A Mezzanotte Meno Dieci
Germano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Che come al solito non ho programmi
Ti scrivo in fretta, ma non troppo
Sono le 23:50 e ho poca voglia di vederti
Sprofondo tra i cuscini del divano e non penso a te
Ma che a minuti, solo dieci, è già domani
Tu mi rispondi molto tardi per confondere le idee
È ancora il caso di berci quel bicchiere
Per lamentarci un po' e vedere che succede
Ma dividilo ancora per un attimo il cuscino
E raccontarci storie buffe che vorremmo non riviviere più
Aspettando insieme in una camera il mattino
Con le persiane chiuse per abbracciarci un po'
Scendiamo insieme stanchi per fare colazione
Un cappuccino ed un cornetto in due
Le strade sono piene di persone indaffarate
Come noi non siamo solo in due
A sentirsi per condividere un bicchiere
Per lamentarci un po' e vedere che succede
A dividere ancora per un attimo il cuscino
E raccontarsi storie buffe che vorremmo non rivivere più
Aspettando insieme in una camera il mattino
Con le persiane chiuse per abbracciarci un po'
Con le persiane chiuse per abbracciarsi un po'
The lyrics of Germano's song "A Mezzanotte Meno Dieci" depict a sense of ambivalence and detachment in a relationship. The singer is seeking inspiration by watching television, indicating a lack of stimulation and direction in their life. They mention writing to someone quickly but without much enthusiasm because it is almost midnight and they are not motivated to see the person. The imagery of sinking into the couch cushions and not thinking about the other person portrays a feeling of indifference and disconnection.
The lyrics continue to describe a communication dynamic where the other person responds late to confuse the singer's thoughts and give themselves time to consider if meeting up is still worth it. There is a contemplation about whether it is still necessary to have a drink together to vent and see what happens, suggesting unresolved issues or tensions in the relationship.
The mention of sharing funny stories that they would rather not relive again indicates a desire to move past past difficulties or conflicts. The imagery of waiting together in a room for morning to come, closing the shutters to embrace each other, and going downstairs tired to have breakfast together highlights a sense of intimacy and routine in the relationship, despite any underlying issues.
The repetition of the phrase "with the shutters closed to embrace each other a little" suggests a longing for closeness and intimacy, even amidst the busyness and impersonal nature of the outside world. Overall, the lyrics convey a complex mix of emotions, including apathy, confusion, nostalgia, and a yearning for connection and togetherness in a relationship that may be strained or uncertain.
