Il Mio Pensiero Lyrics in English by Ligabue
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Il Mio Pensiero by Ligabue from Italian to English.
Cosa c'entra questo cielo lucido
What's this clear sky got to do with it?
Che non è mai stato così blu
That's never been so blue
E che se ne frega delle nuvole
And that doesn't care about the clouds
Mentre qui manchi tu
While you're not here
Pomeriggio spompo di domenica
A drained Sunday afternoon
Come fanno gli altri a stare su
How do others manage to be up?
Non arriva neanche un po' di musica
Not even a bit of music arrives
Quando qui manchi tu
When you're not here
E adesso che sei dovunque sei
And now that you are, wherever you are
Chissà se ti arriva il mio pensiero
Who knows if my thought reaches you
Chissà se ne ridi o se ti fa piacere
Who knows if you laugh about it or if it pleases you
Cosa c'entra quel tramonto inutile
What's that useless sunset got to do with it?
Non ha l'aria di finire più
It doesn't look like it's going to end anymore
E ci tiene a dare il suo spettacolo
And it insists on putting on its show
Mentre qui, manchi tu
While here, you're not here
Così solo da provare panico
So alone I feel panic
E c'è qualcun'altra qui con me
And there's someone else here with me
Devo avere proprio un'aria stupida
I must really have a stupid look
Sai com'è, manchi te
You know how it is, you're not here
E adesso che sei, dovunque sei
And now that you are, wherever you are
Chissà se ti arriva il mio pensiero
Who knows if my thought reaches you
Chissà se ne ridi o se ti fa piacere
Who knows if you laugh about it or if it pleases you
E adesso che sei dovunque sei
And now that you are, wherever you are
Ridammelo indietro il mio pensiero
Give my thought back to me
Dev'esserci un modo per lasciarmi andare
There must be a way to let myself go
Cosa c'entra questa notte giovane
What's this young night got to do with it?
Non mi cambia niente la TV
The TV doesn't change anything for me
E che tristezza che mi fa quel comico
And what sadness that comedian causes me
Quando qui manchi tu
When you're not here
E adesso che sei dovunque sei
And now that you are, wherever you are
Chissà se ti arriva il mio pensiero
Who knows if my thought reaches you
Chissà se ne ridi o se ti fa piacere
Who knows if you laugh about it or if it pleases you
E adesso che sei dovunque sei
And now that you are, wherever you are
Ridammelo indietro il mio pensiero
Give my thought back to me
Dev'esserci un modo per lasciarmi andare
There must be a way to let myself go

Did you like this lyrics translation?
spompo — drained / deflated
Spompo is an informal and evocative Italian adjective that means 'drained', 'deflated', or 'lacking energy'. It's not a word you hear every day, making it quite unique and memorable.
In the song, Ligabue uses it to describe a 'pomeriggio spompo di domenica' (a drained Sunday afternoon), perfectly capturing the feeling of lethargy and emptiness when a loved one is absent. It paints a vivid picture of a day that feels flat and uninspired.
