Mille Anni
Gigliola Cinquetti
A Thousand Years
The door closes, the steps, your steps
The marks you leave behind
Yesterday's newspaper that you read in a hurry
The cigarette butt you put out in the tea.
A thousand years, a thousand and more years with you
Won't be enough because I want to get to know you, my love
And I would like to have everything from you
Even the thoughts you have
And that you hide deep inside.
The things you say, the gestures you make
The look that passes over me
The eyes, your eyes, the face, your face
The cat that plays with you.
A thousand years, a thousand and more years with you
Won't be enough because I want to get to know you, my love.
A thousand years, a whole life like this
What has been will be
Until the end of time
A thousand, a thousand years
A thousand, a thousand years
A thousand, a thousand years
A thousand, a thousand years
A thousand, a thousand years.
