Voglia di stringersi e poi
Desire to hold on tight and then
Vino bianco, fiori e vecchie canzoni
White wine, flowers, and old songs
E si rideva di noi
And we laughed about us
Che imbroglio era
What a mess it was
Maledetta primavera
Cursed springtime
Che resta di un sogno erotico se
What remains of an erotic dream if
Al risveglio è diventato un poeta
Upon waking, it turned into a poet
Se a mani vuote di te
If with empty hands of you
Non so più fare
I no longer know how to do
Come se non fosse amore
As if it weren't love
Se per errore
If by mistake
Chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
I close my eyes and think of you
Se per innamorarmi ancora
If to fall in love again
Tornerai, maledetta primavera
You'll return, cursed springtime
Che imbroglio se
What a mess if
Per innamorarmi basta un'ora
To fall in love is enough in just an hour
Che fretta c'era
What was the rush
Maledetta primavera
Cursed springtime
Che fretta c'era
What was the rush
Se fa male solo a me
If it hurts only me
Che resta dentro di me
What remains inside of me
Di carezze che non toccano il cuore
Of caresses that don't touch the heart
Stelle, una sola ce n'è
Stars, there's only one
Che mi può dare
That can give me
La misura di un amore
The measure of a love
Se per errore
If by mistake
Chiudi gli occhi e pensi a me
You close your eyes and think of me
Se per innamorarmi ancora
If to fall in love again
Tornerai, maledetta primavera
You'll return, cursed spring
Che importa se
What does it matter if
Per innamorarsi basta un'ora
To fall in love, an hour is all it takes
Che fretta c'era
What was the rush about
Maledetta primavera
Cursed springtime
Che fretta c'era
What was the rush about
Maledetta come te
Cursed just like you
Lasciami fare
Let me handle it
Come se non fosse amore
As if it weren’t love
Ma per errore
But by mistake
Chiudi gli occhi e pensa a me
Close your eyes and think of me
Che importa se
What does it matter if
Per innamorarsi basta un'ora
To fall in love, just an hour is enough
Che fretta c'era
What hurry was there
Maledetta primavera
Cursed springtime
Che fretta c'era
What hurry was there
Lo sappiamo io e te
You and I both know it
Maledetta primavera
Cursed springtime
