Settembre Lyrics in English Gazzelle

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Settembre by Gazzelle from Italian to English.
Have you ever seen a house
And dreamed of going in?
The smell of the sea and of a summer that's dying and of a star that's falling
So you can wish
That's better than having, that's better than doing
September's a sh*tty month to start over
Starting to come back
Starting to look
A thousand dreams in your eyes and a pair of broken glasses
And a song to write
So you can lighten it up
That's better than hating, that's better than loving
September's a sh*tty month to start over
But everything's more beautiful if you see it from here
Yeah, my eyes with yours
Way better than a movie
Have you ever seen a house
And dreamed of going in?
Forgiving your dad
Putting off commitments
And staying to talk
So you can forget
That's better than saying, that's better than doing
September's a perfect month to start over
But everything's more beautiful
If you see it from here
Yeah, my eyes with yours
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
Way better than a movie
But everything's more beautiful
If you see it from here
Yeah, my eyes with yours
Way better than a movie

SONG MEANING

Settembre feels like that very first breath you take when summer finishes and the air suddenly smells of the sea, wet asphalt and new plans. Gazzelle wanders through a half-dream, half-memory where even looking at a welcoming house, or watching a shooting star, is sweeter than actually grabbing what you want. September might seem like a “crappy month” to begin again, yet the singer reminds us that everything looks brighter when two people share the same view — your eyes and mine, side by side, turn real life into something better than a movie.

The lyrics juggle contrasts: desire over possession, joking over hating, forgiving over judging. By letting go of pressure, postponing chores, and simply staying up talking, we discover a gentler restart button hidden in the ordinary. September, with all its bittersweet baggage, becomes the perfect time to reboot not because it is flawless, but because imperfection lets dreams fit more comfortably. That mix of melancholy and hope is exactly what makes the song feel like the end credits of summer and the opening scene of something wonderfully unknown.
