Canzoni lontane [English translation]

When you were talking to me about love

Up above my heart was floating

Only you were make dreaming me

You were the blue, the sky, the sea

Distant songs that I remember a little bit too

Songs in the kitchen on Sunday morning

Our fathers' melancholies

Searching for strenghts gone

And friendships about we don't see each other

Relationships blossomed, relationships broken off

Songs spent in portable record players

But maybe it's easier

To regret than to admit

Time already past not more coming back

And when they say that was better then yes

I reply that it's good to stay here

By now they are

By now they are only

By now, more than ever

Distant songs

Nostalgia is a trap

And if falling into it is sweet, stand inside isn't it

When you were talking to me about love

Up above my heart was floating

Our fathers' nostalgias

Maybe to talk a little bit more about love

Considering that they don't know to do it

Almost more

And when they say that one good day I'll understand

It will be true too, but not by now

By now they are

By now they are only

In each meaning they are only

Distant songs

Passions gone also if

something remains for sure

When you were talking to me about love

Up above my heart was floating

Only you were make dreaming me

You were the blue, the sky, the sea

When you were talking to me about love

Up above my heart was floating

Only you were make dreaming me

You were the blue, the sky, the sea...
