TESTO
The girl on the terrace
hidden behind the flowers and terracotta vases
She looks down all the faces
And all the world that flows like the river on the ground
That guy who passes every Sunday
She wants to invite him to go up
And talk about the life she spent
And about a life to write with him
But the voice is strangled no sound goes out a petal falling over his head
And she wants to know his name
And she wants to touch his face
And she wants to pass the days… with him… with him
She is writing her first book
That tells about her secret love
One day her work will be a success
But that boy will never know the truth
A life lived without love will not be nourished by her fame
The final page is close to end
But his heart remains to be repaired
And she wants to know his name (…to know his name)
And she wants to touch his face (…to touch his face)
And she wants to pass the days (…to pass the days)
With him… with him
And now that she's grown old
So famous and alone
And all her written words of love
On the shelves of the bookstores
She still wonders if they will be read
By that boy who was passing by
The terrace now is filled with
Empty terracotta vases
And she wanted to know his name
And she wanted to touch his face
And she wanted to pass the days
With him
With him
