9 Primavere Lyrics in English Ermal Meta

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song 9 Primavere by Ermal Meta from Italian to English.
Nine springs, nine winters
Just as many summers
And after that, we were crazy about those autumns
Four houses, three moves
Three thousand four hundred days
The two of us
Books, good stories, I tell you things
You know, tonight
I don't feel like going out
Is cooking okay?
Even just a couple of spaghetti
If you make them the way you do
Alright
I'll be back late, go ahead and eat
You don't have to wait for me anymore
Turn off that light, love
It makes a hell of a noise
Maybe I'll get up, maybe I'll write
I've got a song in my head
Like a storm
That doesn't want to fall
They're just tears
And it's really nothing special
One for every step we took together
One for all those nights awake listening
Love songs
The ones that always make you feel bad
One for every little emotion
Your clothes in seven bags
And one more because
I love you
Movies, then pizza and beer
Walk toward home
How big this moon is
That looks like ours
Do you remember?
It was beautiful like you when you were a kid
Now you're a wonder
You say I have to take care of myself
Now that it's not the same
Now that everything's changed
But the only way I know to love myself
Is through you
Yeah, through you
They're just tears
And it's really nothing special
One for every step we took together
One for all those nights awake listening
Love songs
The ones that always make you feel bad
One for every little emotion
Your clothes in seven bags
To carry who knows where
Who knows where
You don't know it's raining
Because we're breaking up
Otherwise, you know, it wouldn't be raining this much
And these steel clouds make the sky disappear
You'll see it'll clear up again
Tomorrow it'll clear up again
They're just tears
It's just science and it can be explained
It's just a bit of water with salt
It's just a chance to sing softly
A love song
The kind that hurts like hell
But science can't explain it
There's nothing to get
They're tears because
I love you
Because I love you
I love you

SONG MEANING

Nine springs, nine winters, countless memories – "9 Primavere" is Ermal Meta’s bittersweet photo-album of a love story that has run its course. Through a rapid-fire list of seasons, shared apartments, late-night spaghetti and rain-soaked goodbyes, the singer pieces together the everyday snapshots that make a relationship feel infinite while it lasts. The song moves like a conversation in the kitchen: intimate, tender, a little chaotic. Meta lingers on the tiny rituals – turning off a noisy lamp, packing clothes into seven bags, humming half-written melodies – to show how ordinary moments can be the most heartbreaking when love starts to fade.

Under the gentle pop arrangement hides a storm of feelings. Tears become “just water with salt,” yet each one maps a step the couple took together, each drop echoing those love songs they once stayed up all night to hear. Even as they separate, the narrator insists that caring for himself still happens “through you,” hinting at love’s stubborn afterglow. "9 Primavere" is a tender reminder that endings don’t erase the seasons shared; they simply fold into the soundtrack of who we become, one quiet love song at a time.
