Portami a ballare [English translation]

Take me to dance.

Take me to dance

one of those ancient dances

nobody knows how to dance anymore.

Let your hair loose.

Let it fly.

Let it spin vigorously

around us.

Let yourself be watched.

Let yourself be watched.

You're so beautiful

I can't even talk anymore.

Before those eyes of yours,

so sweet and so severe,

even times has stopped

to wait.

Tell me about you,

about what you did.

If this really was

the life you wanted.

About the way you dressed.

About the way you combed and

if I already had a place

at the bottom of your thoughts.

Come on, mum, come on.

Tonight let's leave here

your problems and your speeches

about wrinkles and age.

Come on, mum, come on.

Tonight let's run away.

It's been so long since we've been together.

It's not your fault at all.

But I always feel you near me

even when we're not near.

I still carry you within me

even though I'm a man now.

And I wish, I wish

I knew you're happier.

Yes, I'd like, I'd like

to tell you many more things.

But you know, mum, you know

this life makes me tremble

and feelings are always

the first who must pay.

Bye, mum, bye!

Tomorrow I'm leaving

but if you're feeling too lonely,

then I'll take you with me!

And I wish, I wish

I knew you're happier.

Yes, I'd like, I'd like

to tell you many more things.

Take me to dance.

Take me to dance

one of those ancient dances

nobody knows,

nobody knows know to dance anymore.
