Destinazione Paradiso Lyrics in English Gianluca Grignani

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Destinazione Paradiso by Gianluca Grignani from Italian to English.
A journey makes sense only
With no way back unless by flight
No stops or borders
Just horizons not even that far
In this merry-go-round of souls
Whoever turns back gets lost and stays here
I know it for sure, buddy
I turned back too
And to reach you I had to run
But the more I look around I see that
There's a world that keeps going even if
You're not here anymore
You're not here anymore
And tell me why
In this merry-go-round of souls there's not
A place to shake off
What we've been told and
What by now everyone knows
So you know what
There's, that's it
I'm catching a train that goes
To Paradise City
I wave goodbye to you all and hop on
I take the train and don't think anymore
A journey makes sense only
With no way back unless by flight
No stops or borders
Just horizons not even that far
I'll grab my seat
And you sitting there by my side
Will tell me "destination paradise"
A journey makes sense only
With no way back unless by flight
No stops or borders
Just horizons not even that far
I'll grab my seat
And you sitting there by my side
Will tell me "destination paradise"
There's, that's it
I'm catching a train that goes
To Paradise City
I'll grab my seat
And you sitting there by my side
Will tell me "destination paradise"
Paradise City

SONG MEANING

Destinazione Paradiso is a vibrant anthem of escape, renewal and hope. Gianluca Grignani imagines life as a never-ending carousel of souls: if you turn back, you get stuck. So he decides to keep moving, chasing horizons “without stops or borders” on a one-way journey that only returns by flight. The world rolls on even when loved ones disappear, and the only way not to be left behind is to leap forward.

Tired of old labels and expectations, the singer dreams up a train to Paradiso città—not some distant afterlife, but a fresh start where pain and judgment stay off the tracks. He grabs a seat, invites a companion to sit beside him and together they race toward a brighter tomorrow. The song urges us to drop our baggage, trust our own momentum and believe that paradise can be the very next station we choose.
