Ascolta L'Infinito
Fiorella Mannoia
Listen to the Infinite
We can still play the game of time
Maybe color some postcards
And in future nights throw ourselves away
Keep the heart away from any nostalgia
And this desire for warmth that slowly comes
And this thirst for life that takes over
We will have tables full of happy people
And outside engines full of gasoline
And the opportunity to live fantasies
And to hide small melancholies
But fear and boredom come back slowly
Loneliness takes us so far away
How difficult it is to say everything I feel
All the little big truths
And every movement that will change me
And walk like this in the infinite I have inside
That changes and seeks freedom
And asks to understand what will be
If you speak softly you can already hear it
Listen to the infinite
We will see houses betrayed by the passing of years
They will seem small and forgotten
We will find conversations, curiosities
And that sweetest pain will caress us
But we will not have words to say where
And habit takes us so far away
It is not possible to say everything that ignites
All the weak and strong symmetries
That leave poems in the soul
And that part of us that hides the infinite
That changes us and wants truth
And knows how to communicate what will be
If you look inside you can already see it
Listen to the infinite
