When you read my palm

you saw a thousand problems and a thousand troubles

You should've stayed away from me

But you told me you never run away

We broke up and got back together

like Cirque du Soleil trapeze artists

but we never gave up

We counted the stars like they were moles

of a story as extraordinary as it is messed up

when we let a bit of water run under the bridge

like good friends do

or the streets of Paris

to feel better

I know you laughed when I said I've got

three hearts inside my chest

but now, no, I don't know which one I'll follow

because it feels pointless

and you know I use one to laugh on holidays

the second keeps me hanging on in a stormy sea

and my last heart I must force to forget your name

It won't

Damn third heart

I think I've got a talent

for turning challenges into f*ck-ups by now

I don't know what I feel anymore, no

and I only watch crime shows

I'll fool myself there's a culprit for every hurt, yeah

Yeah, but it's a lie 'cause things often just happen, amen

It was a story as extraordinary as it was messed up

when we let a bit of water run under the bridge

like good friends do

or the streets of Paris

to feel better

I know you laughed when I said I've got

three hearts inside my chest

but now, no, I don't know which one I'll follow

because it feels pointless

and you know I use one to laugh on holidays

the second keeps me hanging on in a stormy sea

and my last heart I must force to forget your name

It won't

Damn third heart

I don't care about being right if I always end up alone

Better to be wrong with you (with you)

Maybe you're flying in a better sky but I swear I won't leave you

You're my third heart

I know you laughed when I said I've got

three hearts inside my chest

but now, no, I don't know which one I'll follow

because it feels pointless

and you know I use one to laugh on holidays

the second keeps me hanging on in a stormy sea

and my last heart I must force to forget your name

It won't

Damn third heart

Terzo Cuore is Leo Gassmann’s playful confession about juggling feelings that just will not stay in their lane. After a fortune-teller spots “a thousand problems” in his palm, the singer dives into a roller-coaster romance that breaks, mends, and flips through the air like Cirque du Soleil acrobats. He claims to have three hearts inside his chest: one that laughs on holidays, one that keeps him afloat in stormy seas, and a stubborn third that refuses to forget the person he loves. The song turns that quirky image into a catchy metaphor for how we split ourselves between joy, resilience, and heartbreak while trying to move on.

Behind the lighthearted tone sits a bittersweet truth: some connections feel impossible to quit, no matter how sensible it would be. Gassmann mixes humor with vulnerability, admitting he would rather be “wrong with you” than right and alone. By the end, the “cursed third heart” becomes both a curse and a badge of loyalty, reminding us that even in the messiest love stories, caring deeply is what makes us human.
