Giorgio Gaber — Parole Parole song lyrics and translation

The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Parole Parole" by Giorgio Gaber.

Lyrics

Gente che parla
Gente che ride
e che non dice quello che pensa
Gente che parla
e che ridete
solo parole e niente di piu'
Parole, Parole parole
gridate nel vento e nel sole
promesse non piu' mantenute
speranze andate perdute
Parole,
che son come fiori
ma finti e senza profumo
Parole
e chi mondo mi resta
in questa mia povera testa
Lasciatemi stare
in un posto da solo
che possa cantare
che possa sognare
Sentir la chitarra
che piange e che ride
e con le sue corde
mi ritma la vita
Parole, parole parole
gridate nel vento e nel sole
disegni di fumo nell’aria
discorsi imparati a memoria
Parole dipinte sui muri
in bianco in nero e a colori
parole e che mondo mi resta
in questa mia povera testa

Lyrics translation

People talking
People laughing
and who doesn't say what he thinks
People talking
and that you laugh
just words and nothing more.
Words, words words
shout in the wind and in the sun
promises no longer kept
hopes lost
Word,
that are like flowers
but fake and without perfume
Word
and who World I have left
in this poor head of mine
Leave me alone
in a place alone
May I sing
that I can dream
Feel the guitar
crying and laughing
and with its ropes
it beats my life
Words, words words
shout in the wind and in the sun
drawings of smoke in the air
memorized speeches
Words painted on the walls
black and white in color
words and what a world I have left
in this poor head of mine
