Un'Altra Storia
Marco Mengoni
Another Story
In the world there is no one like you
Who looks at me with the same sad eyes
When the sun is shining outside
It's a strange form of melancholy
That reminds me that everything is mine
Only halfway
You wave goodbye to me and I don't know
If I'll see you tomorrow or never again
Looking back is a habit
The spectator of your movie is never you
You don't even say a word
I watch your shadow getting smaller
Until it disappears
And I would like to chase after you
I know well that you want to escape
But you can't hide
Like a hug on the stairs
But you know it yourself
Even now that you're there alone
What do you have to smile about?
I swear, I'm not joking
Do you remember when I told you: I only had you?
When we kill time, time flies
We both know, it's another story
The imperfections of your quirks
Still take me away
And all we needed was a couple of bubbles
To screw nostalgia
We are lost kids
Who recognized each other at first sight
The hours, the seconds, and the minutes
Pass silently as when you're waiting
And now I know where you are
If only you knew where I am
I would ask you how you are
If only you knew how to say goodbye
And you throw a wish into a fountain
And watch it rust
And I would like to chase after you
I know well that you want to escape
But you can't hide
Like a hug on the stairs
But you know it yourself
Even now that you're there alone
What do you have to smile about?
I swear, I'm not joking
Do you remember when I told you: I only had you?
When we kill time, time flies
We both know, it's another story
Realizing in a moment that it's night and we're outside
We walk aimlessly under the streetlights
The wind takes us away, you stay still
The road seems like a desert
And I would like to chase after you
I know well that you want to escape
But you can't hide
Like a hug on the stairs
But you know it yourself
Even now that we're here alone
What do you have to smile about?
I swear, I'm not joking
Do you remember when I told you: I only had you?
(When we kill time, time flies)
(We both know, it's another story)
When we kill time, time flies
We both know, it's another story
