Song For A Friend
Song for a friend (Francesco Guccini)
The road ran long and straight
the fast car ran
The sweet summer had already begun there was death
that day waiting for you,
that day waiting for you.
You didn't know there was death
when you're young it's strange
being able to think that our fate
comes and takes us by the hand,
comes and takes us by the hand.
You didn't know it, but what did you think
when the The road went crazy
when the car went off the side
and it ended up on top of another,
and it ended up on top of another one.
You didn't know but what did you feel
when the crash killed you
when even the sky above collapsed
when life fled,
when life fled.
/>Afterwards only silence reigned
among the twisted sheets of metal
on the highway you were looking for life
but death met you,
but death met you.< br/>I would like to know what it was for
living, loving, suffering,
spending all your past days
if you had to leave soon,
if you had to leave soon .
But I want to remember how you were
to think that you still live
I want to think that you still listen to me
and that you smile like then,
and that you smile like then.
