Primavera
Riccardo Cocciante Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

E solcherò il tuo corpo
Come se fosse terra
Cancellerò quei segni
Dell'ultima tua guerra

E brucerò col fuoco
Quest'erba tua cattiva
E ti farò con l'acqua
Più fertile e più viva

E pregherò che il sole
Asciughi questo pianto
E pregherò che il tempo
Guarisca le ferite

Poi costruirò una serra
Intorno al tuo sorriso
Farò della tua vita
Un altro paradiso

Sarò il tuo contadino
E tu la terra mia
Combatterò col vento
Che non ti porti via

Poi spargerò il mio seme
Nella tua verde valle
E aspetteremo insieme




Che venga primavera
Che venga primavera
