Sensi Lyrics in English Anna Tatangelo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sensi by Anna Tatangelo from Italian to English.
Soddisfatto, gli occhi di un gatto
Satisfied, the eyes of a cat
Che adesso guardano me
That now watch me
Qui nel letto come un sospetto
Here in bed like a suspicion
Cosa farò senza te?
What'll I do without you?
Questa stanza non può trattenerti però
This room can't keep you, though
C'è del fuoco
There's fire
Questo essere noi ogni volta che vuoi
This being us whenever you want
Dura poco
Doesn't last long
Ma ricomincia il gioco!
But the game starts again!
Prendimi con l'olfatto con il tatto
Take me with scent, with touch
Con le tue bugie
With your lies
Mangiami ma con gusto
Eat me but with gusto
Esaudisco le tue fantasie
I grant your fantasies
Non c'è una parte di me che risista
There's no part of me that resists
Al tuo essere artista egoista
Your being a selfish artist
Mi chiedo se fai una proposta
I wonder if you make an offer
Se giochi e poi basta
If you play and then stop
Comunque mi fido degli occhi
Still I trust the eyes
Dei tuoi occhi come specchi
Your eyes like mirrors
Che guardano me
That watch me
Vai di fretta, c'è chi ti aspetta
You're in a hurry, someone's waiting
Ed io rimango con me
And I stay with myself
La tua voce quasi una croce
Your voice, almost a cross
Mi dice 'tempo non c'è'
Tells me 'there's no time'
Ma la mia verità ricomincia da qua
But my truth starts again from here
Sono sola
I'm alone
La passione che c'è
The passion that's here
È qualcosa che poi mi divora
Is something that then devours me
Ma certo non consola
But sure it doesn't comfort
Prendimi con l'olfatto con il tatto
Take me with scent, with touch
Con le tue bugie
With your lies
Mangiami ma con gusto
Eat me but with gusto
Perché il resto sono fantasie
Because the rest are fantasies
Non c'è una parte di me che risista
There's no part of me that resists
Al tuo essere artista egoista
Your being a selfish artist
Mi chiedo se c'è una risposta
I wonder if there's an answer
Se giochi e poi basta
If you play and then stop
Comunque mi fido
Still I trust
Te ne vai soddisfatto come un gatto
You leave satisfied like a cat
Senza fantasie
Without fantasies
E non sai quanto male fanno al cuore
And you don't know how much they hurt the heart
Queste tue bugie
These lies of yours

SONG MEANING

Sensi plunges us into a whirlwind romance where touch, taste, smell, and sight eclipse logic. Anna Tatangelo sings from the point of view of a woman who is irresistibly drawn to a cat-eyed lover: he charms her with sweet lies, devours her attention “with gusto,” then slips away just as quickly. Each encounter feels like a fiery game, brief yet addictive, and she keeps playing even though she knows he is a selfish “artista.” The senses scream, the heart pleads, and reason stands helpless on the sidelines.

The song captures that bittersweet moment when passion and disappointment collide. While her partner leaves fully “satisfied like a cat,” she is left alone in a silent room, replaying his empty promises and questioning whether any of it was real. “Sensi” becomes a daring confession of how powerful physical attraction can override caution, hide the pain of deceit, and keep us trapped in a loop of pleasure and heartache.
