Lyrics

L’arno di barche ubriache di sole
Ti sorrideva tagliando a met?
La tua bellezza rubata da un film
Quarant’anni fa…
L’arno con l’abito al tuo matrimonio
E un anno dopo quel sessantatre
Io mi affacciavo alla vita in orario
E la casa in Santo spirito
Com’era piccola
Ma sull’Arno in braccio a te Comandavo la citt?
Dove sar? Quell’albero
Che giocava in giardino con noi
La verit? Di un attimo
Ogni giorno piu viva che mai
Dove sarai anche tu Perch? Non mi ricordo pi?
Quanto mi amavi…
Ma l’Arno a due anni gridando il suo nome
Prese la strada della libert?
E sotto la pioggia di un cielo di rame
Abbracci? Firenze immobile
Le nostre favole
Le paure dentro me Quella tua felicit?
Dove sar? Quel tavolo
Che parlava in cucina con noi
Che non mi ha visto crescere
Perch? L’Arno ha rapito anche lui
Diglielo almeno tu A questa isterica trib?
Che siamo vivi
Mentre l’Arno se ne va
Dove sar? Quell? 'angelo
Che ha salvato qualcosa di noi
E mi ha lasciato un compito
Ricordare quei piccoli eroi
Che hanno una lacrima in pi?
La stessa che lasciasti tu Sui loro nomi
Guardo Firenze dagli occhi dell’Arno

Lyrics translation

The arno of sun-drunk boats
Did he smile at you cutting at the met?
Your beauty stolen from a movie
Forty years ago…
The arno with the dress at your wedding
And a year after that sixty-three
I was looking at life on time.
And the house in the Holy Spirit
How small she was
But on the Arno in your arms I commanded the city?
Where Will I be? That tree
Playing in the garden with us
The truth? Of a moment
Every day more alive than ever
Where Will you be, because? I don't remember anymore?
How much you loved me…
But the two-year-old Arno shouting his name
Took the road to freedom?
And in the rain of a copper Sky
Hugs? Florence property
Our fairy tales
The fears inside me that your happiness?
Where Will I be? That table
Talking in the kitchen with us
That didn't see me grow up
Perch? The Arno kidnapped him too
Will you at least tell this hysterical tribe?
That we're alive
As the Arno leaves
Where Will I be? Quell? 'Angel
That saved something from us
And he left me a task
Remember those little heroes
That they have a tear in pi?
The same one you left on their names
I look at Florence from the eyes of the Arno
