Una lettera a chi sarò [English translation]

In a night like this

In front of a darkness of emotionless stars

I thought I had grabbed something

That I wanted to tell you

Before you walked away

I thought of this summer that seems to be gentle

And that promises and gifts, but that later passes

And you didn't eat enough fish

And you didn't touch enough hands

And you didn't touch enough seas

Meanwhile

I stayed here, thinking of this summer

I thought of this time that seems to be honest

And that slows down and stops, but that later passes

And you didn't do enough things

And you didn't thank enough times

And you didn't ask to be excused enough

Meanwhile

I stayed here, thinking of this time

A letter to the future me

To hang on my fridge when I receive it

Or to keep in my future memory

For what I understood

A letter to the future me

To read when I think it's useless

Or when I think it's too late

Or when I start forgetting about myself

I thought of this life that seems to be serious

And that surprises and heals, but that later passes

And you haven't chased enough dreams

And you haven't learned enough tricks

And you haven't taught enough joy

Meanwhile

I stayed here, thinking of this life

I thought of this love that seems to be everything

And that fills and means something, but that later passes

And you haven't gotten wise enough

And you haven't gotten young enough

And you haven't gotten immortal enough

Meanwhile

I stayed here, thinking of this love

A letter to the future me

To put in my pockets when I receive it

To recognize my new voice

The one of an old friend

A letter to the future me

To read when I think it's useless

Or when I think it's too late

Or when I start forgetting about myself

In a night like this

In front of a darkness of emotionless stars

I thought I had grabbed something

That I wanted to tell you

Before you walked away
