Back to songs

When I drive, I like to browse radio channels and stop when I hear a song I like. A couple of days ago I just happened to hear and Italian song by Tiziano Ferro that gave me goose bumps listening. So I went checking on youtube and found it. Listen here and below there are the lyrics in original (Italian) and my translation beside (English).
I also got the whole album where this song is "Nessuno e solo" and it is pretty good. I like "Stop!Dimentica", "E Raffaella e mia", "Baciano le donne". Cool guy :)


Tiziano Ferro: "Ed Ero Contentissimo"(And I was very happy)

Ora che sarai un po' sola
Tra il lavoro e le lenzuola
Presto dimmi tu come farai ?
Ora che tutto va a caso
Ora non sono più un peso
Dimmi quali scuse inventerai ?

Inventerai che non hai tempo
Inventerai che tutto è spento
Inventerai che ora ti ami un po' di più
Inventerai che ora sei forte
E chiuderai tutte le porte
Ridendo troverai una scusa
Una in più..

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo...
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva...
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora

Qualche cosa ti consola
Con gli amici il tempo vola
Ma qualcosa che non torna c' è
C' è che ho freddo e non mi copro
C' è che tanto prima o dopo
Convincendoti ci crederai

Ci crederai che fa più caldo
Da quando non mi hai ormai più accanto
E forse è meglio
perché sorridi un po' di po' di più
un po' di più...

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo...
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva...
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora
Ancora

E il mio ricordo ti verrà a trovare quando starai troppo male
Quando invece starai bene resterò a guardare
Perché ciò che ho sempre chiesto al cielo
È che questa vita ti donasse gioia e amore vero
E in fondo

Ed ero contentissimo in ritardo sotto casa ed io che ti aspettavo
Stringimi la mano e poi partiamo...
In fondo eri contentissima quando guardando Amsterdam non ti importava
della pioggia che cadeva...
solo una candela era bellissima
e il ricordo del ricordo che ci suggeriva
che comunque tardi o prima ti dirò
che ero contentissimo
ma non te l'ho mai detto che chiedevo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora

Ed ero contentissimo ma non te l' ho mai detto
E dentro urlavo
Dio ancora
Ancora
Ancora




Now that you'll be a little lonely
Between work and blankets
Tell me quick how would you do it?
Now that everything goes
Now that I don't bother you
Tell me what excuses will you make up?

You will make up that you don't have time
You will make up that all is off
You will make up that now you are loved more
You will make up that you are stronger
And you'll close all the doors
Smiling you'll find an excuse
Another one...

And I was very happy when late by your house I was waiting
take my hand and let's go...
Deep down you were very happy when looking Amsterdam and didn't care
of the falling rain...
only a candle was beautiful
and the memory of the memory that was suggesting
that however later or sooner I would tell you
that I was very happy
but i never told you that I was asking
God for more
More
More

Some things give you comfort
With friends the time flies
But there is something that doesn't return
Is that I'm cold but I don't cover
Is that sooner or later
Convinced you will believe it

You will believe that will warmer
Since you don't have me beside
And maybe is better
because you will smile a little more
a little more

And I was very happy when late by your house I was waiting
take my hand and let's go...
Deep down you were very happy when looking Amsterdam and didn't care
of the falling rain...
only a candle was beautiful
and the memory of the memory that was suggesting
that however later or sooner I would tell you
that I was very happy
but i never told you that I was asking
God for more
More
More

And the memory of me will come to find you when you'll feel blue
But when you will feel good I will just look at you
Because I have always asked the sky
That this life gives you joy and real love
Deep down

And I was very happy when late by your house I was waiting
take my hand and let's go...
Deep down you were very happy when looking Amsterdam and didn't care
of the falling rain...
only a candle was beautiful
and the memory of the memory that was suggesting
that however later or sooner I would tell you
that I was very happy
but i never told you that I was asking
God for more
More
More

And I was very happy but I never told you
And inside I was screaming to
God for more
More
More
