Sei nell'anima [English translation]

I’m going back to square one like this.

I’ll turn out the lights

And from here you’ll disappear

In a few moments

Outside this fog

Outside the storm

There’s a long and limpid night

It will end

But it’s tenderness

That scares us

You’re in my soul

And I leave you there always

Suspended, unmoving

Freeze-frame

A sign that never goes away

I’m going back to square one, you’ll see.

What stays behind

Isn’t all false and useless

You’ll understand.

I let days go by

Between certainties and mistakes

It’s a narrow, narrow road

That leads to you

Such tenderness

Doesn’t scare us any more

You’re in my soul

And I leave you there always

You’re in each part of me

I feel you descend

Between my breath and my pulse

You’re in my soul

You’re in my soul

In this defenceless space

It all begins with you

We don’t need a reason

We’re flesh and breath

Drop by drop

Side by side
