Centro Di Gravità Permanente
Franco Battiato
Center of Permanent Gravity
An old Breton
With a hat and an umbrella of rice paper and bamboo cane
Brave captains
Clever Macedonian smugglers
Euclidean Jesuits
Dressed like bonzes to enter the emperors' court
Of the Ming dynasty
I'm looking for a center of permanent gravity
That never makes me change my mind about things and people
I would need
I'm looking for a center of permanent gravity
That never makes me change my mind about things and people
Over and over again
In the streets of Beijing it was May days
Among us we joked about picking nettles
I can't stand Russian choirs
The fake rock music, Italian new wave, English free jazz punk
Not even African black
I'm looking for a center of permanent gravity
That never makes me change my mind about things and people
I would need
I'm looking for a center of permanent gravity
That never makes me change my mind about things and people
Over and over again
You are a woman in love baby come into my life
Baby i need your love
I want your love
Over and over again
