Sentivo Le Ali
Levante Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vai, vai e non tornare mai, mai
Presto si è fatto tardi
Ho corso incontro a nuovi sguardi
La prima vera volta non si scorda mai, mai

Penso che ho perso gli anni
A preoccuparmi dei tuoi sguardi
E adesso so guardarmi anche da sola

Sola

Sentivo le ali
Sospesa nell'idea che non mi ami
E non arriverà mai domani
Resto o me ne vado
E se non torni non avrò paura

Esco dai labirinti
Forse il tempo degli istinti
Estinti prima di essere esistiti, mai mai

Riesco ad andare avanti
Senza il peso dei rimpianti
So camminare a un palmo da te, ora, ora

Sentivo le ali
Sospesa nell'idea che non mi ami
E non arriverà mai domani
Resto o me ne vado
E se non torni non avrò paura

Sentivo le ali
Sospesa nell'idea che non mi ami
E non arriverà mai domani
Resto o me ne vado

E se non torni non avrò paura

Presto, si è fatto tardi
Ho corso incontro a nuovi sguardi
La prima vera volta non si scorda
Mai, mai
