e fingere di essere lìper caso quando usciva
ChissàKatia
Chissàadesso Katia cosa fa Oh Katia
Il mio primo amore tanto tempo fa Io cercavo di attirare la sua attenzione
ma ero un bambino goffo e non sapevo come
e poi c’era un tipo che si chiamava Sansone di cognome
che aveva gli occhi verdi e giocava da Dio a pallone
aveva gli occhi verdi e la pelle scura
e la faccia di uno che non ha avuto mai paura
che giocava ancora meglio se sapeva che lei guardava
e le brillava lo sguardo quando gli sorrideva
ChissàKatia
Chissàadesso Katia cosa fa Oh Katia
Il mio primo amore tanto tempo fa Chissàadesso tu come sarai
se ti sei sposata e quanti figli hai
se sarai felice e ti ci riconoscerai
se ti brilleranno gli occhi e se sorriderai
pensando a quel ragazzo
che non ti ha parlato mai
ChissàKatia
Chissàadesso Katia cosa fa Oh Katia
Forse adesso Katia capirà

Lyrics translation

I saw her every day going to school
I've never been able to say a word to her.
I watched her walk from afar
with her blonde hair and books in hand
I don't even remember what face he had.
but the smell of the morning fog
when I dressed in a hurry to make it first
and pretend to be there by chance when he went out
ChissàKatia
Who knows what Katia does Oh Katia
My first love a long time ago I was trying to get his attention
but I was a clumsy child and I did not know how
and then there was a guy named Samson by his last name
who had green eyes and played God's ball
he had green eyes and dark skin
and the face of one who was never afraid
who played even better if he knew she was watching
and her eyes shone when she smiled at him
ChissàKatia
Who knows what Katia does Oh Katia
My first love a long time ago who knows what you'll be like
if you got married and how many children do you have
if you're happy and you recognize yourself
if your eyes shine and if you smile
thinking about that guy
who never spoke to you
ChissàKatia
Who knows what Katia does Oh Katia
Maybe now Katia will understand
