Una Carezza In Um Pugno

A caress in a fist

At midnight you know
that I'll think of you
wherever you are, you're mine.
And I'll hold the pillow in my arms
while I'll look for your face
that will shine beautifully in the shadow.
It will seem to me to catch
a star in the middle of the sky
so you won't be far
when you shine in my hand.
But I wouldn't want you
to already be thinking of another man
at midnight and three
I already feel lost
and my hand where you used to shine
has become a closed fist, you know.
I haven't been as bad as now
and when midnight comes
if you really love me
think of me for at least half an hour
and from the closed fist
a caress will be born.
And I'll hold the pillow in my arms
while I'll look for your face
that will shine beautifully in the shadow.
But I wouldn't want you
to already be thinking of another man
at midnight and three
I already feel lost
and my hand where you used to shine
has become a closed fist, you know.
I haven't been as bad as now
and when midnight comes
if you really love me
think of me for at least half an hour
and from the closed fist
a caress will be born.
And I'll hold the pillow in my arms
while I'll look for your face
that will shine beautifully in the shadow.
