Io ti guarderò
I will watch you
Illuminata con il neon delle vetrine
Lit up by the neon of shop windows
E poi ti nutrirò di Coca-Cola e di popcorn
And then I'll feed you Coca-Cola and popcorn
Dentro ad un cine
Inside a movie theater
Ti racconterò le mie bugie sul mondo
I'll tell you my lies about the world
E quelle sulla gente
And the ones about people
E poi ti bacerò
And then I'll kiss you
Con tutto quanto in fiamme
With everything in flames
E con le luci spente
And with the lights out
E faremo l'amore
And we'll make love
Dentro ad un temporale
Inside a storm
Tra le luci del centro
Among the lights of the city
Tra le statue di sale
Among the statues of salt
Con il cuore impazzito
With a heart gone wild
Come due innamorati
Like two lovers
Come due innamorati
Like two lovers
Senza niente da fare
With nothing to do
Che non hanno nient'altro
Who have nothing else
Che una storia d'amore
But a love story
