Certo ci fu qualche tempesta
Of course there was some storm
Anni d'amore alla follia
Years of Love for Madness
Mille volte tu dicesti basta
A thousand times you said enough
Mille volte io me ne andai via
A thousand times I left
Ed ogni mobile ricorda
And every piece of furniture remembers
In questa stanza senza culla
In this cradleless room
I lampi dei vecchi contrasti
The flashes of old contrasts
Non c'era più una cosa giusta
There was no one right thing anymore
Avevi perso il tuo calore
You lost your heat
Ed io la febbre di conquista
And I the fever of conquest
Mio amore mio dolce mio meraviglioso amore
My love my sweet my wonderful love
Dall'alba chiara finché il giorno muore
From clear dawn until the day dies
Ti amo ancora sai ti amo
I still love you you know I love you
So tutto delle tue magie
I know all about your magic
E tu della mia intimità
And you of my intimacy
Sapevo delle tue bugie
I knew about your lies
Tu delle mie tristi viltà
You of my sad cowardice
So che hai avuto degli amanti
I know you've had lovers
Bisogna pur passare il tempo
You have to pass the time
Bisogna pur che il corpo esulti
It is necessary for the body to exult
Ma c'é voluto del talento
But it took talent
Per riuscire ad invecchiare senza diventare adulti
To be able to grow old without becoming an adult
Mio amore mio dolce mio meraviglioso amore
My love my sweet my wonderful love
Dall'alba chiara finché il giorno muore
From clear dawn until the day dies
Ti amo ancora sai ti amo
I still love you you know I love you
Il tempo passa e ci scoraggia
Time passes and discourages us
Tormenti sulla nostra via
Torments on our way
Ma dimmi c'é peggior insidia
But tell me there's a worse pitfall
Che amarsi con monotonia
That loving one's with monotony
Adesso piangi molto dopo
Now you cry a lot later
Io mi dispero con ritardo
I despair late
Non abbiamo più misteri
We have no more mysteries
Si lascia meno fare al caso
You let the case less
Scendiamo a patti con la terra
Let's come down to terms with the earth
Però é la stessa dolce guerra
But it's the same sweet war
Mon amour
Mon Amour, 1
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
Mon doux, mon tendre, mon merveilleux amour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
De l'aube claire jusqu'à la fin du jour
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
Je t'aime encore, tu sais, je t'aime
