Nei Tuoi Occhi Lyrics in English Francesca Michielin

Home / Lyrics Translation / Francesca Michielin / Nei Tuoi Occhi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nei Tuoi Occhi by Francesca Michielin from Italian to English.

When you look at me, maybe you notice

You pass through me and reach the bottom of my memories

I dive into your eyes, I swim inside

Till I feel I'm not touching anymore

I dive into your eyes and when you cry

Like hail you knock me down

There are no excuses

In my head a thousand things explode and I tumble like dominoes

Like a thousand roses

Blooming in an exotic garden of falling petals

You'll never bore me

Free my wings, tear my heart open, take it all

Throw me your looks like firecrackers when it's dark outside

I don't know anymore the things I can't say

You give me a voice every day so I can shout them

Free my wings, you try

When you talk to me, I don't know what you're thinking

You practically punch every word you say

I dive into your eyes, I sink a bit

I can't fake like you do

I dive into your eyes and if I stay afloat

Maybe I won't see you anymore

Free my wings, tear my heart open, take it all

Tear the fears away, take me somewhere else where it's not dark

A bunch of things I can't say

You give me a voice every day so I can shout them

Like a flare burst in my heart, you give me the strength to say

That there's everything to do

Free my wings, tear my heart open, take it all

Throw me your looks like firecrackers when it's dark outside

Outro

Free my wings, you try

Free my wings, save me

SONG MEANING

Nei Tuoi Occhi is a whirlpool of feelings where love becomes both playground and battlefield. Francesca Michielin sings about plunging head-first into someone’s gaze, swimming through memories, fears and sparks of passion. Those eyes are an ocean: comforting when calm, unsettling when storms hit. Every look can lift her sky-high or drop her like hail, yet she keeps diving back because that emotional tide also tears away her doubts and hands her a louder voice.

At its heart the song celebrates the power of a relationship that frees rather than cages. The lover’s stare is compared to fireworks, exotic gardens and rose petals—images that shout color, danger and discovery all at once. By asking to have her wings unfastened and her heart ripped open, the singer embraces vulnerability as the price for genuine connection. The result is an anthem to fearless love: messy, explosive and brilliantly alive.
