The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Senza Un Posto Dove Dormire" by Massimo Volume.
Lyrics
Non avevo un posto dove dormire
Guidavo tutta la notte fino a perdere il filo dei miei pensieri
Mi dirigevo fuori dal centro
Imboccavo la tangenziale
Le luci battevano sul cofano della macchina
Fissavo quelle luci
Quando tornavo in me ero stremato
Io e Ada c’eravamo lasciati
Avevamo venduto l’appartamento
Con quei soldi sarei andato in Spagna
Era un’idea
A Napoli cercai un hotel
Poi andai a tagliarmi i capelli
Chiesi: 'Qual è il quartiere delle puttane?'
Il barbiere mi indicò una strada di case basse
Erano tutte sedute fuori
Sopra il cielo tendeva al viola
Non era ancora notte
Mi chiamavano
Qualcuna cercava di attirarmi con un gesto
O alzando la gonna
Steso sul materasso
Steso sul materasso senza lenzuola
Dopo che ero venuto mi resi conto di questo
Tante cose non sarebbero più state le stesse
Da quel momento in poi
Da quel momento in poi avrei dovuto fare i conti
Con cose di cui avevo una conoscenza
Solo vaga
La solitudine
Ad esempio
Lyrics translation
I had nowhere to sleep
I drove all night until I lost the thread of my thoughts
I was heading out of the center.
I took the ring road
The lights were beating on the hood of the car
I was staring at those lights.
When I came to myself I was exhausted
Ada and I had broken up.
We sold the apartment.
With that money I would have gone to Spain
It was an idea
In Naples I was looking for a hotel
Then I went to get my hair cut
I said, 'What's the whores' neighborhood?'
The barber pointed me to a street of low houses
They were all sitting outside
Above the sky tended to purple
It was not night yet
They called me.
Someone was trying to lure me with a gesture
Or raising the skirt
Lying on the mattress
Lying on the mattress without sheets
After I had come I realized this
So many things would not have been the same
From that moment on
From that moment on, I would have had to do the math.
With things I knew about
Just wander
Solitude
For example
