Viceversa

You don't say it and I don't see it
Is love blind or are we off track?
A quarrel born on a bed
A universal flood, a judgment under the roof
Up with a bit of down
Silence broken by a great sound
Simple, yet complex

Books open in balance between secrets and compromises
Easy opportunities for difficult concepts
Pure souls in very dirty flaws
Fragile combinations of reason and emotions
Solitudes and sharing

But if we had to explain in very few words
The complex mechanism that governs the harmony of our love
It would be enough to say, without thinking too much
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa

And having said that, what's left for us
After a life at the center of the party?
Protagonists and number ones
Envied by all and indispensable to none
Mother talking about the father
I just wanted to achieve
My ideal: A normal life

But love, normal, doesn't even have the words
They talk about peace and make the revolution
Dictators in the head and partisans in the heart
There's no solution that isn't acceptance
To let ourselves be abandoned to emotion

But if we had to explain in very few words
The complex mechanism that governs the harmony of our love
It would be enough to say, without thinking too much
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa

It's fear behind arrogance
It's the whole universe closed in a room
It's abundance within lack
I love you, that's it!
It's habit in surprise
It's a victory just before surrender
It's simply everything we lack and search for
To be able to tell you that I love you

But if we had to explain in very few words
The complex mechanism that governs the harmony of our love
It would be enough to say, without thinking too much
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa
That it's you who make me feel good when I'm feeling bad and vice versa
