Lyrics
Io dovevo capirlo
Da come mi spogliavi
Dalla musica che ascoltavi
Dovevo si
Io dovevo capirlo
Dai tuoi condizionali
Dai giornali che non leggevi
Dovevo si
Dal ritratto delle tue donne complicate
Dalle occhiate del tuo migliore amico su me
Io dovevo capirlo
Dai treni che perdevi
Dai regali che mi facevi
Dovevo si
Io dovevo capirlo
Da come ti specchiavi
Dalle cose per cui ridevi
Dovevo si
Dai progetti al futuro al singolare
Dai cassetti pieni di sogni da tradire
Ma ah quanta nebbia dentro il cuore
Avere occhi e orecchie e non sentire
La coscienza che bussa alla porta
E mai nessuno va ad aprire
Io dovevo capirlo
Da come mi chiamavi
Dal partito per cui votavi
Dovevo si
Io dovevo capirlo
Dalle piccole cose
Le distanze pericolose
Dovevo si
Dai silenzi vuoti di intesa e poesia
Dai miei attacchi improvvisi di narcolessia
Ma…
Era tutto chiaro come il sole
Era chiaro nonostante me
(Grazie a nicoletta per questo testo)
Lyrics translation
I had to understand that.
The way you stripped me
From the music you were listening to
I had to.
I had to understand that.
From your conditionals
From the papers you didn't read
I had to.
From the portrait of your complicated women
From your best friend's looks on me
I had to understand that.
From the trains you missed
From the gifts you gave me
I had to.
I had to understand that.
From the way you looked at yourself
From the things you laughed at
I had to.
From projects to the future to the singular
From the drawers full of dreams to betray
But ah how much fog inside the heart
Have eyes and ears and do not feel
The conscience that knocks at the door
And no one ever goes to open
I had to understand that.
From what you called me
From the party you voted for
I had to.
I had to understand that.
From the little things
Dangerous distances
I had to.
From the empty silences of understanding and poetry
From my sudden attacks of narcolepsy
But…
It was all clear as the sun
It was clear despite me
