Cantare e d'amore [English translation]

As when you're pretending

not blood but red polish

water and salt, and not tears I tasted

getting excited like in a battle

fire and dry grass of figurants

and our hearts are horses shaking inside us

Loving each other is like running away

and what have done, what have I ever said?

It's not the truth

that the more you say it, the more you never say it

It's my illusion that is real

And that proudly flows through the fingers of life

it gives the sond and beautiful images of the two of us

Wonderful confusion

between the dialogues and the positions

and every passionate weight is a blow

Butnot the truth

that is always another story, but not hers

hers, who between my kisses is made of love

It's improvvisation

it's not wind and it's not sun

Better if there is no nasty rain

loving each other is like climbing up

on a screen made of of illusion

and then believe that that ivy is real

And lies, my girl

long nose and the taste for goodbyes

It's not the truth

that the more you say it, the more you never say it

it's life that you don't know

maybe like me, you'll live again

when I'm gonna sing my love to you

and when all the swears

made to you are tricks

made to life, that astonished will sideslip

lving each other is, before understanding,

making the reason in us fool

It's not the truth

that the more you say it, the fewer kisses you'll get

It's my illusion that is real

And who loves sings

among the voices of life

water who meets its flowing

or maybe it's better not to sing

to shut up if it's not for love

and somebody has to do it and it's me

that will sing to you

and like in an escape I'll go into your heart

It's not the truth

that the more you say it, the more you never say it

because singing is

is for love

is for love

is for love
