Riproviamoci
Let's give it another try
Per pochissimo
For just a little bit
Con un poco di sincerità
With a touch of sincerity
Riproviamoci
Let's give it another try
Basta metterci
We just need to put in
Solo un po' di volontà
A bit of willpower
Tu mi dici che sto bene
You tell me that I'm fine
Io non ce la faccio più
I can't take it anymore
A immaginarti insieme a lei
Imagining you with her
Ma che amica tu ci stai
But what kind of friend are you
(Mi è stata molto vicino)
(She has been very close to me)
E che diavolo ci fai
And what the hell are you doing
(S'è fatta amare pian, piano)
(She's learned to love slowly)
Che ne sa dei fatti tuoi
What does she know about your business
Che ne sa delle mie mani
What does she know about my hands
Quando volano su te
When they fly over you
(È dura ricominciare)
(It's hard to begin again)
Quando gridi insieme a me
When you scream together with me
(Potremmo ancora sbagliare)
(We could still make mistakes)
E che il figlio che tu vuoi
And that the child you want
Lo vuoi da me
Do you want it from me
Riproviamoci
Let's try again
Sono un'altra, sai
I'm someone else, you know
Non mi trucco neanche più
I don’t even put on makeup anymore
Non mi sento con gli amici
I don't feel connected with friends
Non ci credi, ma è così
You don’t believe it, but it's true
Quell'altro l'ho mandato via
I sent the other one away
Ma che centra lei con noi
But what does she have to do with us
(Non sei cambiata per niente)
(You haven't changed at all)
E che diavolo ci fai
And what the hell are you doing here
(Lo sai che non è importante)
(You know it's not important)
Che ne sa dei fatti tuoi
What does he know about your affairs
Che ne sa delle mie mani
What does he know about my hands
Quando volano su te
When they soar over you
(Quando ci faccio l'amore)
(When I make love to you)
Quando gridi insieme a me
When you scream along with me
(Non so provare piacere)
(I don't know how to feel pleasure)
Per forza tu sei nato mio
Of course, you were born to be mine
Che ne sa delle mie mani
What does he know about my hands
Quando volano su te
When they soar over you
(Quando ci faccio l'amore)
(When I make love)
Na nana nana nana
(Non so provare piacere)
(I don't know how to feel pleasure)
Na nana nana nanà
Che ne sa delle mie mani
What does she know about my hands
