Cenerentola innamorata [English translation]

I understand, it's a serious matter

and you don't want to talk now.

I'll come and pick you up tonight

when you'll leave from work.

A short phone call,

you know all too well we are friends.

It isn't true that you're wrong,

we're all a bit sadder.

And I listen to you talking barely

from your sweet hiding place.

At the end of this dinner

you tell me you're waiting for a child.

He's told you he's not ready

and you can't prove it's his,

he's left you alone and in the meantime

you alone don't know what to do...

It was wonderful to feel loved,

in his eyes you saw the sea,

Cinderella in love.

You can't bring yourself to tell your father,

to him so proud of his daughter,

you're afraid and you don't want to hurt him

on his armchair, while he yawns.

And you're ashamed of your mother,

you don't want to tell her you liked it

to make love, exchange dreams,

when she did it because she had to.

What do you want me to say to you,

I can't give you any advice,

maybe you should just understand

if you do really want a child

of a one time love,

of a love that isn't love,

and you still think about it at night,

while you cry and you don't know what to do...

But it isn't true that you're wrong,

in his eyes you saw the sea,

Cinderella in love.

When we leave the restaurant

you seem even smaller,

there's a Moon as a giant

and in the talks it's morning already.

Under the hospital's wall

what a terrible decision,

you're so small between the good and bad,

you're so small in front of that door.

Then you stop and come back,

in my heart I expected it,

while dawn mists the carglass

you smile to a new love.

With the sun I take you home

and in the car you want to sing,

you're as happy as a bride

because you now know what to do...

Because you now feel loved

and in your eyes one could see the sea,

cinderella in love.
