7000 caffè [English translation]

7000 coffees

I already drank them because

I'm tired of staying at the steering wheel and I would like

to be with you by this evening

That you wait for me

In your castle up there

With your braid already undone, looking out

of the balcony dressed in blue

7000 coffees

Is the effect that I have

When I arrive at the doorway

And I see you screaming

My name with your eyes, so

Come towards me

And me, crazy for you

In a moment we share the sweetest kiss

The sweetest that there is

I need you

Because you`re beautiful and then

I need all of the things that you don`t have

I need you

Like water, coffee

Like a world that spins and that,

love, if you don`t want it to

Will never stop spinning

For example, you know

Last night I was at home

I was looking for something to drink

But the fridge was empty

Because I hadn`t done the groceries

You won`t believe it

Guess what there was

I found a mug with the last of the 7000 coffees

And now I`m here by myself

And I don`t sleep, I don`t fly

While you`re far, I rethink of a scene of you unveiled

I`m not sure what it is

Maybe the excess coffees

But tonight I can`t sleep, and I`ll make love at my place

I need you

Because you`re beautiful and then

I need all of the things that you don`t have

I need you

Like water, coffee

Like a world that spins and that,

love, if you don`t want it to

Will never stop spinning
