La mia storia tra le dita [English translation]

You know I think that

It wasn't pointless being with you

Alright, so, you're leaving

A debatable decision...

Oh yes, I know, you know

At least stay here tonight

Its not like I'll come on to you, don't worry

It might be I'm already feeling alone

Because I know that smile

A person that already made up their mind

That same smile once opened paradise

They say for every man there's another like you

So, therefore, you'll find another me?

No, don't think so!

This time you lower your eyes and say

We'll always remain good friends..

What bloody good friends!?

I can forgive a friend, but you I love

It might seem trivial to you, but it's a natural instinct

And there's something

I never told you..

Without you, my problems become troubles

So I put on the tough guy act

Out in the world to feel more secure

And if you really don't want to tell me I was wrong

Remember, that even men can be forgiven

But instead you don't leave me an exit-way

And leave with my story wrapped around your fingers

Now what are you going to do?

Look for an excuse?

If you want to leave, go

As for me, you need not worry

I know I can handle it

Tonight, I will write a song

To suffocate this inner explosion

Without thinking too much about the words

Because I know that smile

A person that already made up their mind

That same smile once opened paradise

And there's something I never told you

Without you, my problems become troubles

So I put on the tough guy act

Out in the world to feel more secure

And if you really don't want to tell me I was wrong

Remember, that even men can be forgiven

But instead you don't leave me an exit-way

And leave with my story wrapped around your fingers
