Guardi la felicità [English translation]

We're extremes that don't meet here,

Let me come over instead, if that's ok with you, it's easier

The rain makes it up to the clouds

Sweeps tears away, your tears

We're one inch 1 away from the moon

And we're the sky

Look happiness in the eye

If you stay in its way 2, it won't come for you

You can find it by your side

Take up its time

If you don't know how to get it done

But as long as you run after it, it won't wait for you

You need to keep up the pace

With no remorse whatsoever

Because love will come

If you never look for it

I can see your wake, you can't hide

I'm here, close, right behind you

You can't defend yourself from this tide

Let yourself be swallowed up

How often are emotions

so very different from what we are?

Look happiness in the eye

If you stay in its way, it won't come for you

You can find it by your side

Take up its time

If you don't know how to get it done

But as long as you run after it, it won't wait for you

You need to keep up the pace

With no remorse whatsoever

Because love will come

If you never look for it

We'll be way more than a thrill

If you follow me

And don't be afraid of drowning

I'll be here with you, if you'll want me to

We'll hold on to the dreams together

Happiness...

Happiness...

Look happiness in the eye

If you stay in its way, it won't come for you

You can find it by your side

Take up its time

If you don't know how to get it done

But as long as you run after it, it won't wait for you

You need to keep up the pace

With no remorse whatsoever

Because love will come

If you never look for it

We're extremes that do meet, now
