Oggi sono io [English translation]

And I don't know why, what I want to tell you

I'll then write it in a song

I don't even know if you'll listen to it

Or if it will stay as only another fragile illusion

If the words were music I'd play it for hours and hours

More hours, and tell you everything about myself

But when I see you there's something that stops me

And I can't even ask you how you're doing

How good you look in those black pants

How good you look today

How I wish I wouldn't fall into those conversations that have been had millions of times

And ruin everything

How I wish I could talk without worrying

Without that feeling that doesn't let me say

That I really like you, even if I haven't told you

Because it's sleazy to try only to sleep with you

And I don't give a damn if I still have to wait

To finally talk to you

Saying only a word, but sweet as I can

Like the sea, like sex

I finally present myself

And so, even this night is over

And I still don't know the way you are

I don't even know if I'll see you again

Or if another useless occasion will remain

And tomorrow I'll see you again

And I really like you, even if I haven't told you

Because it's sleazy to try only to sleep with you

And I don't give a damn if it hasn't happened yet

I'll wait until it's the right moment and it won't be the only time

I hope as much as I can, that it won't be just sex

This time I'll claim it

I prefer staying here by myself

Than with fake company

And if I'll really take flight

I'll wait for love

And it will really be love

And I don't know if it'll really be you

Or maybe you're just an illusion

But tonight I'll relax

Think of you

And write a song

As sweet as I can

Like the sea, like sex

This time I'll claim it

Because today I am myself

Today I am myself
