Sapore di Sale

Taste of salt, taste of sea
that you have on your skin, on your lips
when you come out of the water and come to lie down
next to me, next to me

Taste of salt, taste of sea
a slightly bitter taste of lost things,
of things left far from us
where the world is different, different from here.

Time in the days that pass lazily
and leave in the mouth the taste of salt,
you throw yourself from the water and leave me to watch you
and I remain alone in the sand and under the sun.

Then you come close and let yourself fall
so the sand and in my arms
and while I kiss you taste of salt,
taste of sea, taste of you
