La mia storia tra le dita [English translation]

You know I think that

It wasn't useless

Being with you.

Alright, you're going away

Arguable decision

But well, I know, you know.

At least stay here for tonight

Trust me I won't try anything.

Perhaps I already feel too lonely

Because I know the smile

Of someone who already decided.

That same smile once

Opened the gates of heaven for me.

It is said that

For each man

There is another one like you.

Thus in my place

You'll find someone else

Not the same, though, I don't think so.

But this time you lower your eyes and you say

We will always stay good friends.

What goddamn good friends?

A friend is someone I forgive

While you're the one I love.

It might seem banal

But it's a natural instinct.

But there's something

I never told you.

Without you my problems

Become troubles.

And that's why you see me act tough

Out in the world

Just to feel more confident.

And if you really don't want to tell me

What I've done wrong.

Remember, sometimes a man

Needs to be forgiven.

While you,

You leave me no way out.

And you go away with my story between your fingers.

What are you doing now

You're looking for an excuse

You're free to go if you want to.

You don't have to worry

About me

I'll get by

Tonight I'll write a song

To suppress an explosion inside.

I'll do it without thinking too much about the words

I'll talk about that smile

Of someone who already decided

The very same smile that once

Opened the gates of heaven for me.

But there's something

I never told you.

Without you my problems

Become troubles.

And that's why you see me act tough

Out in the world

Just to feel more confident.

And if you really don't want to tell me

What I've done wrong.

Remember, sometimes a man

Needs to be forgiven.

While you,

You leave me no way out.

And you go away with my story between your fingers.
