Translation of Marco Mengoni's San Remo winning song: Due Vite


We are the only ones awake in the whole universe
And I don't know your desert well yet
Maybe it's in a place in my heart
Where the sun is always off
Where sometimes I lose you
But if I want I'll catch you


We are stuck in a time like this
Which lifts the streets
With the sky one step away from here
We are the monsters and the fairies
I should phone you
Tell you the things I feel
But I've run out of excuses
And I have no more defences


We are a book on the floor
In an empty house
That looks like our own
Coffee with lemon
Against the hangover
You look like a blurred photo


And we screwed up one more night
Outside a club
And thank goodness


If this is the last
Song and then the moon explodes
I'll be there to tell you you're wrong, you're wrong and you know it
The music doesn't come here
And you don't sleep
And where will you be, where are you going
When life then exaggerates
All the runs and slaps, the mistakes you make
When something upsets you
And I know that you never sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, never sleep
What turns two lives take


We are the only ones awake in the whole universe
Shouting a little rage above a roof
That no one feels like this
That no one watches movies anymore
The flowers in your room
My metallic shirt


We are a book on the floor
In an empty house
That looks like our own
Lost among people
How many words
Without ever an answer


And we screwed up one more night
Outside a club
And thank goodness


If this is the last
Song and then the moon will explode
I'll be there to tell you you're wrong, you're wrong and you know it
The music doesn't come here
And you don't sleep
And where will you be, where are you going
When life then exaggerates
All the running and slapping, the mistakes you make
When something upsets you


And I know you don't sleep anyway
You turn off the light even if you don't like it
We remain in the dark surrounded
Only by the sound of the voice
Beyond the madness that dances in all things
Two lives, look at the mess


If this is the last
Song and then the moon explodes
I'll be there to tell you you're wrong, you're wrong and you know it
The music doesn't come here
And I know that you never sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, never sleep
What turns two lives take

I'm asking sincerely. Does anyone else other than the Italians write modern poetic songs like this? If there are link me to their music, because I want to listen to it.

… Griko song from Calabria, … in Salento :)

 
RIP Raquel Welch. All of that and she could sing too.

 
Alison Krauss singing Vince Gill's song and he does the harmony. The only think that disappointed me was that he didn't play more guitar. He's an absolute master, as well as being a great singer. Alison is pitch perfect every time; a beautifully "pure" voice.

One of the things I love about America which is unique, is Country Music by greats like these.

 
Don’t play that song …

 
My favorite "Country" genre is Blue Grass. Best compilation is the sound track to the film "O Brother Where Art Thou", with George Clooney.

Here is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite Blue Grass groups:
