Non ho dormito stanotte

I didn't sleep tonight

Girano le farfalle rinchiuse in questa stanza

The butterflies enclosed in this room are swirling

E sono stato volgare

And I was vulgar

Il tuo letto è un abbraccio

Your bed is a hug

E sopra il tuo corpo cuoce

And on your body it burns

Entri dalla finestra insieme ai raggi del sole

You come in through the window with the sun's rays

Arriva il vento e una mattina

The wind arrives and one morning

Apro una strada infinita

I open an endless road

Che ti porta via, che ti porta via

That takes you away, that takes you away

Sparisci dietro una collina

You disappear behind a hill

Per il verde della campagna

Through the green of the countryside

Che ti porta via, che ti porta via

That takes you away, that takes you away

Ricordi

Remember

Che mi hai promesso che poi ritorni

That you promised me you'd come back

Come uno schiaffo dentro i miei sogni

Like a slap inside my dreams

Io non voglio un'altra vita

I don't want another life

Dimmi che non è finita adesso

Tell me it's not over now

Ricordi

Remember

Che mi hai promesso che poi ritorni

That you promised me you'd come back

Col mio riflesso dentro i tuoi occhi

With my reflection in your eyes

Non è più quello di prima

It's not like it was before

Ma non dirmi che, non dirmi che

But don't tell me that, don't tell me that

Non dirmi che è finita

Don't tell me it's over

Quanto è scomoda una domanda

How uncomfortable a question is

Se leggera non è, non è

If it's not light, it's not

Oggi son felice perché non fai la vittima

Today I'm happy because you don't play the victim

Oggi ti do il meglio di me

Today I give you the best of me

Perché è impossibile non volerti

Because it's impossible not to want you

Ti spaventi, ma mi aspetti

You get scared, but you wait for me

Sei un faro in mezzo al mare

You're a lighthouse in the middle of the sea

La luce prima di affondare

The light before sinking

Ti ricordi

Do you remember?

Che mi hai promesso che poi ritorni

That you promised me you'd come back

Come uno schiaffo dentro i miei sogni

Like a slap inside my dreams

Io non voglio un'altra vita

I don't want another life

Dimmi che non è finita adesso

Tell me it's not over now

Ricordi

Remember

Che mi hai promesso che poi ritorni

That you promised me you'd come back

Col mio riflesso dentro i tuoi occhi

With my reflection in your eyes

Non è più quello di prima

It's not like it was before

Ma non dirmi che, non dirmi che

But don't tell me that, don't tell me that

Non dirmi che è finita

Don't tell me it's over

Non sarà più come prima

It won't be like before

Ma non dirmi che, non dirmi che

But don't tell me that, don't tell me that

Non dirmi che è finita

Don't tell me it's over

farfalle — butterflies

Farfalle literally translates to "butterflies". While it might seem like a common word, its use here is particularly evocative and interesting.

In the song, Blanco sings about "Girano le farfalle rinchiuse in questa stanza" (The butterflies enclosed in this room are spinning). This isn't just about literal butterflies; it's a beautiful and poetic way to describe the nervous, fluttering feeling in his stomach, often associated with anxiety or intense emotion, especially in a confined space. This metaphorical usage makes the word stand out and adds a layer of depth to the lyrics.
