Non Mi Ami Lyrics in English Giorgia

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Non Mi Ami by Giorgia from Italian to English.
I hope you won't hold it against me later
I'm not the image you have of me
Can't you see you're searching
for control over my thoughts and over me
and you lose me
It really doesn't matter
If you took the best part of me
But you really thought
that I'd be there for you
Air, the excuse
Loyalty
Illusory purity and you over there
You don't love me
Because you don't love me
You don't love me
No, you don't love me like that
I was a knot tied around you
What I know I sure don't owe to you
Desire, anger
Your weapons on my thoughts and on me
and you lose me
It really doesn't matter
If you took the best part of me
But you really thought
that I'd be there for you
Air, the excuse, loyalty
Illusory purity, you over there
You won't be there
In my years, in my conversations
You know only time
takes and gives
I shut off my tears
Now it's possible
I've wasted them on you
You can't cheat me
It really doesn't matter
If you took the best part of me
But you really thought
that I'd be there for you
Air, the excuse, loyalty
Illusory purity and you over there
Air, the excuse, loyalty
Illusory purity and you over there
You don't love me
Because you don't love me
You don't love me
No, you don't love me like that
You don't love me
You don't love me
You don't love me

SONG MEANING

Imagine realizing mid-dance that your partner isn’t really holding you, only gripping you so you don’t move away. That’s the punchy revelation at the heart of Non Mi Ami ("You Don’t Love Me"), where Italian vocal powerhouse Giorgia calls out a lover who prefers control over connection. With raw honesty she lists the weapons used against her—doubts, jealousy, and sweetly disguised manipulation—then calmly points out the cost: "E perdi me" ("And you lose me").

The track flips from heartbreak to empowerment as Giorgia wipes away tears, shuts off the emotional tap, and walks into a future where she chooses who gets the best of her. It’s a liberating anthem wrapped in a silky, soulful melody: proof that sometimes the greatest act of love is reclaiming it for yourself.
