Ci vorrebbe un amico [English translation]

Being with you was a game

ok, you won, all the rest is life.

But if I think that love is giving everything from deep inside

in this story of ours I am the one going down.

I'd need a friend

in order to forget you

I'd need a friend

in order to forget the bad

I'd need a friend

here, always by my side

I'd need a friend

in pain and in regret

Love, illogical love, desperate love

see, I am crying, but I have forgiven you.

And if I loved [for] nothing, love, my love, forgive

in this cold night all I need is one word.

I'd need a friend

in order to forget you

I'd need a friend

in order to forget the bad

I'd need a friend

here, always by my side

I'd need a friend

in pain and in regret

But living with you was a game

it was a tough fight, regardless of how it ended

but maybe because of the magic night or just the emotion

I find myself again in front of your door.

I'd need a friend

in order to forget you

I'd need a friend

in order to forget the bad

I'd need a friend

here, always by my side

I'd need a friend

in pain and in regret
