La Mia Città Lyrics in English Emma

Home / Lyrics Translation / Emma / La Mia Città

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Mia Città by Emma from Italian to English.

I hate rushing

The noises, the fog, the hanging time

Of this city

I hate high-heeled shoes

That I absentmindedly wedge into intrusive drains

Of this city

I hate myself in the mirror not for the flaw

But for stupidity

I love hanging out knowing I'll always come back

To this city

And tell me if there's a sense to time

To my useless wandering

And tell me if there really is a destination

Or do I have to run for happiness

And I run run forward and go back

I escape I want I take and tremble

I hold your breath tight

And I think of myself that I have no brake I push hard I don't fear you

I want everything I want you

I want you, I want you, I want you

I love downtown traffic, parking absentmindedly

Your smile, my instability

I love being offensive without even an excuse making peace in the evening

Turn off the city

And I love myself for this for egocentrism

Without rationality

I love teasing you knowing I'll always come back

To my city

And tell me if there's a sense to time

To my useless wandering

And tell me if there really is a destination

Or do I have to run for happiness

And I run run forward and go back

I escape I want I take and tremble

I hold your breath tight

And I think of myself that I have no brake I push hard I don't fear you

I want everything, I want you

I want you, I want you, I want you

And tell me if you want it

And tell me you're not

Just a confused reflection that I look at at the bottom of us

And I run run forward and go back

I escape I want I take and tremble

I hold your breath tight

And I think of myself that I have no brake I push hard I don't fear you

I want everything I want you

I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you
