Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fiamme Negli Occhi by Coma_Cose from Italian to English.

When I'm near you I feel

That sometimes I lose my center of gravity

And I sway like a leaf

Actually like California

Half of me is a strong woman

Determined like good wine

Half a Venus de Milo

Trying to hug a man

And even if there's too many people here

I don't give a f*ck about others

I'll tell you anyway

Stay here one more minute

If winter is just a summer

That hasn't met you

And doesn't know how you mess me up

You've got flames in your eyes and in fact

If you look at me you burn me

When I'm near you I feel

That sometimes I lose my center of gravity

I float in a tub full of resentment

And you're the toaster that falls in

I grate your tears

I'll salt the pasta with them

I'll eat your melancholy

So maybe it'll pass for you

While you sway like a leaf

Actually like California

Stay here one more minute

If winter is just a summer

That hasn't met you

And doesn't know how you mess me up

You've got flames in your eyes and in fact

If you look at me you burn me

Stay here and burn me slowly

Like basil in the sun

On an Italian balcony

That doesn't know how you mess me up

You've got flames in your eyes and in fact

Outro

If you look at me you burn me

If you look at me you burn me, you burn me, you burn me

If you look you feel

baricentro — barycenter / center of gravity

Baricentro literally translates to "barycenter" or "center of gravity". It's a scientific term not commonly found in everyday conversation or song lyrics, making it quite unique and intriguing.

In this song, the artist uses baricentro metaphorically to express a feeling of losing balance and stability when near their loved one. The line "Quando ti sto vicino sento / Che a volte perdo il baricentro" (When I'm close to you I feel / That sometimes I lose my center of gravity) beautifully conveys the overwhelming and disorienting power of love.

“Fiamme Negli Occhi” (“Flames in Your Eyes”) is a whirlwind portrait of love that is so intense it tilts the entire world off its axis. The Italian duo Coma_Cose paint passion with playful, unexpected images: a lover who feels like California swaying, tears grated like cheese over pasta, winter that is really just a summer that never got to meet you. Every line says, When you’re near, I lose my balance, yet the singer clings to the heat in those burning eyes, begging, Resta qui ancora un minuto – Stay just one more minute.

Under the surface poetry lies a simple message: real love is messy, delicious, and a little dangerous. It can scorch like basil left too long in the sun, but it also flavors life with warmth and color. By mixing romantic devotion with everyday Italian imagery of balconies, wine, and kitchens, the song celebrates how extraordinary the ordinary can feel when seen through the fire of someone’s gaze. In short, “Fiamme Negli Occhi” is a soundtrack for anyone who has ever been happily singed by love’s fierce glow.
