Lyrics

Le notti non finiscono
All’alba nella via
Le porto a casa insieme a me Ne faccio melodia
E poi mi trovo a scrivere
Chilometri di lettere
Sperando di vederti ancora qui
Inutile parlarne sai
Non capiresti mai
Seguirti fino all’alba e poi
Vedere dove vai
Mi sento un po' bambino ma Lo so con te non finirÃ
Il sogno di sentirsi dentro un film
E poi all’improvviso
Sei arrivata tu Non so chi l’ha deciso
M’hai preso sempre più
Una quotidiana guerra
Con la razionalitÃ
Ma va bene purchè serva
Per farmi uscire
Come mai, ma chi sarai
Per fare questo a me Notti intere ad aspettarti
Ad aspettare te Dimmi come mai, ma chi sarai
Per farmi stare qui
Qui seduto in una stanza
Pregando per un sì
Gli amici se sapessero
Che sono proprio io Pensare che credevano
Che fossi quasi un dio
Perchè non mi fermavo mai
Nessuna storia inutile
Uccidersi d’amore
Ma per chi?
Lo sai all’improvviso
Sei arrivata tu Non so chi l’ha deciso
M’hai preso sempre più
Una quotidiana guerra
Con la razionalitÃ
Ma va bene purchè serva
Per farmi uscire
Come mai, ma chi sarai
Per fare questo a me Notti intere ad aspettarti
Ad aspettare te Dimmi come mai, ma chi sarai
Per farmi stare qui
Qui seduto in una stanza
Pregando per un sì

Lyrics translation

The nights don't end
At dawn in the street
I take them home with me and make a melody
And then I find myself writing
Kilometers of letters
Hoping to see you here again
No need to talk about it, you know.
You would never understand
Follow you till dawn and then
See where you go
I feel a little child but I know with you will not end
The dream of feeling inside a movie
And then suddenly
You're here. I don't know who decided.
You've taken me more and more
A daily War
With rationality
But it's fine as long as it serves
To get me out
How come, but who will you be
To do this to me whole nights waiting for you
To wait for you tell me why, but who will you be
To make me stay here
Here sitting in a room
Praying for a yes
Friends if they knew
That's just me thinking they believed
That I was almost a God
Because I never stopped
No useless story
Kill yourself with love
But for whom?
You know all of a sudden
You're here. I don't know who decided.
You've taken me more and more
A daily War
With rationality
But it's fine as long as it serves
To get me out
How come, but who will you be
To do this to me whole nights waiting for you
To wait for you tell me why, but who will you be
To make me stay here
Here sitting in a room
Praying for a yes
