Claudio Baglioni casa in costruzione

Select language to translate this lyric

The flame of a match in the night
The amazed eyes
Breathe slowly... slowly...
Follow the cigarette smoke
Reflections on the asphalt...
A dog barks in vain
Lying against the walls
(too many times you swear...)
Of this house under construction
(then I'll catch you in the end! ...)
Two headlights emerge from the darkness
(tell me... but where were you? ...)
Counting the stars
One by one
(what is it over there? ... can you feel it too? ...)
Talk about strange stories
Of witches and gone loves
The stairs illuminated by the moon
(come up here... I'll pick you up...)
Play hide and seek
And rest in each other's arms
A sudden shiver
(you say it if I weigh you down... )
Speak softly for fear of the echo
(pretend it's a good game)
The smell of grass dream by chance
(pretend that I'm marrying you)< br/>A bed, a wardrobe
Three or four chairs
The radio, a mirror, a chest of drawers
The curtains, a sofa, a carpet, a fireplace
The colored paper on the wall
>(but that's not true...)
Close your eyes
And don't think about anything
(I don't know your name anymore?! ...)
And a memory comes back
And it escapes in a moment...
Understanding how long it is
Even an instant
(my God what is it ¨... what is life? ...)
The face offered to the rain
And dried by the wind
The hands further away
(why are you looking up in the sky? ...)
And a name a hundred and thousand times
(do you want to see that I fly ...)
Lost in a house under construction
(don't leave me alone ...)
