Io Vorrei... Non Vorrei... Ma Se Vuoi...
Lucio Battisti
I Would Like... I Would Not Like... But If You Want...
Where do you go when you are alone
the memory, as you know, does not console
When she left, for example
I turned my house into a temple
And since then, only today I no longer babble
to heal me, who was it
I'm afraid to tell you it's you
Now we are already closer
I would like, I would not like, but if you want
How can a rock
contain the sea
even if I don't want to
I'm already flying back
The blue expanses
and the green lands
The daring descents
and the ascents
up in the open sky
and then down to the desert
and then up again
with a big leap
Where do you go when you are alone
without wings, you know you can't fly
I found myself that day, for example
almost lost in that bed so wide
Stalactites on the ceiling, my days with her
I embraced death
I'm afraid to tell you that for you
I woke up
Now between us only one step
I would like, I would not like, but if you want
How can a rock
contain the sea
even if I don't want to
I'm already flying back
The blue expanses
and the green lands
the daring descents
and the ascents
up in the open sky
and then down to the desert
and then up again
with a big leap
