Gli Amanti [English translation]

They meet, they disappear

like alive people left along the street

they look for each other, they want each other, they pretend to understand

Than they aren't anymore

And it goes, a bit of time goes

hides its colors and takes away

perplexity, silences and nostalgia

it confuses some ideas and it goes

in the tomorrow* that will change us

in the future

They nestle, they look each other, they believe they're gonna die

And no matter what will happen

They chase each other, they escape form each other**, they want to continue

then, they are no more***

but every feeling stay

every breath or little lie

memories, changes and fantasy

they stay with us, they are here in the future, close yet, that will change us

in the present

the lovers are tales that need to be recount slowly

an ancient desire

the lovers are lamps

they turn on the life

and they do not go away
