Angelus
Ivano Fossati
Angelus
Here you are
ready and silent like a piano
styled and dressed
like a collectible angel
and there's no feeling
that I don't know how to crave
even a little light is enough
I know how to make it last
I know how to make it last.
To my hungry will
you spoke gently
I want to tell you that words
aren't enough for me anymore
so I come in the name
of forgotten caresses
female words left behind
on the muddy pavement of the world.
And do you feel it or not
the exact sound of my reasons
do you understand what it is
the renunciation of pain.
It means call me what you want
but don’t call me love
call me what you want
I am worthy of my name
it means call me what you want
but don’t call me love
call me what you want
call me what you want.
Here you are
ready and silent like a calendar
decorated and kind
here you are.
Me, and those like me
we're waiting for miracles.
