Prima di ogni cosa [English translation]

I look for a bit of you in De André's song (Italian artist)

There will be livids to be proud of, others not so much

But the truth is: we're half-identical

I'm just a child you'll call "dad"

Because I've got Nasa in my head

Because I'm never at home

The heart consumed as an old pair of Vans

And all the slaps taken in the square

The ink on the arms

Everything matches ...

Your mother that kisses me

The first kiss

The first day at school

The first day in trial

The first love

The first mistake

The first sun that burns you

And it's the first time for me, too

that I see you

Before everything

And I took notes for all the times I made a mistake

I've got a manual of instructions where "instructions" is written attached (in Italian if you attach the word "istruzioni" with its italian preposition "d", you obtain "distructions")

You're the first place in this life that seems new to me

Before everything

Before everything

A ruthless cynical

who had never adapted

who had never enjoyed all the things life gave him

Then you came and everything has stopped

I'd like to teach you everything I've never learnt

Because I've got Nasa in my head

Because I'm never at home

The heart consumed as an old pair of Vans

And all the slaps taken in the square

The ink on the arms

Everything matches ...

Your mother that kisses me

The first kiss

The first day at school

The first day in trial

The first love

The first mistake

The first sun that burns you

And it's the first time for me, too

that I see you

Before everything

And I took notes for all the times I made a mistake

I've got a manual of instructions where "instructions" is written attached (in Italian if you attach the word "istruzioni" with its italian preposition "d", you obtain "distructions")

You're the first place in this life that seems new to me

Before everything

Before everything

Before everything

Before everything
