Ma come hai fatto [English translation]

I love you

as it's never happened before in my life

so deeply

that I'm afraid of myself

of this immeasurable love

I feel for you now.

I desire you

A new desire that's tormenting me.

Sometimes I wonder how it's possible

for me to fall asleep,

wake up again

go away, come back and have you

always in front of me

in my eyes, in my thoughts,

in every instant of my life.

I need you

as a boat needs the sea

to sail,

the spring needs the sun

to bloom,

a butterfly needs a flower

a child needs a hand to accompany him,

a dog needs an owner

and a kite needs the wind

to fly

and I need you always next to me

in every instant of my life.

But how did you

make me fall in love so deeply?

I look at myself in the mirror and wonder

whether that's me.

But how did you

make my life a thing of yours

turn time into a wait

to see you again.

No, this life of mine doesn't make sense

and the more I think about it

the more it's a string in your hands.

But how did you do it?

I don't even know when it started

I just know that in my life

it never happened

The first time that I really say

“I love you”.

La la la...

In my eyes,

in my thoughts,

in every instant of my life,

always next to me.

But how did you

make my life a thing of yours

turn time into a wait

to see you again.

The first time I really say

I love you, I love you, I love you.
