Day and night

Very long night.

Fool enough to almost be it

Cool enough to not quite see it

Doomed

Where the cold wind winds blow.

Don't lie to me.

Shiver the whole night through.

Há tantas vidas

sigo o cheiro

que me deixaste preso ás mãos

e me sufoca ao meio da noite

numa boa maldição

Oh these sour times

'Cause all I have left is my memories of yesterday

Io non capisco

Incontro alla ragazza che lo può fare nascere gli ridà vita in lui la rifiuta.

You will never feel ready

Because ready is not a feeling. It is a decision.

What do you want from me?

To find myself, so I may fall myself unto you.

Oh, I beg you

...

(say something)

Hell(o)

unrequited love

Sinking faster than a boat without a hull

My lord

Dreaming about the day when I can see you there

My side

By my side

What's worse?

Loving someone you cannot have?

Or, having someone you cannot love?

...

I replied: leaving someone you can never unlove.

A veil

A curtain. Of silence, distance, despair.

And yet, I feel your lips still and fore.

ci vediamo

domani e dopodomani e l'altro ancora e stasera

Purtroppo, solo nei nostri sogni. 

Forse, solo nei miei...

This is our last dance

Although we never had a first.

Say, say my name

I need a little love to ease the pain

 

Memories strike

A swirl of emotions akin to the anticipation with which I lived the day.

Not knowing how deep we'd go. Not knowing how profound the connection. Unsure of the how, what, when. 

I tried to stick to what was in my control. Flight times. Routes. Possibly, some work. 

I was hopeful, but anxious. I remember I shook often. 

Your smile, as you entered the car wiped it all. 

But I am sure you know. I told you before. What I haven't said is that I miss you. That I would love to be celebrating. 

And loving you. Just as deeply and profoundly as that first time.

La solitudine fra noi

Questo silenzio dentro me

E l'inquietudine di vivere la vita senza te

No song unsung, no wine untasted

It was later

She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,'

though in truth we were at sea

so I took her by the looking glass

and forced her to agree

saying, 'You must be the mermaid

who took Neptune for a ride.'

But she smiled at me so sadly

that my anger straightway died

If music be the food of love

then laughter is its queen

and likewise if behind is in front

then dirt in truth is clean

My mouth by then like cardboard

seemed to slip straight through my head

So we crash-dived straightway quickly

and attacked the ocean bed  

The minute I heard my first love story,

I started looking for you,

not know how blind that was.

Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere.

They’re in each other all along.

I wish

Ignorance was bliss.

 

I look at the board

And every time i see Geneva or Firenze, my soul is soothing.

I know it is meaningless in this chapter of silence, that is likely to become the only one left on the book. But it somehow connects me to a reality that once was, and that there is a link, a path, a route, a network that could lead me back to you.

And I know back to you means back to closed arms. To a turned back. But yet, I would see your silhouette. And perhaps, just perhaps, you would look at me for a second, crave a memory, and maybe whisper a few words that I could fill my treasure chest with.

It was sweet.

We're running out of alibis 

On the second of May  

 

It is now bitter. And not a symphony.

time that has taken my tomorrows and turned them into yesterdays

And once again that rising sun is droppin on down

And once again you, my friend, are nowhere to be found

I don't belong here

What the hell am I doin' here?

Why not?

Life is short. Life is dull. Life is full of pain. And this is a chance for something special

 

We'll start a jazz band

You did not whisper. 

You begged, you cried, you shouted, you grabbed my head with your hands so I realized it : "this is real."

It was, and still is.

I Love you, always forever.

Our old friend fear

And you

And me

J'ai voulu rêver plus loin

Voir l'horizon chavirer

Et chaque jour je me souviens

Que j'aimerais oublier

La nuit où pour tout salir

Un autre a pris ta place

Le vertige, l'envie d'en finir

Que ton ombre s'efface

Mais rien n'a commencé

Rien n'a fini

Je suis restée à quai / J'ai failli m'embarquer

Mes souvenirs sont en lambeaux

Ils s'effilent par endroits

Et même s'ils prennent l'eau

Ils ne me lâcheront pas

J'ai peur de te sourire

De voir mes lèvres te mentir

Et je crains de t'en vouloir

De rester là sans savoir

Que rien n'a commencé

Rien n'a fini

Je suis restée à quai / J'ai failli m'embarquer

Not enjoying

Words are trivial

Pleasures remain

So does the pain

Words are meaningless

And forgettable

Dusk to dawn

A kiss.

Would you permit me the indulgence of a tender liberty?

Unflappable

But I want to believe emotions are there, nevertheless.

Can't answer.

 

Like a shadow on me all of the time

Every now and then I fall apart.

Our steps will always rhyme

 

Can't forget.

Hope you did.

"Blessed are the forgetful, for they get the better even of their blunders. "

But all he captures

Is endless rain, endless rain.

Be the water where I'm wading

I would float, I would rise

I did. 

6 years

And the Monday is a Monday.

I may recall every step.

Perché non sa voler bene.

 

You are placing yourself safe from me

And that is the wise choice.

My mess is unbearable.

 

Would writing you

Be faltering?

My worry

Means nothing. Because it is invisible, inconsequential, useless.

I should come back begging

Instead, I lie here lying.
