Che cosa c'è
Gino Paoli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
c'è che mi sono innamorato di te
c'è che ora non mi importa niente
di tutta l'altra gente
di tutta quella gente che non sei tu
che cosa c'è
c'è che mi sono innamorato di te
e il mondo mi appartiene
il mondo mio che è fatto solo di te
come ti amo
non posso spiegarti
non so cosa sento per te
ma se tu mi guardi
negli occhi un momento
puoi capire anche da te
che cosa c'è
c'è che mi sono innamorato di te
c'è che io ora vivo bene
se solo stiamo insieme
se solo ti ho vicino:
ecco che c'è
