Lyrics
Ti ho vista giu' da un ponte salutarmi
ero sopra a un treno sporco, ti lasciavo dietro me.
Ti ho vista su di un campo: raccoglievi l’insalata
con le guance color fuoco, con la schiena e il capo in giu'.
Ti vedo, sei sempre tu, anche quando non ci sei
e vorrei fermare il treno e vorrei stare in quel campo
a sudare insieme a te; ma non ci sei e ho bisogno d’inventarti
scusa la mia fantasia,
ma cosi' riesci sempre a farmi compagnia.
Ti ho vista, eri un’auto abbandonata,
dentro ti han rubato tutto hai la ruggine, sei devastata.
Ti ho vista, eri un albero malato,
eri il solo in quella strada, la corteccia martoriata,
cento cuori sopra il tuo.
Ti vedo, sei sempre tu,
anche quando non ci sei,
e vorrei che in quella strada
tutti gli alberi del mondo rimanessero con te,
ma non ci sei e ho bisogno d’inventarti
scusa la mia fantasia,
ma cosi' riesci sempre a farmi compagnia
Lyrics translation
I saw you down a bridge saying goodbye
I was on a dirty train, leaving you behind.
I saw you on a field. you were picking salad.
fire-colored cheeks, back and head down.
I see you, it's always you, even when you're not there
and I'd like to stop the train and I'd like to stay in that camp
to sweat with you; but you're not there and I need to invent you
sorry about my fantasy,
but then you can always keep me company.
I saw you. you were an abandoned car.,
inside they've stolen everything you've got rust, you're devastated.
I saw you, you were a sick tree,
you were the only one on that road, the bark was bruised.,
a hundred hearts above yours.
I see you, it's always you,
even when you're not there,
and I wish that in that street
all the trees in the world stayed with you,
but you're not there, and I need to make you up.
sorry about my fantasy,
but you can always keep me company
