Le Canzoni

Smiling, you'll feel like crying
Thinking about how many times in the golden moments
You were thinking about something else
In another place
With another time
Right now that I'm looking at you
Inside this corner
Of this world
Where songs are spirits
Like kids we are stupid
And we like the wrong things
Which maybe are the right ones
And we swim against the current
And we make absurd decisions
But the more you think about it, the more mistakes you make
It's instinct the arm that pulls you out
From the quicksands that drag you down
You're right

Songs don't have to be beautiful
They have to be stars
Illuminate the night
Make people dance
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
My voice comes out from within
From an area that is out of control

Inflate the lungs
Pass through the neck
And then it comes out and doesn't come back
We thought breaking a glass was enough
That separates us from the rest of the world
To be free in the end
It's a surface on the surface
You can read the deep meaning
In the lightness of a song
In the flash that catches the expression
We are all different, all scattered
Always on the brink of a revolution
Looking at the world like an autopsy
Letting out the fantasy
And crying we'll feel like laughing
Like sailors of a famous song
My stylish way of proceeding
Towards a world of free people
Songs don't have to be beautiful
They have to be stars
Illuminate the night
Make people dance
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever

The soul is heavy
To carry alone
Take some of mine
Give me some of yours
And hug me tight
Even tighter
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever

Songs don't have to be beautiful
They have to be stars
Illuminate the night
Make people dance
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
Everyone as they please
Everyone where they please
Everyone as they feel
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
As if it were forever
Forever
