Respiri di vita [English translation]

I feel a faint desire

soften my eyes and heart.

A joy which resembles pain.

I catch the faint scent of your perfume.

It invades my senses,

and my anguish dissolves.

A green apple Morsico

has the taste of love.

Partly sweet, partly hard to understand.

I breathe in my future and

look calmly towards the sea.

It is the metallic colour of the dying.

But look,

the water is a little bluer.

Look over there,

the sky is over the sea no more.

It almost feels as though creation

has forgotten me.

No, I'm wrong.

It was just the sun playing tricks on the water.

Like an erotic dancer,

you, with your beautiful body,

light up my dreams.

Flying like a butterfly,

you are the uncertainty in my life.

But if you should stop, my life would be over.

But look,

the water is a little bluer.

Look over there,

the sky is over the sea no more.

It almost feels as though creation

has forgotten me.

No, I'm wrong.

It was just the sun playing tricks on the water.

But look,

the water is a little bluer.

Look over there,

the sky is over the sea no more.

It almost feels as though creation

has forgotten me.

No, I'm wrong.

It was just the sun playing tricks on the water.
