Lamento Dello Sbronzo
Marlene Kuntz Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quando mi rivedrai cosi' ricco di fiducia?
Non la senti per me la campana che festeggia?

Viva la cecita' che il buon senso ti procura
vale la sordita' che ti fa battere il cuore

Quando mi rivedrai per te saro' sempre uguale e poi
due di me non li riusciresti a reggere

Meglio IO-CHE-TI-STUFO-DI-GHIGNATE

Ma ci conosciamo poco
Si', tu mi conosci poco
E quanto e' poco questo poco!

Sai decidere di farti due bicchieri qui con me
Puoi convincerti che farai solo quattro ciance
Ma non cercherai mai la sorgente delle lacrime

Quando mi rivedrai per te saro' sempre uguale e poi
due di me non li riusciresti a leggere
Meglio IO-CHE-TI-STUFO-DI-GHIGNATE

Vai, ora vai, che le ciance son finite

When you see me again, I will always be the same to you, but you won't be able to handle two of me. Better to have me, rather than getting tired of my fake smiles.

Ma ci conosciamo poco Si', tu mi conosci poco E quanto e' poco questo poco!
But we know each other very little. Yes, you know me very little. And how little this little is!

Sai decidere di farti due bicchieri qui con me Puoi convincerti che farai solo quattro ciance Ma non cercherai mai la sorgente delle lacrime
You can decide to have a couple of glasses with me. You can convince yourself that we'll just chat for a while. But you'll never look for the source of your tears.

Vai, ora vai, che le ciance son finite
Go now, go away, the chattering is finished.
