We woke up with your kisses
You were sleeping while Silvia and I
Went to that school where you told us
'You go there to learn'
And you taught us how to live
More and more as the days passed
With your eyes full of this love
For two daughters crazy because of an illusion
I would do anything
So time wouldn't pass...
I've learned to sing because of you
In summer nights in the coffeehouses
I've acquired my bravery
And I've found the road and the joy
Of your strength and of your melancholy
Of your image, of your moment
I've never seen you during the Holidays
We spent them with mommy
Your work took you somewhere far for a day
And your loneliness became mine
I would do anything
To give you back the time that passed...
I've learned how to give myself like you
Risking everything and more
I've learned your courage
And I've understood your usual ways
That for me are now your greatest virtue
Then you are the destination of my trip
And that's how it is...
I'm like you
Always something more
Each smile and each tear
I've acquired your courage...
And I've learned to know in who should I trust
I go on without ever doubting it
On this road in this trip, for you
By your side...
I've acquired my bravery...
I wake up at home every day
I think of when I didn't have you here
And also of what I could do
To give you back the time that passed
