Un'ultima carezza [English translation]

I wanted to give you one last caress

but it was all over for us by then.

I wanted to tell you one last word

but you cried when I left you.

Now you—where are you?

That one last caress awaits you.

Trapped in my throat are the words

that I failed to say before leaving you.

I wanted to have one last smile

to remember you by—together with your eyes.

But, by then,

you were already far away

and nothing at all remained.

Now you—where are you?

That one last caress awaits you.

Trapped in my throat are the words

that I failed to say before leaving you.

I wanted to have one last smile

to remember you by—together with your eyes.

But, by then,

you were already far away,

and nothing at all remained—

and nothing at all remained.
