Lyrics
di terra nera corsa sotto i piedi
camicie messe al vento ad asciugare,
vanno le voci perse
vanno le voci perse in fondo al mare
(e) acqua e sale e tracce di calore
corda e legno stesi ad invecchiare
perduti in mezzo al mare
perduti in mezzo al mare ad aspettare
ha scarpe troppo strette il mio ritorno
nascosto nelle righe di una mano
misura e desiderio
misura e desiderio in alto mare
si muove controvento il mio cammino
nuvole e rame attesi ad arrossire
sostegno e profezia
sostegno e profezia per ogni canto
noi fummo fatti sangue e migrazioni
ruvide vene svelte sulle mani
esposti al vento e al tempo
esposti al vento e al tempo d’altro mare
e fummo vele gonfie ad ogni approdo
gente che cambia spesso il proprio nome
(e) vesti tempestose
e vesti tempestose e voci a mare
Lyrics translation
Black Earth ride under feet
shirts put to the wind to dry,
lost voices go
the voices lost at the bottom of the sea go
(e) water and salt and traces of heat
rope and wood lying down to age
lost in the middle of the sea
lost in the middle of the sea waiting
has too tight shoes my return
hidden in the lines of a hand
measure and desire
measure and desire on the high seas
it moves against the wind my way
clouds and copper expected to blush
support and prophecy
support and prophecy for every song
we were made blood and migrations
rough quick veins on the hands
exposed to wind and weather
exposed to the wind and the weather of the other sea
and we were swollen sails at every landing
people who often change their name
(e) Stormy garments
and Stormy garments and voices at sea
