Lyrics
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente per la strada,
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente per la strada,
il mondo passa accanto a lei e non la sfiora mai.
Con le mani aperte, il cuore aperto Irene guarda gi№.
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente al suo suicidio,
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente al suo suicidio,
con il telefono staccato, l’anima in libert.
Com' grande il cielo e com' piccola una donna,
com' grande il cielo.
Ed il traffico sta crescendo mentre il sole se ne va
ed Irene sta sognando cose che non sa.
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente per la strada,
Irene alla finestra e tanta gente per la strada,
il mondo passa accanto a lei e non la sfiora mai.
Con le mani aperte, il cuore aperto Irene guarda gi№.
Lyrics translation
Irene at the window and lots of people on the street,
Irene at the window and lots of people on the street,
the world passes by her and never touches her.
With open hands, open heart Irene looks GI№.
Irene at the window and a lot of people at her suicide,
Irene at the window and a lot of people at her suicide,
with the phone disconnected, the soul in freedom.
How big the sky and how small a woman,
how big the sky.
And the traffic is growing as the sun goes
and Irene is dreaming things she doesn't know.
Irene at the window and lots of people on the street,
Irene at the window and lots of people on the street,
the world passes by her and never touches her.
With open hands, open heart Irene looks GI№.
