La Neve Prima Che Cada
Marco Mengoni
The Snow Before It Falls
Now listen to me
I gotta tell you that
Forever can last just an hour
Or sometimes a little more
What you tell me
I won’t hear
'Cause love is deaf when it’s scared
Or when it’s full of itself
We’re not the ones who promise eternity
'Cause you can change direction
A house, a bed,
Dreams change directors but
Now we’re here, you
You ask me what it is
The snow just before it falls
It’s not like us
We’re just two feathers in the air
You ask me what it is
Love just before it dies
If there’s a piece of dawn at dusk
I’ll bring it to you
Clenched fists that
This heart has
It’s vulnerable, you know,
Even if it acts tough
We’re not the ones who promise eternity
'Cause you can fall into temptation
And then you
You ask me what it is
The snow just before it falls
It’s not like us
We’re just words in the air
You ask me what it is
Love just before it dies
But the only certainty I have
The only certainty I have
Is that at dusk I’ll find the dawn
You ask me what it is
The snow just before it falls
It’s not like us
We’re just two feathers in the air
What is love
A moment before it dies
But the only certainty I have
The only certainty I have
Is that at dusk I’ll find the dawn
