Ci svegliavi con un bacio e poi
You would wake us with a kiss and then
Te ne andavi a letto mentre noi
You’d go off to bed while we
Correvamo in quella scuola che
Were running in that school that
Ci dicevi "insegna a vivere"
You would say 'teach how to live'
Ma la vita l'hai insegnata tu
But you taught us life
Ogni giorno un po' di più
Every day a little more
Con quegli occhi innamorati tuoi
With those loving eyes of yours
Di due figlie matte come noi
Of two crazy daughters like us
Cosa non darei perché il tempo
What wouldn’t I give for time
Non ci invecchi mai
Not to age us ever
Ho imparato a cantare insieme a te
I learned to sing together with you
Nelle sere d'estate nei caffè
On summer evenings at the cafés
Ho imparato il mio coraggio
I learned my courage
E ho diviso la strada e l'allegria
And I shared the road and the joy
La tua forza la tua malinconia
Your strength, your melancholy
Ogni istante ogni miraggio
Every moment, every mirage
Per le feste tu non c'eri mai
You were never there for the celebrations
Mamma apriva i pacchi insieme a noi
Mom opened the gifts with us
Il lavoro ti portava via
Work took you away
La tua solitudine era mia
Your loneliness was mine
Cosa non farei per ridarti il tempo perso ormai
What wouldn't I do to give you back the time we've lost now
Ho imparato ad amare come te
I've learned to love just like you
Questa vita rischiando tutta me
This life, risking all of me
Ho imparato il tuo coraggio
I've learned your courage
E ho capito la timida follia
And I've understood the shy madness
Del tuo essere unico perché
Of your uniqueness, because
Sei la meta del mio viaggio per me
You are the destination of my journey for me
E' così
It's like that
Sempre di più
More and more
Somiglio a te
I resemble you
Nei tuoi sorrisi
In your smiles
E nelle lacrime
And in the tears
Ho imparato il tuo coraggio
I've learned your courage
E ho imparato ad amare e credere
And I've learned to love and believe
Nella vita rischiando tutta me
In life, risking all of myself
E ho diviso questo viaggio con te
And I've shared this journey with you
Io con te
Me with you
Ho imparato il mio coraggio
I've learned my courage
Mi risveglio in questa casa mia
I wake up in this house of mine
Penso a quando te ne andavi via
I think of when you were leaving
E anche adesso cosa non farei
And even now, what wouldn’t I do
Per ridarci il tempo perso ormai
To bring back the time we've lost by now
