A Modo Tuo
Elisa
In Your Own Way
It will be difficult to grow up
Before you do too
You who will ask all those questions
I will pretend to know more
It will be difficult
But it will be as it should be
I will put away the toys
I will try to grow
It will be difficult to apologize to you
For a world that is what it is
I try something in my own small way
But changing it is difficult
It will be difficult
To wish you happy birthday
With each passing year
You go a little further away from me
In your own way
You will go
In your own way
You will walk and fall, you will get up
Always in your own way
In your own way
You will see
In your own way
You will swing, jump, sing
Always in your own way
It will be difficult to see you from behind
On the path you will take
All the traffic lights
All the prohibitions
And the queues you will avoid
It will be difficult
As you slowly move away
To search on your own
For who you will be
In your own way
You will go
In your own way
You will walk and fall, you will get up
Always in your own way
In your own way
You will see
In your own way
You will swing, jump, sing
Always in your own way
It will be difficult
To leave you to the world
And keep a piece for myself
And in the middle of
Your merry-go-round
Not being able to protect you
It will be difficult
But it will be all too simple
As you turn around
And keep on laughing
In your own way
You will go
In your own way
You will walk and fall, you will get up
Always in your own way
In your own way
You will see
In your own way
You will swing, jump, sing
Always in your own way
