A Eleonora perché è un fiore [English translation]

Baby

You don't know how much I'm sorry

When on saturday your mum

Says she's waiting you there

And so, in a moment,

This house becomes bigger

But I must tell her yes

Maybe

I'm a man like many others

With strange ambitions

But I carry you inside here

You'll come to ask

If you should fight or let you go

But with what and with whom?

Cheer up, you know

Life is always an opportunity

Take things

And hold them tight

The good occasion won't come back

Cheer up, you know

One day, suddenly someone will tell you

That the innocent pays

And he has no sins

You, tell you've already paid.

Baby

I know it makes no sense,

They didn't ask for your approval,

They decided for you too.

Egoism and ambition

To sing you a song

To make you play has its reason.

Baby

Now wait to judge

What's good and evil,

Pointing your finger at me.

To decide what to do

Between the river and the sea

Is not simple... it is not...

Cheer up, you know,

Life is always an opportunity

Take things

And hold them tight.

The good occasion won't come back.

Cheer up, you know

One day, suddenly someone will tell you

That the innocent pays

And he has no guilt

You, tell you've already paid.
