L'oceano Di Silenzio
Franco Battiato
The Ocean of Silence
An ocean of silence flows slowly
Without a center or a start
What would I have seen of the world
Without this light that shines
On my dark thoughts
(The pain, the standstill of life
Makes time seem too long)
How much peace the soul finds within
Time flows slowly under different laws
In another dimension
And I dive into an ocean of silence
Always calm
(And it almost seems to me
That a dark memory tells me
I lived in distant times
Up there or in the water)
