Solo Una Volta

Alex Britti Alex Britti

Just Once

There was the moon, there were the stars
There was a new emotion on the skin
There was the night, there were the flowers
Even in the dark, the colors could be seen
There was the desire to stay together again
Maybe for fun, it comes anyway
Walking hand in hand
And telling each other that the world is strange for us.

Once upon a time, or maybe it was twice
There was a cow, a donkey, and an ox
There was a night with only one star
But it was big, bright, and beautiful
And if you feel like it, we can go to the sea
So we can splash in the water
And then swim, and play dead in the water
We'll check if the moon is still yellow.
Yes..

And while others are still asleep
Maybe they dream of us
And as the sky lightens
We will watch tonight end.

CHORUS
Time goes by, hours pass
And finally, we will make love
Just once or for a lifetime
Hopefully before summer ends
Time goes by, hours pass
I wish I could not wash away the smell
Of this night still to understand
But it's a shame it will have to end.

If everything passes, or everything has already passed
It's a shame I haven't understood it yet
Even if you're no longer between my fingers
Tonight, I will remember it all my life
And if tomorrow I miss you
It will be because I no longer have a sky in the room
I'll have a photo to remember
How much I could tell you that night.

CHORUS

If I don't have any more words in the drawer
A poem I've never read
An adventure to tell when I have nothing left to say
And when I walk barefoot on the street
Anyway, however it goes,
Every time I return to the sea, I'll have something to remember.
