Solo Due Satelliti Lyrics in English Marco Mengoni

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Solo Due Satelliti by Marco Mengoni from Italian to English.
Which part of the body
Could we meet
Without going far
So we can brush against each other
I smelled your hands
And I felt you love me
I kissed you on the eyes
And now you recognize me
Like when I wanted to meet you even by accident
Through the streets of a town I didn't even know
I'd get lost but was sure that every time I'd find you again
Like that night when you said, I want to go away
I slammed this door and that's it, so be it
A moment later you'd gotten lost and I was already looking for you in the streets
There's no place where this crazy love of ours can stop
Which part of the world
Could we leave each other
To go far away
Never to come back
I let go of your hands
To forget tomorrow
And I lost you in your eyes
While I already missed you
Like when I wanted to meet you even by accident
Through the streets of a town I didn't even know
I'd get lost but was sure that every time I'd find you again
Like that night when you said, I want to go away
And I closed my eyes with my head down, so be it
A moment later you'd gotten lost
And I was already searching for you in the streets
There's no place where this mad love of ours can end
There's no room for shade where the sun beats hard
We're just two satellites who'll think they're free
On this orbit we spin without ever getting out
And like that night when you said, I want to go away
I slammed this door and that's enough, so be it
A moment later you'd gotten lost and I was already looking for you in the streets
There's no place where this crazy love of ours can stop
There's no room for shade where the sun beats hard
We're just two satellites
Who'll think they're free
On this orbit we spin
Never getting out of it
Out

SONG MEANING

“Solo Due Satelliti” paints the picture of two lovers who keep circling each other like celestial bodies that can never truly drift apart. Marco Mengoni fills the lyrics with vivid, almost cinematic snapshots: the perfume left on someone’s hands, a goodbye whispered behind closed doors, frantic searches through unfamiliar streets. Every moment shouts the same message—no matter how far they run, their gravitational pull drags them back together.

The song balances tender intimacy and restless urgency. One second the couple wonders where on earth they might meet just to share a soft touch, the next they are imagining a place far enough to end it forever. Yet their love is “folle” (crazy) and “pazzo” (mad), refusing to find such a place. They are “solo due satelliti,” seemingly free yet forever bound to the same orbit, spinning through break-ups, reunions, and raw emotions that never truly let go.
