Genoa For Us
Genoa for us (Paolo Conte)
With that face a bit like this
that expression a bit like this< br/>that we have before going to Genoa
that we are never very sure
that the place where we go
will not swallow us up and we will never return
Yet we are relatives a little
of those people who are there
who deep down are like us, wild,
but how scary that dark sea makes us
that it also moves at night and never stays still.
Genoa for us
who live at the bottom of the countryside
and we rarely have the sun in the square
and the rest is rain that bathes us.
Genoa, I was saying, is an idea like any other
Ah, la la la la la la
But that face is a bit like that
that 'an expression a bit like this
that we have while we look at Genoa
and every time we smell it
and we move cautiously
we feel a little stray.
Macaia, monkey of light and madness,
mist, fish, Africa, sleep, nausea, fantasy ...
and meanwhile, in the shadows of their wardrobes
they keep linens and old lavender
let us return to our storms
Genoa's days are all the same.
In a still countryside
with the rain that drenches us
and the red prawns are a dream
br/>and the sun is a yellow flash at the parabrise...
With that slightly like this face
that slightly like this expression
that we have who have seen Genoa
that we are never very sure
that the place where we go
will not swallow us up and we will never return
