Lyrics

Se avessi tempo, io camminerei
Sopra il tuo corpo addormentato
E bagnerei di pioggia la tua schiena
Che asciugherei col freddo della sera
Se avessi tempo, ti regalerei
Questo mio ultimo dolore
Che rassegnato ormai non fa più male
É una carezza che non fa rumore
E troverei la forza di svegliare
La gente addormentata nelle case
E troverei la forza di spaccare
Questa mia stanza dove tutto tace
Se avessi tempo, io ti salverei
Dalle bestemmie della vita
Se avessi tempo, io ti stringerei
Fino a spezzarti tra le dita
Se avessi tempo, io ti stupirei
Tutte le volte che cammino
Tra le tue mani bianche cercherei
Il vento fresco del mattino
Se avessi tempo, io ti parlerei
Come facevo da bambino
Perduto nei tuoi occhi belli, immensi
Seduto solo su un gradino
Vorrei avere grandi enormi braccia
Per abbracciarti tutto quanto sei
Vorrei vedere la tua vera faccia
Tra tutte quelle che purtroppo hai
E troverei la forza di gridare
Senza paura di svegliarti
E troverei la forza di scappare
Senza paura di lasciarti
Se avessi tempo, io ti affogherei
Dentro la luce di una stella
Se avessi tempo, forse scriverei
Una canzone, la più bella

Lyrics translation

If I had time, I would walk
Above your sleeping body
And I'd rain your back
That I would dry in the cold of the evening
If I had time, I'd give you a gift.
This my last pain
That resigned now no longer hurts
It's a caress that makes no noise
And I'd find the strength to wake up
People sleeping in houses
And I'd find the strength to smash
This room of mine where everything is silent
If I had time, I'd save you.
From the blasphemies of life
If I had time, I'd squeeze you.
Until you break between your fingers
If I had time, I'd surprise you.
Every time I walk
Between your white hands I would seek
The fresh morning wind
If I had time, I'd talk to you.
Like I used to be when I was a kid
Lost in your beautiful, immense eyes
Sitting only on a step
I wish I had big huge arms
To embrace all you are
I'd like to see your real face
Of all the ones you unfortunately have
And I'd find the strength to shout
Without fear of waking you
And I would find the strength to escape
Without fear of leaving you
If I had time, I'd drown you.
Inside the light of a star
If I had time, maybe I would write
A song, the most beautiful
