L'elefante e la farfalla
Michele Zarrillo
The Elephant and the Butterfly
I'm the elephant and I can't fit
Dragging the weight slowly
I live in shame and eat alone, you don't know
The pain of dreaming for those who never can
I'm the elephant and I hide
But there's no refuge so deep
I don't know how to escape, what a shame to show myself
To your gaze that I love and laughs at me
You're a butterfly, light and free on me
Oh, I'll never reach you
You break my heart and fly away
Up there
I'm the elephant, what can I do
Nailed to the ground and to this love
I try to chase you, but I fall and stay like this
You can't even help me, please go away
You're a butterfly, light and free on me
Oh, I'll never reach you
You break my heart and fly away
From me
Inside of me, inside of me
I have a butterfly heart
And you'll never see
How much it resembles you
Inside of me, inside of me
I have a butterfly heart
And you'll never see
How much it resembles you
Inside of me, inside of me
I have a butterfly heart
