Le Tue Parole Fanno Male Lyrics in English by Cesare Cremonini
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Tue Parole Fanno Male by Cesare Cremonini from Italian to English.
Le tue parole fanno male
Your words hurt
Sono pungenti come spine
They're sharp like thorns
Sono taglienti come lame affilate
They're cutting like sharp blades
E messe in bocca alle bambine
And put in children's mouths
Possono far male
They can hurt
Possono ferire
They can wound
Farmi ragionare, sì
Make me think, yes
Ma non capire, non capire
But not understand, not understand
Le tue ragioni fanno male
Your reasons hurt
Come sei brava tu a colpire
How good you are at striking
Quante parole sai trovare
How many words you can find
Mentre io non so che dire
While I don't know what to say
Le tue parole sono mine
Your words are mines
Le sento esplodere in cortile
I hear them explode in the courtyard
Al posto delle margherite, ora
Instead of daisies, now
Ci sono cariche esplosive
There are explosive charges
Due lunghe e romantiche vite
Two long and romantic lives
Divise da queste rime
Divided by these rhymes
Le tue labbra stanno male, lo so
Your lips are hurting, I know
Non hanno labbra da mangiare
They don't have lips to feed on
Oh ma la fame d'amore la si può
Oh but the hunger for love can be
Curare, dannazione!
Cured, d*mn it!
Con le parole, sì, che fanno male
With words, yes, that hurt
Fanno sanguinare
They make you bleed
Ma non morire
But not die
Ah, le tue parole sono mine
Ah, your words are mines
Le sento esplodere in cortile
I hear them explode in the courtyard
Al posto delle margherite, ora
Instead of daisies, now
Ci sono cariche esplosive
There are explosive charges
Due lunghe e romantiche vite
Two long and romantic lives
Ah, due lunghe e romantiche vite
Ah, two long and romantic lives
Due lunghe e romantiche vite divise
Two long and romantic lives divided
Dalle parole
By the words
