Hours so slow and relentless
Cross the silence of my sky
Then suddenly hide
Behind clouds that rip the calm
Feel them rise again when everything
Seems to have found the right weight
Want to steal them from time
To give it a whole new meaning
Distracted, stupid and stubborn
As always, I try to do it
I've decided to stop it
So I can have you again
Don't say a word
Hoping nobody notices
I tore away even the last half-hour
Thinking it's the only way
To feel you close again
Ever more stupid and stubborn
As always, I do it again
And again to stop it
And be able to tell you again
Between clouds and sheets
Don't do it for an hour
Don't ever do it for now
Then hold me tight
Between clouds and sheets
Don't say a word
Don't say a word
Don't say a
Hours so slow and stainless
Cross the silence of my sky
And suddenly hide
Behind clouds that rip the calm
You feel them surface when everything
Everything seems to have found the right weight
Want to steal them from time
To give it yet another meaning again
Then hold me
Between clouds and sheets
Don't say a word
Don't ever do it for now
Hug me again
Between clouds and sheets
Don't say a word
Don't say a word
Don't say a word
Outro
Hours so slow and stainless
Cross the silence of my sky
And suddenly hide
Behind clouds that rip the calm
You feel them surface when everything
Seems to have found the right weight
Want to steal them from time
To give it yet another meaning again

SONG MEANING

Nuvole e Lenzuola paints a cinematic scene where time itself becomes the villain. The singer watches the hours drift lazily across a silent sky, only to see them vanish behind stormy clouds. Instead of accepting that steady march of minutes, he hatches a daring plan: steal time so he can dive back under the sheets with the person he loves. In this dreamlike hide-out, words are useless; what matters is the hush between two heartbeats, the feeling of floating between “clouds and bed-sheets.”

The repeated plea “Non dire una parola” (Don’t say a word) turns the song into an intimate vow to freeze the perfect moment. He knows he is “stupido e testardo” (stupid and stubborn) for trying, yet he keeps doing it anyway, convinced that love can bend the clock. The result is a romantic rebellion against reality, where silence speaks louder than dialogue and every stolen second feels infinite.
