Meglio così

Zero Assoluto's 'Meglio così' is a poignant exploration of nostalgia, love, and the complexities of human relationships. The song opens with a reflective tone, as the narrator asks how the other person is doing and mentions that they are managing well. This sets the stage for a journey through memories and emotions, highlighting the fleeting nature of time and the enduring impact of past experiences. The lyrics suggest a longing to stay in the present moment, despite the ease of slipping into memories of what once was.

The chorus delves into the intangible nature of happiness and the difficulty of recapturing past intimacy. The lines 'Qualcosa c'è, ma è difficile / Non si può toccare, ma vivere' (Something is there, but it's difficult / You can't touch it, but live it) emphasize the elusive quality of happiness and connection. The song reflects on the shared moments of doing nothing together, the conviction of living for each other forever, and the warmth that united them. These sentiments are juxtaposed with the present reality, where the narrator questions what remains if memories alone are not enough to sustain their bond.

The recurring theme of remembering and the desire to stay together underscores the song's emotional depth. The repetition of 'Ci pensi mai / Io e te a dormire' (Do you ever think about it / You and me sleeping) evokes a sense of longing for the simplicity and uniqueness of their past relationship. The song captures the bittersweet nature of reminiscing about a time when everything felt perfect and unique, while also grappling with the present and the uncertainty of what remains. 'Meglio così' beautifully encapsulates the tension between past and present, memory and reality, and the enduring desire for connection.
