LYRICS GAME

You'll have your father's eyes

And his melancholy

The timeless silence that pervades

The tide at sunset

You'll arrive with the September moon

That'll pour its milk into me

And I'll love you

As happens in fairy tales, forever

I'll wait for you

Without going away

The way swallows already do in the air

In my land

That grows old, but

On the wake of another age, dancing it dreams

While the gentle light of the east

At dawn lights up hopes and broom flowers

And the sky's so sky-blue

Sky-blue

You'll have books, sandals and pails

Shining 'amarcord'

Your hair will be black like mine

But in a moment, I know, you'll fly away

Toward the far-off island of a city

The way I once did too

My love

Because the sun can forget the moon

I'll wait for you

And sooner or later

You'll arrive without even making a sound

I'll feel you

And you'll stay

While by now the leaves are changing color

To my town you still don't know

Where autumn smells of roasted chestnuts

And the sky's so sky-blue

Like the breath of life

That throws the shutters wide open too

And invites you to smile

Even when you don't want to

This wind in love

That you'll breathe too

That you'll breathe

And then I'll have the courage to wait for you a bit more

And I promise you'll see from the windows

A sky so sky-blue

Sky-blue

A sky so sky-blue
