Lyrics

Tu lo chiami amore e non lo vedi eppure lo chiedi
Col falso pudore che ha chi provoca l’amore e non ne da
Tu che dici amore in quale amore credi tu in punta di piedi
Che vegli la tua liberta' se c’e' amore non e' te che prendera'
Io so soltanto che con te ho aspettato
Qualche cosa che non e' arrivato
Ma stare a corto di pazzia mi toglie l’allegria, la voglia
Di mandare il sangue al cuore di mandare sangue al cuore
Io so soltanto che con te ho aspettato
E che il tempo mio non e' bastato
Ma la casa del serpente ha i suoi colori il sole ne sta fuori
Non sfiora la fragilita' di chi fa della paura una sua serenita'
Io so soltanto che con te ho aspettato
Qualche cosa che non e' arrivato
Ma stare a corto di pazzia mi toglie l’allegria, la voglia
Di mandare il sangue al cuore di mandare sangue al cuore
E la casa del serpente avra' sempre il suo colore
Io so soltanto che con te ho aspettato
Io so soltanto che con te ho aspettato

Lyrics translation

You call it love and you don't see it yet you ask
With the false modesty that has those who provoke love and do not give
You who say love in what love do you believe in tiptoe
Watch over your freedom if there is love it's not you who will take
All I know is that I've waited with you
Something that didn't come in.
But running out of madness takes away my joy, my desire
To send blood to the heart to send blood to the heart
All I know is that I've waited with you
And that my time wasn't enough
But the House of the serpent has its colors the sun is out of it
He does not touch the fragility of those who make fear his serenity.
All I know is that I've waited with you
Something that didn't come in.
But running out of madness takes away my joy, my desire
To send blood to the heart to send blood to the heart
And the House of the snake will always have its color
All I know is that I've waited with you
All I know is that I've waited with you
