Lyrics

Mio padre mi portava al porto a vedere le navi partire le navi tornare
Le barche vecchie dei pescatori che cucivano le reti bruciati dal sole e dal
mare
A volte calmo e tranquillo come un campo in pianura a volte faceva paura
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade il mare
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade
Guardavo mio padre guardare mio padre sognare o forse solo ricordare
Lui rideva un pò con gli occhi scrutando il cielo e l’orizzonte mentre mi
stringeva forte
Mi diceva ascolta il vento senti com'è fresco il maestrale e com'è bello
viaggiare
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade il mare
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade
Un giorno tu potrai capire che viaggiando tutto il male potrà scivolare via
Come l’acqua sulla prua potrai voltarti indietro e vedere la sua scia
E che la cosa più importante non è dove potrai arrivare ma che ogni giorno non
sia normale
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade il mare
Era lì di fronte a noi immenso senza strade
Poi una notte di settembre soffiava forte il vento e lui se ne è andato via
Stavo in silenzio e non piangevo e mi voltavo indietro per cercare quella scia
Però mi sono sentito solo e perso in mezzo al buio non sapevo cosa fare
Perchè era lì di fronte a me immenso senza strade il mare
Era lì di fronte a me immenso senza strade

Lyrics translation

My father took me to the harbor to see the ships leave the ships return
The old boats of fishermen who sewed nets burned by the sun and
sea
Sometimes calm and quiet as a field in the plain sometimes it was scary
It was there in front of us immense without roads the sea
It was there in front of us immense without roads
I watched my father watch my father dream or maybe just remember
He laughed a little with his eyes looking at the sky and the horizon as I
he was holding tight.
He was telling me listen to the wind feel how cool the maestrale and how beautiful
travel
It was there in front of us immense without roads the sea
It was there in front of us immense without roads
One day you will understand that traveling all evil will slip away
Like the water on the bow you can look back and see its wake
And that the most important thing is not where you can get but that every day you do not
is normal
It was there in front of us immense without roads the sea
It was there in front of us immense without roads
Then one September night the wind blew hard and he left
I was silent and not crying and I turned back to look for that trail
But I felt lonely and lost in the dark I didn't know what to do
Because it was there in front of me immense without roads the sea
It was there in front of me immense without roads
