Dammi Un Motivo Lyrics in English by CoCo
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dammi Un Motivo by CoCo from Italian to English.
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Dammi un motivo per odiarti
Give me a reason to hate you
Dammi un motivo che non c'è
Give me a reason that isn't there
Dicevi: 'Non sei come gli altri'
You used to say: "You're not like the others"
E cosa siamo adesso?
And what are we now?
Non è facile parlare con te se non sai cosa vuoi mai
It's not easy talking to you if you never know what you want
Non capisco se resti qui per me o non vuoi perdere ma
I don't understand if you're staying here for me or you don't want to lose, but
Dammi un motivo per odiarti
Give me a reason to hate you
Dammi un motivo che non ho
Give me a reason that I don't have
Dammi un motivo che mi basti
Give me a reason that's enough for me
A non cercarti per un po'
To not look for you for a while
E non dirmi che sei fragile, so che fingi
And don't tell me you're fragile, I know you're faking
Dovrei andarmene ma so dirti
I should leave but all I can tell you is
Solamente che
Only that
A volte ti amo ma non ti odio mai
Sometimes I love you but I never hate you
Oh, ti ho sempre messa al primo posto, eh
Oh, I've always put you first, eh
Anche quando non c'era posto, seh
Even when there wasn't room, seh
E guarda dove siamo adesso, seh
And look where we are now, seh
Siamo una foto che non posto, eh
We're a photo I don't post, eh
Scrivo messaggi che poi elimino, seh
I write messages that I then delete, seh
Mi hai fatto diventare cinico, ma
You made me cynical, but
Rischiare per avere il minimo, eh
To risk to get the minimum, eh
Come fare l'amore in bilico
Like making love on the edge
Non posso stare qui ad aspettare che tu decida per noi
I can't stay here waiting for you to decide for us
Farsi del male per poi tornare dove eravamo migliori
Hurting ourselves to then return to where we were better
Lasciarsi andare senza pensare a come restare da soli
Letting go without thinking about how to stay alone
Che forse è meglio per noi
Maybe it's better for us
Dammi un motivo per odiarti
Give me a reason to hate you
Dammi un motivo che non ho
Give me a reason that I don't have
Dammi un motivo che mi basti
Give me a reason that's enough for me
A non cercarti per un po'
To not look for you for a while
E non dirmi che sei fragile, so che fingi
And don't tell me you're fragile, I know you're faking
Dovrei andarmene ma so dirti
I should leave but all I can tell you is
Solamente che
Only that
A volte ti amo ma non ti odio mai
Sometimes I love you but I never hate you

Did you like this lyrics translation?
bilico — balance / precarious position
Bilico means 'balance' or 'precarious position'. It's a less common word that evokes a strong visual and emotional image.
In the song, CoCo sings, "Come fare l'amore in bilico" (Like making love in a precarious position). This metaphor beautifully captures the instability and risk in the relationship, suggesting a love that is fragile and on the verge of falling apart. It's a poetic way to describe a love that feels uncertain and dangerous.
