Cuore Di Cane Lyrics in English by Cesare Cremonini
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cuore Di Cane by Cesare Cremonini from Italian to English.
C'è una strada che ci porta io e te, a stare insieme
There's a road that takes you and me, to be together
Non importa dove porta
It doesn't matter where it leads
So che c'è, per stare insieme
I know it's there, to be together
È una mano, che sa cos'è meglio per l'altra
It's a hand that knows what's best for the other
Ma vuole sbagliare
But it wants to make a mistake
È una scusa per questo mio cuore
It's an excuse for this heart of mine
Di cane
Of a dog
Si può essere più felici di così?
Can we be happier than this?
Solo questo vorrei chiederti
Only this I'd like to ask you
Si può essere più felici di così?
Can we be happier than this?
Ma chi siamo noi per perderci?
But who are we to lose each other?
Certe sere fanno male, chiamo te
Some evenings hurt, I call you
Per stare bene
To feel good
Dormi ancora? Esco a bere cosa c'è
Are you still sleeping? I'm going out to drink, what's up?
Restiamo insieme
Let's stay together
È una lacrima uscita al tramonto dagli occhi di un pianto
It's a tear that came out at sunset from crying eyes
Per farsi notare
To be noticed
È una scusa, per questo mio cuore di cane
It's an excuse for this heart of mine, of a dog
Si può essere più felici di così?
Can we be happier than this?
Solo questo vorrei chiederti
Only this I'd like to ask you
Si può essere più felici di così?
Can we be happier than this?
Ma chi siamo noi per perderci?
But who are we to lose each other?

cane — dog
Cane means "dog" in Italian. While it's a common word, its use in the phrase "cuore di cane" (dog's heart) is what makes it particularly interesting and unique in this song.
In Italian culture, a "cuore di cane" often implies a loyal, devoted, and perhaps a bit naive or easily hurt heart. It suggests an unconditional love, much like a dog's affection for its owner. This metaphorical use adds a layer of emotional depth to the lyrics, making it a memorable and evocative phrase.
