Lyrics
Se ne vanno via
i vecchi amori
vanno via
e ci lasciano soli
quasi che
mai fossero esistiti
eran qui
ma son gia' spariti
E li rivedi
come in un film di ieri
appannati
nel fondo dei bicchieri
quasi quasi ti stupisci
della loro discrezione
e non capisci
se sia stata una finzione
E che ridicolo che e'
incontrare i loro volti
come stai
che stai facendo
ti chiedono ridendo
E allora vivono soltanto
nelle chiacchiere di notte
in quei discorsi
coi tuoi amici piu' delusi
e un nuovo amore
e' l’unico soltanto
che possa far rivivere
quel tuo vecchio cuore infranto
E che ridicolo che e'
incontrare i loro volti
come stai
che stai facendo
ti chiedono ridendo
Lyrics translation
They're leaving.
old loves
they're leaving.
and they leave us alone
almost like
never existed
they were here
but they're already gone.
And see them again
like in a movie yesterday
tarnished
in the bottom of the glasses
almost almost you wonder
of their discretion
and you don't understand
if it was a fiction
And how ridiculous that is.
meet their faces
how are you
what are you doing
they ask you laughing
And then they only live
in the night chatter
in those speeches
with your most disappointed friends
and a new love
it's the only one
that may revive
that old broken heart of yours
And how ridiculous that is.
meet their faces
how are you
what are you doing
they ask you laughing
