Il mio amico [English translation]

My friend never sleeps at night

Stays awake till morning comes

With his tired face and with some

make-up still on, he leaves

his dreams locked inside a pillow

My friend has so much light in his eyes

To look towards who's not there

He does everything he can to be just like me, he wants to love just like me

But then he closes inside himself

My friend walks down the street

Makes a stop and says 'hi' with a smile on

In his attentive and a little malicious look

He finds thousand of excuses to get closer

My friend wrapped in bitterness

Makes me feel such tenderness

Even when the most safe dawn rises

At night he still gets scared

Tell me what's worng

In loving someone like you

Love has no gender

The shiver is the same

Or maybe a bit stronger

Tell me what's wrong

In loving someone like you

If your heart beats strong

It brings to life the death that lives inside you....

My friend is searching for a new fiancee

Because the other one has betrayed him for a while now

He often sleeps near me inside my bed

And he lets you caress him like you caress a kitten

My friend confides in me about his things

Even those he doesn't know about

Then he looks at me while he loses the smile

He always hopes for the love he doesn't have

Tell me what's wrong

In loving someone like you

Love has no gender

The shiver is the same

Or maybe a bit stronger

On love's road

Always walks down that pain inside you

There's someone who looks at you with dispise

Because he has the heart of a puppet inside

If someone says you're not normal

Don't cry about something you're not

He doesn't know that you are

equal with us and that we are sons of the same God

Tell me what's wrong

In loving a man like you

If your heart beats strong

It brings to life the death that lives inside you...
