Luna Di Città D'Agosto

City moon of August
You seem like you’re only mine
In this asphalt place
With the people who’ve gone away

City moon of August
I like watching your back
While you’re turned towards the sea
On this serene night

Go and tell her I’m fine
Not to think about me
To just let it go
Go and tell her I’m fine
Not to think about me
To just let it go
The wind blows and time will pass
Time will pass

Buildings and streets like backdrops
Of a show that went wrong
With dancers taking off their makeup
To start dreaming again

City moon of August
Tell me another lie
Let me warm up by the fire
Warmth of nostalgia

Go and tell her I’m fine
Not to think about me
To just let it go
Go and tell her I’m fine
Not to think about me
To just let it go
The wind blows and time will pass
Time will pass
Time will pass
Time will pass

I know how to travel through time
I can travel through time
I’m here with the rhythm that flows from within
Like a premonition
Like the flash of lightning that lights everything up

Infinite moment, it’s all here
Me and the moon left alone in the city
Like my dad in the summer many years ago
Earning a living for us at the beach
Because iodine and salt are good for kids
While memories rush over me
After a sick sunset of a red sun
I think of you every moment but I’ll never tell you

I stand strong in the world
With a samurai face
Oh, moon stay close to me
Being alone is a fate
Silence a beacon in the sky like when I was a kid
I imagined one day we’d build a home
An astronaut, NASA, a pink tarantula
A cop car screaming someone made a mess

In every bar a desert
Little princes around
A guitar playing
You fall in love with me
It’s all good, I’m fine
Don’t worry about me
The wind blows and time will pass
Time will pass
Time will pass
City moon of August
Tell me another lie
Time will pass
Time will pass
