Lucio Dalla — Un uomo come me song lyrics and translation

The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Un uomo come me" by Lucio Dalla.

Lyrics

Un uomo come me Se ha sete beve vino
Se ha fame chiede il pane al suo vicino
Un uomo come me Quando regala un fiore
Non? Un fiore comprato ma? Colto sotto al sole
Un uomo come me La casa dove? Nato
L’abita senza luna quando dorme sul prato
Un uomo come me Sorride e parla poco
Perch? Legge nei tuoi occhi e poi capisce il gioco
Un uomo come me Ha un buco dentro il cuore
Lo senti gridare ma non credi all’amore
A un uomo come me Quando ti dice addio
Tu dici arrivederci e pensi ancora a Dio
Un uomo come me Aspetta il tuo ritorno
Liberando nel vento una rondine al giorno
Un uomo come me Si allontana di sera
Credeva fosse inverno e muore a primavera
(Grazie a Germano per questo testo)

Lyrics translation

A man like me if he's thirsty he drinks wine
If he is hungry he asks his neighbor for bread
A man like me when he gives a flower
No? A flower bought but? Caught in the sun
A man like me the house where? Born
The moonless inhabits it when it sleeps on the meadow
A man like me smiles and speaks little
Perch? He reads in your eyes and then understands the game
A man like me has a hole in his heart
You hear him scream but you don't believe in love
To a man like me when he says goodbye to you
You say goodbye and still think of God
A man like me awaits your return
Releasing one swallow a day into the wind
A man like me walks away at night
He thought it was winter and dies in spring
(Thanks to Germano for this text)
