The Rest
Lorenzo Fragola Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I try to understand
These things that I don't
You tryna make me stand on my own
But hands were build for hands
If there's one thing I know
Well if time can heal
She brings the rest
And if eyes bring sight
And my god brought life
She brought the rest
Tell me how you get through these nights
Without the promise of her love
Keeping you blind
Tell me how you know that you're right
And pictures are enough
To keep fooling your eyes
You know cause I yeah
Well if time can heal
And my hands bring feel
She brings the rest
And if eyes bring sight
And your god brought light
She brought the rest
Well if time can heal
My hands bring feel
She brings the rest
And if eyes bring sight
And my god brought life
She brought the rest
Well if time can heal
My hands bring feel
She brings the rest
And if eyes bring sight
And your god brought life
She brought the rest

Finalmente un italiano che canta in inglese come se fosse madrelingua
Brugklas TV
Actually he doesn't. For example how he says 'hands', he says more like 'ands'. And also other words are spoken in an Italian way, like 'brought'.
Sauce Sonriente
+tip host , mi chiedo se in UK o in USA abbiano davvero bisogno che qualcuno vada lì a cantare nella loro lingua. Forse scarseggiano di cantanti nativi? Boh...me lo chiedo.
