Difficile l'Amore
Maler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Difficile l′amore, difficile...
Il forte si fa fragile, il fragile infrangibile
Difficile l'amore, difficile
Nel battito che sale precipito
Adesso che rimangono manciate d′acqua scura
Adesso che vuoi cederla al primo che ti spara
La vita che la femmina ti ha reso così amara
Ricordati che disse Lulù Muso di Gatta
Che aveva il cuore a pezzi, però lo sguardo intatto
Ricorda lei ti disse: "...non vale nessun patto..."
Ricorda lei ti disse, ridendo poi d'un tratto...
Difficile l'amore, difficile...
Il forte si fa fragile, il fragile infrangibile
Difficile l′amore, difficile
Nel battito che sale precipito
E allora torni a Tangeri, ma Tangeri non torna
La sera che ricordi di te non si ricorda
E allora più ti volti e meno ti consola
Hai tutte le rivolte in una volta sola
Ma bada a quel che disse Lulù Muso di Gatta
Che aveva il cuore a pezzi, però lo sguardo intatto
Bada, lei ti disse: "...non vale nessun patto..."
Bada, lei ti disse, ridendo poi d′un tratto
Difficile l'amore, difficile...
Il forte si fa fragile,
Il fragile infrangibile
Difficile l′amore, difficile
Segreto d'animale magnifico.
