Between a call and a headache
I let you slip away
We always run off in a rush
How ugly this frenzy is
Let me bring some light into the house
Today I don't even defend myself
Always the same mistakes
Where there used to be the sea now there's only mud
And it's like a waltz on a Sunday in the suburbs
Between the bells and the police sirens
There's a little girl hugging her mother
Who looks like mine
I feel like a mannequin in a shop window
This life doesn't taste like honey, maybe like aspirin
And I've tried to learn love
But it's always like this
I can't figure it out
What it is
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
The incense that wraps the room
Looks like city fog
A passing bus wakes me up
I think back to a few nights ago
When you screamed at me
"Kiddo, today I just don't get you"
You're always good at hurting
So many useless words in the wind
I still hear them
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
I tried to learn love
I tried to learn love
But it's stronger than me
And you, you seem more confused than me
And you, you said, "It's always like this"
And you, you still have a thousand questions
But they don't hurt anymore
And how long it takes
To hold each other at night
In the street even if it rains
Without ever asking
Without ever understanding
Without understanding
I gave you a piece of my heart
I take all the blame
Now that we've learned love
Now that we've learned love
I can't stop

SONG MEANING

Pezzo Di Cuore” feels like opening a heartfelt diary that has been scribbled in during sleepless nights. Emma and Alessandra Amoroso trade lines that paint everyday chaos: phone calls colliding with headaches, city sirens blending with church bells, and dreams that get muddy where the sea once glittered. In that rush, the singers confess how learning to love can feel as confusing as standing in a shop window like a mannequin, unsure if life tastes sweet like honey or bland like aspirin. They own their mistakes, hand over a piece of their heart, and wonder how long it takes to hug in the rain without questions, without explanations—just pure, imperfect connection.

By the second verse, incense smoke coils through a dim room, old arguments echo, and self-doubt resurfaces. Yet the song grows stronger, shifting from hurt to healing. When both voices unite, they admit that love’s lessons never really end, but the wounds sting less and the questions stop hurting. The chorus swells with determination: even if love is hard to understand, they have finally learned it and now they cannot stop. The result is an emotional pop ballad that turns vulnerability into power, reminding us that every misstep, every apology, and every rainy-street embrace is another page in the handbook of love.
