Solo ieri [English translation]

ONLY YESTERDAY SHE WAS HERE

IN MY LIFE

ONLY YESTERDAY THERE WAS THE SUN

THAT MADE ME HAPPY

AND I'VE NEVER

BELIEVED THAT

SHE S\COULD GO AWAY

MAYBE IT WAS BECUASE OF

MY NAIVETY

ONLY YESTERDAY

WHEN MY AGE WAS 'LIGHTER'

NOW I KNOW, YOU PAY IT WITH SADNESS

IN ORDER TO GROW UP

NOW I KNOW

I WILL TALK IN FUTURE FOR THAT

I'LL LOOK MORE IN THE FUTURE

WITH THE CONVICTION THAT I HAVE

THAT I WILL GET OUT OF THIS MOMENT

NO, IT COULDNT END LIKE THAT

I WILL IMAGINE MY LIFE

FOR SOME TIME MORE

NO IT COULDNT END LIKE THIS

I WILL FIND SOMEONE

AND I WILL BE BORN AGAIN

FROM TOMORROW

I WILL THINK OF TODAY

AS OF A YESTERDAY [like: i well leave today in the past, and live a new day]

THE FIRST THING I WILL DO

IS THAT I WONT THROW AWAY

ALL THE GOOD THINGS

THAT I'VE HAD UNTIL NOW

AND FROM HERE, I WOULD LIKE

TO TAKE SOME NEW STEPS

I WILL TALK IN FUTURE FOR THAT

BECAUSE IT ENCOMPASSES ALL

THE IDEAS THAT I HAVE IN MY HEAD

I WILL NOT SURRENDER

NO IT COULDNT END LIKE THIS

I WILL IMAGINE MY LIFE

FOR SOME MORE TIME

NO, IT COULDNT END LIKE THAT

IT COULDNT END BECAUSE

I SEE THAT IN FRONT OF ME

THERE IS A LIGHT

Un'altra luce c'è, per me.

E allora no,

non può finire qui

la vita inventerò

ancora per un pò.

No che non può

che non può finire così

qualcuno troverò

e rinascerò

Già, da domani in poi

pensando ad oggi dirò

e solo ieri ormai

Solo ieri c'era solo lei...
