Per Sempre Lyrics in English by Ligabue
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Per Sempre by Ligabue from Italian to English.
Mio padre che mi spinge a mangiare
My father who pushes me to eat
E guai se non finisco
And trouble if I don't finish
Mio padre che vuol farmi guidare
My father who wants me to drive
Mi frena con il fischio
He stops me with a whistle
Il bambino più grande mi mena
The older kid beats me up
Davanti a tutti gli altri
In front of all the others
Lui che passa per caso mi salva
He who happens to pass by saves me
E mi condanna per sempre
And condemns me forever
Mio padre di spalle sul piatto
My father with his back to the plate
Si mangia la vita
He devours life
E poi sulla pista da ballo
And then on the dance floor
Fa un valzer dentro il suo nuovo vestito
He waltzes in his new suit
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
Cosa sarà mai provarti dentro solo tutto il tempo
What will it ever be like to feel you inside all the time
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
C'è un istante che rimane lì piantato eternamente
There's an instant that stays stuck there forever
E lei che non si lascia afferrare
And she who doesn't let herself be caught
Si piega indietro e ride
She bends back and laughs
E lei che dice quanto mi ama
And she who says how much she loves me
E io che mi fido
And I who trust her
E lei che mi toccava per prima
And she who touched me first
La sua mano bambina
Her childish hand
Vuole che le giuri qualcosa
She wants me to swear something to her
Le si gonfia una vena
A vein swells on her
E lei che era troppo più forte
And she who was much stronger
Sicura di tutto
Sure of everything
E prima di andarsene mi dà il profilo
And before leaving she shows me her profile
Con un movimento perfetto
With a perfect movement
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
Cosa sarà mai portarvi dentro solo tutto il tempo
What will it ever be like to carry you inside all the time
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
C'è un istante che rimane lì piantato eternamente
There's an instant that stays stuck there forever
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
Mia madre che prepara la cena
My mother who prepares dinner
Cantando Sanremo
Singing Sanremo
Carezza la testa a mio padre
She caresses my father's head
Gli dice vedrai che ce la faremo
She tells him, "You'll see, we'll make it"
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
Cosa sarà mai portarvi dentro solo tutto il tempo
What will it ever be like to carry you inside all the time
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
C'è un istante che rimane lì piantato eternamente
There's an instant that stays stuck there forever
Per sempre
Forever
Solo per sempre
Only forever
