La condanna
Ennio Morricone Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Reviving memories of our happy home
No sign of sunlight since you ran away
These rooms get darker now every day
Even though I have broken
Even though I have broken your heart
Will you still love me?
The consequences of freedom
But now you have what you dreamed
Just understand that things are not as they seem
Even though I have broken
Even though I have broken your heart
Will you still love me?
Will you still love me?
I don't wanna be lonely
Because you're not there for me to be
I don't wanna be lonely
I wanna be loved
Even though I have broken
Even though I have broken your heart
Will you still love me?
Will you still love me?
The lyrics of Ennio Morricone's song "Dopo la condanna" convey a sense of longing and yearning for a lost love.
