La Canzone Del Sole
Lucio Battisti
The Song of the Sun
The blonde braids, the blue eyes and then
Your red socks
And the innocence on your cheeks
Two even redder oranges
And the dark cellar where we, breathed slowly
And your runs the echo of your no, oh no
You're scaring me
Where have you been what have you ever done?
A woman, woman, tell me
What does it mean I'm a woman now?
But how many arms have hugged you you know
To become what you are
It doesn't matter so much you won't tell me
Unfortunately
But do you remember the green water and us
The rocks and the white at the bottom
What color are your eyes?
If you ask me I won't answer
Oh black sea, oh black sea, oh sea ne..
You were clear and transparent like me
Oh black sea, oh black sea, oh sea ne..
You were clear and transparent like me
The abandoned bicycles on the lawn and then
The two of us lying in the shade
A flower in your mouth can be useful you know
Everything seems happier
And suddenly that silence between us
And that strange look of yours
The flower falls from your mouth and then..
Oh no stop please your hand
Where have you been what have you ever done?
A woman, woman, tell me
What does it mean I'm a woman now?
I don't know that confident smile you have
I don't know who you are, I don't know who you are anymore
You scare me now, unfortunately
But do you remember the big waves and us
The splashes and your laughter...
What's left in your eyes
Is the flame extinguished or lit?
Oh black sea, oh black sea, oh sea ne..
You were clear and transparent like me
Oh black sea, oh black sea, oh sea ne..
You were clear and transparent like me.
The sun when it rises rises slowly and then
The light spreads all around us
The shadows of ghosts in the night
Are trees and bushes still in bloom
They are the eyes of a woman still full of love
