La lontananza [English translation]

I remember that our speech

Was interrupted by a siren

That came from distance, but who knows from where?

I was afraid because

Everytime I hear that sound

I think of something bad

And I didn't realize that for me and for you

There wouldn't be anything worse

Than our separation

So as now

We looked at each other

We would've wanted to stay there, hugging each other, instead

With a smile I went with you along the lonely path

I kissed you as usual, and tenderly I said ...

"The distance, you know, is like the wind,

Puts out the little fire

But makes bigger the big ones... the big ones."

The distance, you know is like the wind

That makes one forget who one doesn't love

It's been already one year and there's a fire

That burns the soul

Now that there's been such a long time

I'd give my life to have you near

To see you again for even a single moment

To say to you "forgive me."

I didn't understand a thing of the good you did to me

And I threw away meaningless

The only true thing in my life

Your love for me

Bye, love

Bye, don't cry

You'll see I'll come back

Promise, I'll come back

I swear, love, I'll come back

'Cause I love you

I love you

I'll come back

Bye, love

Bye

I love you
