Ricordi

At least until tomorrow morning I promise you that
I'll be the face you need the most
The school friend who steals your marbles
Or the impossible lover silenced in a dream
Better to burn than to fade away
Said by the one who shouldn't illuminate others
But I'm always afraid of staying in the dark
Lying to your mind while I try to save you
Better not say anything waiting for the morning, I smile
If I think of the name you will give me tomorrow
And teach you again the sign of the cross
So I'll have another excuse to touch those hands

You see, there are memories that you owe me
You're grown up, but I still call you Baby
I have red eyes, but you don't notice
I watch you while you sleep
But just yesterday you were here, in the dark days
The ones where it rains too hard to stand
And we even screwed death flying lightly
You asked me: Tell me, what do you fear? What do you believe in?
My answer is you

It will surprise you, but no, I'm no longer jealous of the past
In which I wasn't there, in fact I miss it more
Because I followed the topography of the self alone
The astronomy of us two you taught me, that
Now you eat yourself from the inside, a little extinguished planet
Like a crumb in the wind, it's a black hole and a blue eye, and
I'm little more than a jamais vu among all these people
In my head I play Taboo, I lose if I say your name

You see, there are memories that you owe me
You're grown up, but I still call you Baby
I have red eyes, but you don't notice
I watch you while you sleep
But just yesterday you were here, in the dark days
The ones where it rains too hard to stand
And we even screwed death flying lightly
You asked me: Tell me, what do you fear? What do you believe in?
My answer is you

Uh-uh uh-uh

I yawn and take the vial of aducanumab
And I think that even this night will end soon
I'll hold your hand and you hold my soul
And even if you don't know who I am, never let it go

You see, there are memories that you owe me
You're grown up, but I still call you Baby
I have red eyes, but you don't notice
I watch you while you sleep
But just yesterday you were here, in the dark days
The ones where it rains too hard to stand
And we even screwed death flying lightly
You asked me: Tell me, what do you fear? What do you believe in?
My answer is you

Uh-uh uh-uh
My answer is you
Uh-uh uh-uh
My answer is you
