Il Mio Rifugio
Richard Cocciante
My Refuge
When the evening slides over us
At the school exit in the city
We take each other's hand and I told you
I love you
When a child then cut our path
With a tin drum and a trail
And then that sound bounced over us
I love you
My refuge......is you
Then you held me tight
Almost protecting the echo inside you
Of the first words of love
I love you
When the snow of silence whitened
All that noise in the city center
And our words froze
I love you
My refuge...is you
When the enchantment still speaks of you
From a painting, a dawn from what
Doesn't exist
Smiling, I still think of you
That I love you
So far away, I don't know if you'll be
So close, you'll be able to listen to me
Like me, no one will know how to tell you
I love you
My refuge...is you
