Ieri Si

Yesterday yes, when I was young
The taste of life, I burned it within me
Oh yesterday yes, when I was young because
The flame trembles a bit but never goes out...

I lived every day as my heart suggested
I had castles that I no longer have
Then at night I sought the sun around me
And I didn't see time consuming me...

Yesterday yes, when I was young I sang the songs
Easier for me and in my hands
I believed that there was already the thread of eternity.

I never asked others around me
What is the truth, what is life
I believed in the things I said
I only thought of myself and nothing else...

Yesterday yes, when I was young,
The light of each day brought a madness
The strength of age filled my days
And I never saw the emptiness within her..

The games of love, I played them all
I made pride my first virtue
Friends have gone, they won't come back
My comedy now I will finish alone

I still have a song but I won't sing it
I won't find the taste of life again
It's time to pay for my past mistakes
Yesterday, when I was young...
