La Solitudine

Marco has gone and won't come back
And the 7:30 train without him
Is a heart of metal without a soul
In the cold gray morning of the city
At school the desk is empty, Marco is inside me
His breath is sweet among my thoughts
Enormous distances seem to divide us
But the heart beats strongly inside me

I wonder if you'll think of me
If you never talk to your family
If you hide like me
Avoid the looks and stay
Locked in your room and don't want to eat
Hold the pillow tightly to you
Cry and you don't know
How much more loneliness will hurt you

In my diary, I have a photograph of Marco
You have the eyes of a slightly shy child
I hold it close to my heart and feel you're there
Among English and math homework
Your father and his advice, how monotonous
He took you away with his work
Certainly, he never asked for your opinion
He said: One day you'll understand me

I wonder if you'll think of me, if you'll talk with friends
To not suffer anymore for me, but it's not easy, you know
I can't take it anymore at school, and the afternoons without you
Studying is useless, all ideas, crowded around you
It's not possible to separate
The life of us two
Please wait for me, my love
But I don't know how to deceive you!

The loneliness between us
This silence inside me
And the restlessness of living
Life without you
Please wait for me because
I can't be without you
It's not possible to separate
The story of us two

The loneliness between us
This silence inside me
And the restlessness of living
Life without you
Please wait for me because
I can't be without you
It's not possible to separate
The story of us two

The loneliness
