Io lavoro e penso a te
I work and think of you
Torno a casa e penso a te
I return home and think of you
Gli telefono e intanto penso a te
I call him and in the meantime think of you
Come stai e penso a te
How are you and I think of you
Dove andiamo e penso a te
Where are we going and I think of you
Gli sorrido abbasso gli occhi e penso a te
I smile at him, lower my eyes, and think of you
Non so con chi adesso sei
I don't know who you're with now
Non so che cosa fai
I don't know what you're doing
Ma so di certo a cosa stai pensando
But I surely know what you're thinking about
È troppo grande la città
The city is too big
Per due che come noi
For two like us
Non sperano però si stan cercando
Who don’t hope but are searching instead
Scusa è tardi e penso a te
Sorry it's late and I’m thinking of you
Mi accompagni e penso a te
Will you walk with me and I think of you
Non sono stata divertente e penso a te
I haven’t been fun and I think of you
Sono al buio e penso a te
I’m in the dark and I think of you
Chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
I close my eyes and I think of you
Io non dormo e penso a te
I can't sleep and I think of you
Non so con chi adesso sei
I don’t know who you’re with now
Non so che cosa fai
I don’t know what you’re doing
Ma so di certo a cosa stai pensando
But I know for sure what you're thinking
È troppo grande la città
The city is too big
Per due che come noi
For two like us
Non sperano però si stan cercando
Who aren't hoping but are looking for each other
Scusa è tardi e penso a te
Sorry, it's late and I'm thinking of you
Mi accompagni e penso a te
You accompany me and I'm thinking of you
Non sono stata divertente e penso a te
I haven't been fun and I'm thinking of you
Sono al buio e penso a te
I'm in the dark and I'm thinking of you
Chiudo gli occhi e penso a te
I close my eyes and I'm thinking of you
Io non dormo e penso a te
I'm not sleeping and I'm thinking of you
