Dimmi Perché
883 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

In mezzo al traffico non resisto più, sarebbe bello se
La ragazza dell'auto accanto si fosse innamorata di me
Mi manda un bacio, io le sorrido sicuramente ci sta
Poi il semaforo verde dice che il sogno è finito già

Nei negozi del centro io mi innamoro e non so perché
Le commesse son tanto belle che io le voglio tutte per me
Così compro qualsiasi cosa per stare con loro ma poi
Al momento del conto mi rendo conto che sono guai

Sogni sempre, sogni non è questa la realtà
Ma mi piace anche se so che il sogno non si avvererà
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché

Non capisco perché non sono come quelli della pubblicità
Hanno case stupende e fanno sempre tutto ciò che gli va
Ogni volta che passo davanti allo specchio io penso che
Se fossi anche io come loro le donne sognerebbero di stare con me

Sogni sempre, sogni non è questa la realtà
Ma mi piace anche se so che il sogno non si avvererà
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché

Sogni sempre, sogni non è questa la realtà
Ma mi piace anche se so che il sogno non si avvererà
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché




Dimmi perché, dimmi perché
Dimmi perché, dimmi perché

Overall Meaning

In the song "Dimmi perchè" by 883, the singer expresses a sense of longing and desire for a romantic connection amidst the chaos of everyday life. The lyrics convey a feeling of yearning as the singer imagines a scenario where the girl in the car next to him falls in love with him, symbolizing a desire for love and connection in a seemingly mundane situation. However, this dream is quickly shattered as the green traffic light signifies the end of the fantasy and the return to reality. This juxtaposition of fantasy and reality sets the tone for the rest of the song.


The singer further delves into his romantic fantasies as he visits shops in the city center, where he finds himself falling in love with the beautiful shop assistants. He buys things just to be close to them, only to realize the futility of his actions when faced with the reality of payment. This highlights a theme of unattainable desires and the inability to escape the harsh realities of life, despite seeking solace in fleeting moments of imagined romance and connection.


The lyrics also touch upon feelings of inadequacy and comparison to the idealized images portrayed in advertisements. The singer wonders why he can't be like those in the commercials who seemingly have perfect lives and effortlessly get what they want. This self-doubt and longing for acceptance reflect a deeper emotional struggle within the singer, as he grapples with his own perceived shortcomings and desires for an idealized version of himself that could attract women's attention.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asks the question "Dimmi perché" (Tell me why), emphasizing the singer's continuous search for answers to his inner turmoil and unfulfilled desires. Despite acknowledging that his dreams may never come true and that reality often falls short of fantasy, there is a bittersweet acceptance in the singer's longing for something more, for a connection that seems just out of reach. The repetition of this question throughout the lyrics underscores the theme of questioning one's circumstances and seeking understanding amidst the complexities of love, desire, and reality.
