Jenny ha 16 anni e gli occhi blu
Jenny is 16 years old and blue eyes
Con i suoi capelli come il grano va
With his hair as the grain goes
A piedi nudi verso una citta'
Barefoot to a city
Cercando il viso di un ragazzo che non sogna piu'
Looking for the face of a guy who no longer dreams
Stringe in mano la fotografia
Hold the photograph in your hand
Ma dove puo' trovarlo jenny non lo sa
But where jenny can find it, she doesn't know
Spinta da una cosmica energia
Driven by cosmic energy
Vede un corpo soffocato da quest'arida realta'
He sees a body suffocated by this arid reality
Riconosce che es lui
He acknowledges that he
Perche' non ride mai
Because he never laughs
Jenny es un'isola
Jenny es an island
Dei naufraghi
Of the castaways
Che brillera'
What a briller'
Nei momenti piu' bui
In the darkest moments
Jenny lo accompagna a casa sua
Jenny accompanies him to his house
Sente i suoi pensieri e la malinconia
He feels his thoughts and melancholy
Che lo affoga come una marea
Drowning him like a tide
E gli salva il cuore dal dolore della sua follia
And it saves his heart from the pain of his madness
Mentre il mondo va via
As the world goes away
Senza avere pieta'
Without mercy
Jenny es unancora
Jenny es unancora
La terra a prua
The Earth at the Bow
Es una nuvola
E.g. a cloud
Che piovera'
That's going to rain
Es una favola e sta
Es a fairy tale and it's
Dentro questa realta'
Inside this reality
Per lui per lui
For him for him
Jenny es l'africa
Jenny es l'africa
E'una briciola
It's a crumb
Che sfamera'
What a feed he's going to have
Jenny es un cielo blu
Jenny es a blue sky
Es un miracolo
E.g. a miracle
Es un attimo
E.g. for a moment
Che si accende per lui
That lights up for him
Nei momenti piu' bui
In the darkest moments
Jenny ha 16 anni e se ne va
Jenny is 16 years old and leaves
Camminando a piedi nudi e non lo sa
Walking barefoot and doesn't know
Che es un'angelo
That e.g. an angel
