Occhi Profondi Lyrics in English by Emma

Home / Lyrics translation / Emma / Occhi Profondi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Occhi Profondi by Emma from Italian to English.

Servirebbe avere occhi profondi, grandi

It would be necessary to have deep, big eyes

Come due polsi neri

Like two black wrists

Per buttarci dentro quello che vedi

To throw in what you see

E pure l'amore che non cedi

And also the love you don't give up

Servirebbe avere gli occhi profondi

It would be necessary to have deep eyes

Per imprigionare la tua assenza

To imprison your absence

Non lasciarla mai venire fuori

Never let it come out

Perché non diventi dipendenza

So it doesn't become an addiction

E' più bella questa città quando sale la luna

This city is more beautiful when the moon rises

Mentre dormono tutti già

While everyone is already asleep

Tutti tranne me

Everyone except me

Tutti tranne me

Everyone except me

Io mi scordo di dimenticarti

I forget to forget you

Non ho mai avuto occhi profondi

I've never had deep eyes

Sei negli occhi e via da lì non scendi

You're in the eyes and you don't come down from there

Come fai tu lo sai

How do you do it, you know

A restare in equilibrio e non cadere mai

To stay in balance and never fall

Questo vento che mi punge la pelle

This wind that pricks my skin

Sembra una carezza veloce

Feels like a quick caress

Io vorrei avere gli occhi profondi e larghi

I would like to have deep and wide eyes

Che ci si perde il mondo

Where the world gets lost

Per avere la certezza che presto o tardi

To have the certainty that sooner or later

Succeda per davvero

It will happen for real

E' più bella questa città quando sale la luna

This city is more beautiful when the moon rises

Mentre dormono tutti già

While everyone is already asleep

Tutti tranne me

Everyone except me

Io mi scordo di dimenticarti

I forget to forget you

Non ho mai avuto occhi profondi

I've never had deep eyes

Sei negli occhi e via da lì non scendi

You're in the eyes and you don't come down from there

Come fai tu lo sai

How do you do it, you know

A restarmi addosso se non ci sei mai

To stick with me if you're never there

Bridge

Ti ho visto odiare l'amore

I saw you hate love

Fare la guerra alle stelle

Wage war against the stars

Sognare senza pudore, finalmente poi

Dream shamelessly, then finally

Dormire

Sleep

Io ti ho coperto le spalle

I covered your back

Scoprendo tutto il mio cuore

Revealing all my heart

Ma un sogno non si può rifare

But a dream cannot be redone

Io mi scordo di dimenticarti

I forget to forget you

Sei, sei, sei Sei negli occhi e via da lì non scendi non scendi

You, you, you You're in the eyes and you don't come down from there, don't come down

Come fai tu lo sai a restare in equilibrio

How do you do it, you know, to stay in balance

Non ricordo di non ricordarti

I don't remember not remembering you

Sei negli occhi e via da lì non scendi

You're in the eyes and you don't come down from there

Inseparabili ma separati

Inseparable but separated

Come fai tu lo sai a restare in superficie

How do you do it, you know, to stay on the surface

Outro

E non sprofondi mai

And never sink

E non sprofondi mai

And never sink
